I think I'm gonna try to transition! I'm 2 months and some weeks. I have a ticker in my siggy. I hope to go 24 months but I would rather not every cut, just let the relaxed, texlaxed hair shed naturally. Wish me luck!
Mrs.J,
OMG!!! Congrats on your BC! Please post pics here, because I am never going on Fotki again!
Darn, am I the only one that is trying to last 18 months?
yeah, well, im sorta still deciding, but while im deciding i'm also not relaxing and falling more in love with my new growth everyday so. . .
It's going good so far. no major problems. I just want to master some styles that will allow me to transition and maintain neat looking hair the whole time.

14 months post TODAY and I..................................................
BIG CHOPPED! I said I would go for 2 years but my nape and most of the middle was natural. I only had the top to cut. I only added 1 pic to my fotki (see below), since I've had a problem with viruses on fotki this week. I will add more pics and let you know.
I'm very happy! Especially since I can make a ponytail by braiding it back on the sides and gathering the rest of my hair.

There are a lot of us in this thread and we're at different stages of transitioning so feel free to ask questions.
As for your question about twist outs: I found that my braidouts stopped looking good (IMO) after 10 months post. The humidity would hit the NG and *poof* --- and you could see the two different textures. Part of the reason for this is probably because I still had a lot of relaxed hair, magnifying the difference.
Other ladies please chime in if you had a different experience.

I agree....but my braidouts (21 months post/5 inches relaxed hair) make the best puffs! Everyone thinks its a faux pony lol...I live in an area with 100% humidity so I rarely attempt to wear a braid-out down...
