Relaxer after 7 Month Stretch (pics) (long)

I cut my hair to APL in April 2009 (about a year ago)

Flatironed After the relaxer (ORS No-Lye regular)
I just woke up..and I wore my hair in a braid so my hair's not 100 percent straight.

Congrats on your progress! You provide me incentive to carry on!
 
great progress! What was your reggie during this stretch?

Wash'/Deep condition once a week.
before the wash, finger detangle and prepoo with a pre-mix of indian oils for an hour (castor oil, mustard seed, amla, brahmi, rosemary eo, thyme eo, shikakai oil)
Deep condition is a mix of GVP Conditioning Balm, Suave coconut, Aussie Moist, castor oil, amla powder, avocado butter, avocado oil, and honey.
Shampoo after deep conditioning with Herbal Essences Hello Hydration
Condition and detangle with Aussie Moist
AUSSIE MOIST IS INCREDIBLE. It's what helped me stretch.

During the day I braided my hair under a wig.
Moisturized each day (or skipped days because buildup causes tangles) with Herbal Essences LTR and sealed with Amla oil.
 
I want to learn how to style my hair like yours!!! It's like I have all this hair and don't know how to style it properly :(

I'm style challenged as well...lol I usually just rollerset and wrap right after... have you tried rollersetting?
 
excellent work myronnie!! so did you find that that touchup was more difficult/took longer than normal? was one jar enough?
