I found my very first post on LHCF, and realized that I've been on here for quite some time. I decided to share a few pics of my hair...how I began my journey and where I am now, for those who haven't seen them before. :rosebud:

Gorgeous hair!!!

I had a dream the other night that I was BSL and I was trying to keep my pressed hair from getting into my dinner. That won't be reality for at least another year.

My progress went in reverse for a while since I did mini chops as I transition to natural. I still have at least one mini chop left.
