Alright ladies, I decided against getting a perm and I did it! I finally did the BC and had all of the perm cut off of my head. It's official, I am 100% natural.

My cousin shampoo'd me, blew me dry and lightly pressed my hair for an accurate trim. Here is the results:

Girl, your hair is lovely!!!!! I am glad you didn't get a relaxer bc you don't need one!!!:nono: YOur hair looks so healthy and thick!!! CONGRATULATIONS ON THE BC!!!!

I think that you need to find the right moisturizing products for your hair to give it that silky sheen and you will be happy with your hair! :yep: Have you tried the Organic Root Stimulator line? Their stuff works good on my hair, but I'm also relaxed. I have heard, though, that some ladies with natural hair like it, too. I think MissAmerAKA uses it and her hair is natural, too.

I am sooo down for drinking as much water as possible! I just got engaged and although we haven't set a date yet, i need to get on track as far as the weight and hair growth is concerned...this challenge is a GOD SEND!
My birthday is June 19 and I hope to be a lot closer to APL by then. My dream is to be able to do a braid out and wear it down so hopefully i can reach that goal by then!

Congrats on the engagement!!! :grin: So far, I am meeting the goals of the water challenge!

Thanks so much guys!!! I really appreciate it! :thankyou:

Okay: my updates!! Today i drank 5 bottles of water...yes, FIVE! And its only 5:13!! I haven't had any juice all day, which is a major feat for me! I'm getting really good results from my frequent co washing (with LTR)..I'm wearing a braidout right now, and will probably rock it until at least Saturday when i have some free time...Oh yeah, I feel WONDERFUL! Definitely think it has to do with my increased water intake (i wasn't feeling my best all weekend)!

Thanx and I was shocked it came out like that bc I relaxed in December bone straight but its going on 2 months and I have lots of NG.

I DC'd with Silicon Mix and mega thick and con with my fav HE Breaks Over and the breaks over leave in and it turned out like that...

Ooh Pr3tty!!! You hair is sooooo pr3tty!!!!!:grin: If my hair curled like that, I wouldn't have to spend hours doin this twistout!!

:lachen:That was really funny... My hair never curled like that b4 but I loved it only thing is it does not last so I still have to do twistout... I wish it would stay a few days that would be great

I tried the HE break over this weekend. It worked great! I am not seeing much breakage as before and my hair feels stronger. Last week, each time I touched my hair, I had a couple of broken strands in my hand. Now, when I touch it or hold it, I am not seeing much, if any breakage. Thanks so much for the advice. I really appreciate it!:yep:

I was wondering what do you consider three bottles. Would that be 3 bottles of the regular 1.00- 1.25 size poland spring bottles? I have the larger poland spring bottle which is 1.5L (1QT, 1Pt, 2.7 FL Oz) is that enough?
Click to expand...

Yea the regular bottle
 
I am sad 2 report I drank a half bottle of water today :sad:

I tried I really hate water but Im gonna try harder

On the bright side I had no soda and that was hard bc I loveeeee soda

I will try really hard 2morrow

Thanks for the compliment sis, that really means alot! :yep:

The only ORS item that I have tried is the Mayo and that is a Protein treatment. Any ORS suggestions? MissAmerAKA or anyone who uses ORS please chime in.

Thanks!
