Both you and DD have had some great progress in the past year, you should be very proud of yourself firstly for caring enough to make the enquiries into healthy haircare and for taking the time to correct the heat damage, unbelievably I've known people who have jacked up their hair with heat who then convince themselves that the only way they can style their hair to look good is by using straighteners/hotcombs (more heat, hard to let it go). DD's hair is flourishing just fine and your hair is looking good thick and healthy, this is a great start to the new year for you both you just keep up the good work.
OT: there were some really nice photos of you both in there, Happy New Year
