Hey everyone ![Spinning :spinning: :spinning:](/smilies/spinning.gif)
I was on hiatus because of school... haven't posted in awhile, but I've been keeping up with the great tips you ladies have given me. I managed to retain about 2 inches of growth since September, which is a huge accomplishment for me. I also have not dyed my hair in 9 months
and my new growth is really interesting.
On a sidenote, I was definitely wrong about my hair type... my curls are a lot tighter and more defined than I had originally thought (but hey, I hadn't seen my natural hair in 10 years!). It's weird because from far away, my new growth looks wavy, but the actual strands are extremely curly... I wonder what it will look like when I have more NG.
ANYWAY... here are some pictures for comparison:
October 2008
May 2009, right after keratin treatment
It's amazing what a little TLC can do... I think I'm going to keep doing keratin treatments until I have enough NG to do a mini-chop.
Thanks so much for all the advice and encouragement![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
