Dang girl! Your hair got straight! Did she have any issues with your ends? This is the section of my hair that refuses to get straight.

No, she didn't! I am TELLING YOU, their technique is very good (along with their products and tools). They HAVE to be-cuz my hair is VERY unruly. She DID tell me that she wanted to cut THREE INCHES off, though :eek: :eek: :eek: After I fussed and fretted about it and told her how I was growing my hair out we were able to compromise on ONE inch lol :lol:

Your hair is beautiful! r u sure that's only an inch growth? :look: looks like more to me...

Thanks!

I did get an inch cut off so I might have grown an actual 2 inches of hair. But I don't think I see more than one inch difference in the pics. I was looking really hard and it looks like my head is tilted back a little further in the newest pic, which is why I wouldn't think it was more than an extra one inch worth of growth ;)

Well even after your trim, you've still made great progress. Congrats! Hopefully my hair will be that long and healthy one day...
:) Keep up the good work!
 
Your hair looks good. I bet you're glad you finally got off your tush and went. I love Too Groovy. My hair looks some fierce when I go to them plus my stylist caters to my needs! $95 is a bit much though! I only paid $125 for Robin who is/was a Master stylist and that included everything. Nowadays, I pay $65 for a wash/condition, hydration treatment, and trim!!!

I go to the Buckhead location and I use Kenya! I'm natural and I have some nappy arse hair in the back but the top and front part is much better but still.............. I've been going to them since I chopped off my relaxed ends so maybe its my veteran discount for being a loyal customer!
 
Ure hair looks amazing!!!! :D I love the fullness and body, and its sooo silky!!!! Gorgeous!!!!

Thanks for sharing!!!!!!!!!:grin:

This was my first visit! I was verrrry pleased. If you do go please tell them you referred by "Jade". The stylist who did my hair was "Akelah", but there is a separate thread in the Salon forum that mentions other stylists to go to that are also good.

Yes, I'm natural. My last relaxer was summer of 01. I transitioned through end of December 01 and big chopped the last week of December 01. I got:

-Wash & deep condition
-Hydration treatment
-Blowdry & press
-Trim

The total was SUPPOSED to be $95 but Akelah gave me a slight discount (it was a treat to me as a new client I guess).

The whole appointment was only 1 hour and 45 minutes long. The detanlging process felt sooo much better than how my old stylist used to do it-it hardly felt like she was detangling it. I came in with dry and tangled hair that had been in a bun and left with bouncy bouncy curls.

Thank you. I will be sure to tell them that you referred me!!! Do you think she is the type to try and convince you to get a cut rather than a trim. I want to go to someone who would trim, and not cut...even if it needed it!
 
Your pics made me depressed.


Translation: Absolutely beautiful. I only wish my hair was that length. With patience and a few years, it'll get there.

Well, I'll put it this way. She told me she wanted to TRIM three inches off, and I really don't see how 3 inches could EVER be a trim. I was going to get charged for a trim even if she did cut 3 inches because to her, that "would" be a trim.

But I tried my best to very politely explain that I did not want to do that. And she was okay with that. (She DID suggest that I come back 2 more times over the next few weeks to get the other 2 inches cut off and I said "ok"----but I'm not going to do that. I just don't see WHY I would need to.)

I really can't explain why she wanted me to trim off 2 more inches. I didn't have 3 inches worth of damaged hair (in my opinion). But to be honest, I've experienced this with other stylists. You just have to make it clear what you want/don't want. ;)

Thanks! :D

Oh, and please don't be depressed! As I was posting the pics online and looking at the comparison I kept thinking "man my hair grows so slow"! I should be waistlength by now!

But I try to focus on how far I've COME, which keeps me going. So you're right-with patience and time, you will soon be on your way to achieving your hair length goals ;) HHG....
