Sigh.... ok.... I'm holding on to my faith! Here's the story:
About nine months into transition out of relaxers. For the first five months, I got my hair pressed, then went into a variety of braids and weaves. I just took a weave out yesterday after three weeks. Looks like growth is evident around the perimeter and nape (my edges/temples are thicker than before, but there's still room for more growth). I have about 3 inches of new growth and about 3-4 inches of relaxed ends (mainly located at the top/front).
Not sure if it's lack of growth of shrinkage in the crown area. I do not see split or damaged ends, although I haven't had a trim in a while. It's very easy to detangle. I did a deep treatment overnight and this morning I plan to shampoo and condition and use curly phony pony (?). I'll do this for a couple of weeks and probably go back into a weave in early August.
So is it really growing? I've upped my multivitamin....
Thanks in advance for the insight.
