SOUTHERNTEASE :: 1 YEAR UPDATE

5nw7lk.jpg


Hey look at that natural curl... yummy huh...
can't wait until my whole head is like that...
I don't know where it came from... I haven't
cut my hair so maybe the relaxer never
reached it or... it broke off... I dunno...
but I'm loving on my little one natural curl
Don't you just love those natural curls? They're awesome and so so pretty. :yep:
 
Congrats girl! :yay:
I hope I have even at least 1/2 the success you've had.
I'm trying to transition while gaining length also.
Well done.
 
So... it's my one year anniversary on LHCF.
I HAVE NOT TRIMMED FOR A YEAR
I HAVE NOT BEEN TO A STYLIST FOR A YEAR
I HAVE NOT RELAXED MY HAIR FOR A YEAR

:bounceline::bounceline:
:bounceline::bounceline:

I plan on rewashing because this looks a hot mess...
stay tuned to that probably around the 15th in my FOTKI...
but here are my pics... as you see I am barely scraping that
6"/year mark... I went from neck length to barely scraping
APL... that was my goal so I'm happy...
FOR 2008 my goal is to get past my bra strap...
hopefully I can get there my April 2009... and then
begin trimming off my relaxed ends... that's it... that's all.
My next update JULY 2008.

Your hair is beautiful - I'm 16 weeks post right and debating on whether to relax. I haven't had any significant problems thus far - at least as far as I can see - I'm a natural shedder no matter what I do - but last time I stretched for 14 weeks I had severe breakage and didn't know until I relaxed even though I though I was taking care of my hair properly. I would love to be natural but I'm scared of what my natural texture would look like and if I can handle it. I view your blog daily.

Any advice? Currently I'm at BSL - but my breakage occurred in the crown area and sides - I'm assuming it was not getting enough moisture when I was airdrying and bunning. I really would like to transition w/o BC or if I have to only to shoulder length.

I hate the way my hair looks in the pics...
looks so dry & dull but it so does not look like
that in person... I will def. take more...
I'm revamping my fotki... preparing for year 2
going to step my picture game all the way up
:yep:

[FONT=&quot]You call this "DRY and DULL"? Please!!!! Your are totally my hair role model... I've been following your progress and stalking your blog(read every post) since I found LHCF - thats a little over a month now... Been borrowing a lot of your haircare methods (and products).

I want my hair to be just like yours when she "Grows Up" :yep:- Still battling with the prospect of transitioning to natural though - although I would be sooooo proud of myself if i could pull it off. Hmmmmm - my first relaxer would be at the end of May so I guess I have alot of time to study my hair and decide:spinning:.

I've gotten myself a bunch of the products u've reviewed (Absolutely looove the mane clip)... Curlformers and Ultra Black Hair book still in the mail.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!
