Having a great wash day today! Just blow dried my hair, and will flat iron in a minute. No crazy shedding, tangles, or breakage. Coming from straightened hair this past week has really helped keep my new growth from spiraling around and catching shed hairs.

:lol: @shortdub78 in here shaking @ItsMeLilLucky down for some pics! :lachen: Great pics and beautiful hair!

@Aggie my hair is looking a mess! Usually when I wash/dc, it looks cute for a few days. Not this time! I don't have time to relax this weekend, but I might go earlier than Sept. 30 if I can't get it to look decent.

I was actually thinking about texlaxing mine on September 23rd, so if you need to go earlier, I'm game - but just not this weekend. We are contending with Hurricane Irma this weekend down here in the Bahamas by late Thursday, early Friday. Don't know what conditions will be like for this weekend just yet.

Omg stay safe! I'm in it too :(

How are you @sunnieb ? Was your area in Texas okay?
 
Funny hair related story. My little cousin* is supposed to be braiding my hair Saturday but we gotta evacuate and all but I texted her like hey what time are your parents leaving? Thinking we can still squeeze it in, ya know? :look:

*idk if I ever shared but I have a baby cousin that does hair! She's only 17 so I told her I'd let her practice on her friends for a couple years :look: then she could do mine. She is legit now; babygirl does sew ins, wigs, braids, color, blowouts :rofl: Her next move is starting cosmetology school after graduation :)

:lachen::lachen:

You are a trip. Gon' head baby cousin!
 
I haven't finished flat ironing my hair but here's pics from the new touch up. The right side looks like it's trying to catch up :clap: The back over all looks like it's rapidly approaching neck length. I know I probably look crazy with all these different lengths of hair, but thank you baby Jesus for not letting my hair fall all the way out from me doing all kinds of crazy stuff to it. I need to update my hair blog.

There was one more picture I needed to add, but I'm having problems adding it.
 
Yay, we can finally upload pix again!

So here's my pic of my two textures. I took it right after my last texlax at the end of April. I usually tuck my braids because the ends look so bad. I'm growing out my bone straight ends. That's from me doing correctives which ended up being way too straight for my fine strands.

I'm a recovering scissor/clipper addict. I literally used to shave my head every year. So I'm afraid to cut of my ends because I'll probably just go ahead and shave it off once I get chopping.
 
Last one and I'm done. :giggle:

As much as I loved my natural hair, I really do not miss it- especially because I texlax. I used to spend a whole day or two washing, DCing and setting my hair only for my cute "out" style to look fly until I stepped out of the door! I would be so mad! I loved my poofy hair but if I wanted it poofy, I wouldn't have done anything special to it. All the effort I had to put into it just to do a style that wasn't going to last was making me dislike styling my hair.

Now, if I spend an hour or so washing, DCing and setting my hair, my style is not only more defined but it stays that way after I walk out of my door!!
 
@MzSwift Thanks! It'll still be a while before I can wear it down, but knowing me I'd wear it down anyway :lachen:I'm like you when it comes to chopping off stuff, that's why I only trim the very ends, or I'd probably end up in a pixie cut. And awww, baby :love:
