Both pictures are after sleeping in my Pin-Curls.
I only had 7 pin-curls in my hair.
It does need to be shampooed.

Did you do a roller set before these pin curls or did you just pin curl your hair without setting it? I ask because I pin curl my hair straight after a roller set but mine comes out in ringlets instead.

No roller set or any setting products. Just the pin curls. I do try to oil my ends every other night with EVOO & AO. Last night I didn't. The night before I did the pin curls as well.

Your hair looks fantastic!!
How do you do the pin curls and what do you think has been your "saving grace" for such progress? Keep on growing!

Armyqt & DJD thanks for the positive words.
Mello as for the pin curls you can use end papers but I don't, just wind the hair round and round itself until it is rolled up to the scalp. Stick a bobby pin in it to secure the curl. The size of the pin curl will determine the degree of curl. I think back in the old days they even used 2 bobby pin to a curl. As far as what's help me, I would have to say everyone on this board. Even when I was trying to transition I had lots of help. I do feel that since I went back to the relaxer my hair looks much better this time around. Plus, I'm going to a stylist for the relaxer. I didn't do too bad because he didn't have to cut a lot of hair when I got the touch-up. I do need to get back to my protective styles.
