I am here to learn a bit more about hair styles, care, and products..thanks for taking looking!

btw..i am/was on fotki & youtube:drunk:
 
I used to love your relaxed hair sooo much and was sooo disappointed when you BC all that hair. However, I got over it real quick when I saw your twa - beautiful. Your natural hair is beautiful, and I see you still have your favorite hair style.
 
Welcome... I am an old member, still lurking:drunk:...

I am familiar with you/your hair as Bronzeg...Anywho, congratulations on your growth and retention. Your hair looks great.

since the day of my BC...i wet my hair just about everyday (sometimes every other)...with either plan water (in the shower) or a mixture of water, AVJ, castor oil, & glycerin....my hair is almost always in a puff...i used to DC every week..now, it's every 2 weeks :look:...now that it is a bit longer...i bun a lot..and do occasional twist outs...that's all that i can think of right now..i try to keep it VERY smiple...HTHs

thank you @imfocused

:lol:...i think i had relaxed too close to getting it colored (or the other way around)..it was WORSE than that...that pic was AFTER a trim:drunk:..back then..i was DC'ing faithfully every week..rollersetting..NO HEAT.. i was religious with it
 
I remember you from across the street at BHM. I was wondering what happened to b/c we didn't see you after your bc. Beautiful hair and hella progress!!
 
Now you know good and well you cant bust out some progress pics like that without sharing your regimen and some tips and tricks lol.:spinning:

Beautiful hair!
 
What abt the Reggie that got u to WL relaxed? What made u go transition to natural? just curious Since I'm on the fence.
