Hi Ladies,
Well the time has come for me to post my hair journey through 2008.
In January 2008, I really started developing my hair regime and joined Emih19 Super 3m challenge. This challenge really helped me to develop a routine and start learning about my hair.
Here is my hair in Jan 08:
Braided out flat-ironed hair
My standard twistouts
In March, I finally took the plunge into the Henna world. Thanks MsToya. Initially I hated it. I couldn't figure out how to get all the grit out. But after getting more info, I can now say I've perfected the Henna application.
I looked so silly!!
In May, I placed my hair in my first set of mini-twist and loved them. I need to do this again. I also did my first official length check.
My mini-twist
May growth check
In June, I started the Twisting for Growth challenge. I did it for 3m and my hair really thrived. Even met 2 LHCF members (Loo and Naturalgurl!!!). Thanks ladies
Took a break from the twist and did a puff ponytail
In Sept, I did my other growth check and started to wear my hair in a wash and go style, and started to focus on a cowash challenge. Thanks Who!!! I also started using a rosemary-sage spritz mix on my hair. Thanks Bunnie!!
My growth early Sept
I also started to experiment with more afro styles:
In Sept-Dec., I started to really tweek my regime. Started adding tea mixes and vaseline to my regime. I even developed a natural homemade hair mask that has done wonders for my hair. Thanks Sam for showing me that it's OKAY to make my own stuff
My hair with my homemade mask
On the go easy style
Twist on dry hair and vaseline applied for extra sheen. Thanks Finally Free!!!
End of year growth!!!!
I wanted to thank everyone for all their words for wisdom. I have truly learned a lot from you guys. Here's to a wonderful 2008 and I am looking forward to my hair journey in 2009!!!!!!!
