It's gorgeous, Naturaltobe! Even prettier than the first. That swang actually made me gasp! hahahaha My bf was like :look:
 
Thank ladies. Transitioning without a BC is hard. I may do one more mini chop (1st was November) but that should be it.

$99 for the Keratin treatment which included the trim and also includes the first washout in 4 days. I could not resist that deal for a service that is normally $200 - $300+

The stylist may be more anxious than me to see my hair after the first wash out. I know that I will still have my curls though - just looser curls.
 
Beautiful hair!! I love your natural hair so very much! The stylist did a great job and I love your trim!!! Takes you a bit closer to being 100% natural :grin:!

Really pretty!!! It is funny to see you going Backwards :giggle: in a good way....

Usually we see other kinds of progress pics.

Looks Great!
 
Thanks!! I am just not ready for a big chop....but I am getting there. I may be 100% natural by the end of 2009. The curls definitely over took the relaxed hair.

I don't know what made me think that I could keep two totally different textures on my head at once. 4a curls and relaxed ends just do not work, not for me at least. I guess if my hair was in the 2 or 3 range I may have been able to retain more of my relaxed hair?
 
I think the stylist liked it too. She commented that it was sooo soft & manageable. She also asked if I was mixed....which I am not.

Maybe you could have if you'd discovered bkt, sooner, also? You could have been like Crazydaze with bsl length bkt'd natural hair with bkt'd relaxed tips. I bet bkt works wonders on that demarcation line and slip. Ah, we live and learn.

I think that was that first Lasio bkt treatment at work :yep: Hot dawg!
 
I liked your curlies. Your hair looks great with the trim. It looks like you have a relaxer, I can't wait to see your wash pics on day 4.
 
I thought about that too. I knew about BKT since 2007 but was never willing to try it due to the formaldehyde. Now that I have researched it to death, I am comfortable with the treatment - enough to do it twice in the same month:lachen:

Maybe I can save my few relaxed ends for a while....at least until it's time to whack them off.

I did the first wash out and all I can say is "Who's hair is this??????" I am shocked.

I have not relaxed since 12/30/2007 and was able to get my roots straight with NO FLAT IRON. If I had been rollersetting for the last few months, I'd be much better at it and probably could have gotten my roots even straighter!!! I may be a 3b or 3c right now.....definitely not 4a anymore until it washes out. My curls bounced back easily after the wash. I am pretty tempted to just chop of my last bit of relaxed ends to rock a curly style.

I got off work too late to make it to the salon and I have to be in the office all day Tuesday & Wednesday so I did my 1st wash out myself. I was still in Jersey at 6 p.m. and would not even think of asking the stylist to wait on me until 7:30 p.m. or later.

I think I did an excellent job. I used WEN Fig to wash my hair and I used Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship leave-in & water to rollerset. I am not a big fan of setting lotion but may try diluted lottabody for my next wash.

I am absolutely getting BKT again!!!

Pics are in my fotki
 
Thank you!!! I am really pleased with the BKT treatment. The fact that I do not have to use a ton of heat to get these results will keep me coming back to BKT.
