My progress then and now.

[RosesBlack]

I just snapped a starting point photo for the shoulder length challenge and I wanted to share how far I've come in two years. Excuse the crap quality I have a cheap webcam.

That was the big chop in April 04. I cut off about six inches, relaxed bleached and dyed it purple. Bad I know but I loved it.

Taken just now. I am about 7 weeks post relaxer.

And one more of my shine because I'm proud.

THanks

My hair has been a ton of colors but the purple was my favorite. I miss it but I don't miss the whole process. I colored it every two weeks and oi what a pain.

But the health I have now way more than makes up for it.

Great Progress!!!!!!

bold coloring can look really cute on short hair and especially if you are keeping it short. so now that you are growing your hair out I take it you are easing up on the coloring?

BTW you have some really great progress girl. Keep up whatever you are doing.

Thanks so much!



I haven't colored my hair in a really long time. I did a few other chops between the first and last pictures but never thought to take photos.

My "natural" color (been dying my hair for so long I think my hair forgot that it was black. It's grown back a sort of dark brown/auburnish.

The urge to color is strong. I've been trying to talk myself out of dying it burgundy for about three months now.

If you want color...you can either do a rinse or use henna....I am also wanting to color but was told that either using a rinse or henna is a safe way of coloring without damaging my hair.

I'm going to try and get full head pics this weekend. I'm relaxing tomorrow and it won't be quite so fluffy. I'm excited my hair hasn't been this long in years and years.
