Hi everyone, In another week I will apply my relaxer Phytospecific Index 2 after 6 months of ng....My hair touches my shoulders so I am in beginning phase SL,working on my next 2nd phase of full SL

taken 1/09

taken 3/22/09
I use Le Kair styling gel for dry hair. I kept it in a bun %99.9 and I used Amla oil mixed with gel alternating with brillantina leave in gel...the gel has aloe vera, and it kept my hair managable with the ng....

I finally got the chance to update my siggy and take a picture of my progress. I'm not sure I'm getting the progress I should be getting? I've been out of my weaves for almost 7 months or so now. I really want to get another one because I'm not really seeing much of a big difference. What do you all think from looking at my siggy and these photos? The first is January, the second is April. I feel like I should be growing more though???

Here's my update pic after a DC and roller set.

Checking in. Last week, I dyed it black and took a length shot. I'm not sure how to post pics in the message so I changed my siggy to the new pic. I tried to do Bantu knots earlier this week. Let's just say I need a lot more practice. I'm back to the wash and go today. Ladies you all keep me inspired. HHG

BTW I switched to Optimum Anti breakage relaxer which I officially love

Ok, I tried one last time to get a pic and here it is (sorry, this was the best that I can do). As stated before, I will get my husband to take another pic when he gets back from his business trip.

Now, how far am I away from APL??????

Here is my update: I am inching slowly towards APL:

You count me in!

 

[shae101s]

Just checking in: Been putting my hair in plaits (had it in for 4 weeks), now today or tomorrow I will do a wash, protein treatment, moisture dc, then put in twists and get a dusting of the ends.

 

[The Princess]

I was watching a hair video on "You Tube" and one of the females mention how she mixed Olive Oil with Lustrasilk Extra Strength Cholesterol.....So I tried it and it was great. Well for me, when I use it by itself, it leave my hair so hard, which i know cause it the strengthing version, but the Olive Oil mixed with it, gave excellent results, it was strong, but soft. I will do this for now own and not to mention the great benefits Im also receiving from the Olive Oil, so its like a double treat.

Im also 11 weeks post. Im relaxing next week.

Checking in. I decided to revisit the JBCO that I bought a YEAR ago and haven't used since .

Why, oh why haven't I used it??? I sealed with it today and wowowowow. Fanstastic.

So now I am narrowing down my regime. I believe that I will only use Joico products, Rusk smoother, SAA, Coconut and Castor oils. I will also use Jojoba oils with my relaxer.

Now what to do with my HUGE stash of products ....

I use castor oil daily to keep my natural hair from drying out. I've been experimenting lately with a Castor oil/Jojoba oil mix.

[Platinum]

I took my braids down last weekend and I'm still not SL! Well, when I stretch it, it looks like I'm an uneven SL, not quite full SL. It's hard to tell because I'm 20 weeks post. I'm not sure if I want to relax this weekend or continue stretching for the remaining 4 weeks.

If I decide not to relax, I may do an henna treatment or try box braids.

 

[loulou82]

UpDaTe: I'm wearing 2 strand twists. I originally planned on keeping them in for 2 weeks and then redoing them all at once but I think I'll just redo them individually as they get worn out.

 

[Ganjababy]

Update, I have been combing every 10 to 14 days and dc'ng

 

[The Princess]

Well next week I relax, so this week, im going to do the Metha Satvia by Hairveda. 1 more week till my 12 week stretch is up.

Hey Platinum!

I am so eager to see you results! Ever since I started I remembered you..because of Prince....

I have never seen you update..and often wondered..."WHEN IS SHE GONNA UPDATE?"

Come on and show us! I'm excited to see!

 

[DaPPeR]

I'm back in a sew-in after relaxing 3 weeks ago. I did a hardcore protein treatment before I braided it up. I moisturize my braids under the sew-in twice a day with braid spray and seal with castor oil.

Because I do my own hair, I swear I do a sew-in every two weeks, therefore I can do my much need DC's and washes.
