So I did senegalese twists, micro braids, and presses and a whoooolllle lottta ponytails to get me through. Little by little I taught myself to do an array of natural looks and developed a very simple regimen that had me consistently at or grazing BSL. One day early in 08 I was blowing my hair out and I realized my hair was kinky from root to tip and I was like NICE! and rocked my BAA for the world to see right away. I was enjoying my hair and growing it nicely. Then, last July I stumbled upon the boards while researching more natural shampoo's and now I share my styles with yall!
BlackMasterpiece,
I had been wondering for a while about how you transitioned. So, you never did "mini-chops?" Did you just do your regular trims?...or did the relaxed hair kind of break off or go away naturally?
When you got micro-braids, did they braid past the hair, or did you let them leave the ends loose? Any pics of your sengalese twists?
Sorry for all the questions and TIA.
