Hi ladies,
On December 22 I will be 1 year post relaxer
Its been easy since I'm using kinky twist and flat twist extensions as a protective style. I only take my hair down 3 times a year (Summer, Christmas, and Spring break). Anyway, tomorrow I'm getting my flat twist extensions put back in. Because of this I took down my hair to wash and dc. Afterward, I attempted my first braid out. It didn't turn out too well but the funny thing is, when I alter the color on my photos you can clearly see the difference between my relaxed and natural hair LOL. 
I thought this was pretty cool and wanted to share. Now I know exactly what my hair would look like if I BC (1st picture).
BTW I'm hoping to transistion long term...although I was almost tempted to relax. I really need to practice doing my own hair. I ve never been really good at it.

on making it one year in your transition. I, too, was a long-term transitioner (2 plus years), so I understand your feelings...Have you checked out the long-term transitioner thread? They are really supportive and suggest hairstyles, etc. Happy Hair Growing!
