UPDATE ON PAGE 3! Caruso steam curlers are DA BOMB! (MORE PICS!!!)
I never thought it would be posssible, but I love my hair! I used to be a staunch braid wearer. I would do such horrible thnigs to my hair because I really beleived that I would never wear my own hair out. I would perm IN braids, cut, flat iron daily, never conditioned for more than five minutes, sleep on cotton pillow cases, just genuinely abuse my hair. I never thought I'd have long healthy hair because I never imagined that 4b hair would act right.
Well after almost a year on LHCF, I have turned over a new leaf. It started with accepting my natural hair. I realized that beautiful hair doesn't have to be bone straight and it doesn't have to be all down my back either (though that is my ultimate goal). I've come up with a simple, yet basic reggie: I clarify once every two weeks, air or roller set to dry, use low heat (3-4) using my Maxiglide with steam and NOW, say hello to my Caruso. My hair is now strong, shiny from health not grease, and growing beautifully. And I owe it all to you ladies here on LHCF.
I'm getting married next spring and my desire is to wear my own hair, preferably mid back length, but what ever length I have when the time comes, I know it will be beautiful because it's healthy, full, and mine!
I can't thank you enough or sing your praises loud enough. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you all for all your help, confidence, beauty, and support. I love seeing others make this important journey and it makes me believe that natural 4b hair IS GOOD HAIR!
