My daughter\'s journey-Thanks LHCF!
It seems like just yesterday when I debated as to whether or not I should relax my daughter's hair. At the time she was nine. With her thick hair and major shrinkage, wash day was something that was to be carefully planned and not rushed into. Extra care would have to be taken in the care of her hair. Going into my 6th month of pregnancy and constantly feeling physically worn out (nothing to do with her hair, but pregnancy in general... Ladies, I was carrying a LOAD. Let's just say I gave birth to a nine pound baby, so you know what I was working with!
), I decided to let my daughter get her first relaxer. As the chemical was being applied, I wondered to myself whether or not I made a mistake I'd later regret. On the other hand, I knew I was armed with a wealth of knowledge from my sisters at LHCF and BHCAB. I thank all of you as this knowledge has paid off. Here's the link <font color="red">Miss K's Journey</font> or please see my album in my signature and check out my daughter's hair album entitled "Miss K's Journey" should in case this direct link not work. She just got a relaxer on Friday past. The amount of growth is so phenomenal. At the rate she's going, does this mean she'll be past her "imaginary" brastrap soon? (She'll soon be wearing a bra... at 10 she has now entered what I call her "niblets" stage.
) She's pretty tall and I know she'll end up taller than me. Does her growth look so phenomenal because she's not yet 5'8"? That's my height.... Ok, it's late and I'm rambling. Just wanted to say a great big "Thank you" to my sisters here at LHCF and BHCAB for arming me with all of the tools necessary to take both mine and my daughter's haircare into my own hands.
(((((Group Hug))))) I only see a hairdresser for relaxers. Everything else I do myself. Oh, yeah... her hair type is like lil' pen coils in it's natural state.... I believe that's 4a.
I hope yahoo ain't acting up so ya'll can see the pics. I'm in the process of switching over to fotki.
