So I am 28 weeks post and transitioning without the bc. My hair began to break off from the constant damp bunning, so I decided to wear my hair straight more often. I've been going to a stylist every 2 weeks and she's been flat ironing my hair and I've cut off 2 inches of relaxed ends so far. It seemed like I was wasting my money because my hair would revert within hours, so I decided to try the keratin treatment.The process was really easy and only took a couple of hours to do. It looks like I just got a fresh relaxer. My hair is shiny and has lots of body. I've been in and out of the rainy weather all day and my hair is still straight. I think I will continue to do this until I get rid of the relaxed ends. My pics really do not do my hair any justice, but here are a few.
