Hello ladies!!!
Well, after much consideration, worrying and nervousness, I FINALLY BC'd this past Friday night on Oct. 15, 2010!!
I had my regular old stylist cut me. I was kind of nervous beforehand, but excited! When she made the first cut, I was a little shocked, but as she kept on cutting, I was TOO HAPPY! I was laughing during the whole process! She was so amused that I was so happy to be cutting off the 7/8 month-post relaxed hair that I still had on my hair. After everything was cut, I couldn't believe what I saw in the mirror! My hair has never been that short before. I think maybe when I was 2 or 3 years old my hair was this short lol. But my hair has some serious shrinkage action. I can tell already! It may LOOK short, but when I pull it, I see just how MUCH my hair has grown in just 7 or 8 short months!
Anyway, after she washed, deep conditioned, and put some product in my hair, I was good to go! SHe said that it looked so GOOD on me! She was actually surprised! LOL!! She was so pleased that I was so happy that she didn't even charge me! Awww
I must admit you guys, I feel like a brand NEW person. I look "edgier". I'm so tickled to death with my new FRESH, healthy, non-chemicalized (is that even a word?) hair! I feel like my hair is like a brand new baby that just needs some tender care, loving, and NO chemicals! I have found some residue of straight relaxed ends on some of my curls, so it looks like I'm going to have to buy some hair shears and do a little search and destroy session of some of the straight ends that were left....but the majority of my hair is fully natural, and I'm loving it!
I can't stop putting my hands in my HAIR! I seriously have developed a case of hand-in-hair disease! My hair feels so soft, and I just did a co-wash on my hair yesterday for the first time as a natural, and it's so EASY to take care of as opposed to dealing with the two textures! Who knew "our hair" could be so beautiful and "easy" to manage?? OMG! I'm just so happy! I feel like my TRUE self. You fellow bc'ers know what I'm talking about! I can't wait to experiment w/new products and new styles!
OKay, let me stop raving like a lunatic lol and just show you guys the pictures.
