hey ladies!!! I finally straightened my hair again and my hair has grown which I am excited about...I'm pleased with my progress but my hair is still very very thin and fine :nono:

Its cool b/c I didnt do a hard press just a light press so my hair would look fuller lol its so thin i couldnt wear it down (like it would fly off my head :nono:) + my no edges didnt help lol

well overall though i'm happy and blessed-my heat damaged broken off front is also growing in nicely!!

YES I HAVE STILL BEEN ROCKING A WIG DAILY!! (my edges are so bad and my hair is so thin) but I am workning on styles that hide my edges and make my hair look fuller - and I def gave my hair more TLC this yr :yep:


heat damage 2009



Now

2009


1/1/10


12/25/10 (excuse the clothes lol) - light press - cant do hard press :nono:







12/25/10





1/1/10 - I do think my hair has got fuller BUT my hair was more straight and weighed down with products!!



FOR 2011 ITS ALL ABOUT GETTING THICKNESS AND GROWING IN THOSE DARN EDGES:
- I plan to do more protein
- less shampoo?!?
- boundless tresses for my edges
- JBCO
- maybe henna(if i'm not to lazy)

I may cut my hair?!? Maybe to help it look fuller...idk we'll see!!

Nice progress! Could you tell us what your regimen is? As another fine haired (& less dense) girl I find it very difficult to retain length. TIA!!

You give us hope lol

thanks!! - I try to keep faith that things will change for the better its growing so that means there is always a chance for my edges to recover and my hair to get thicker!!

well as far as a regimen...I have not really been sticking to one but im trying to keep it simple and easy

I usually wash once a week (clarify once a month) since I do use products on my scalp (esp my edges) BUT FROM RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND THAT SHAMPOO IS NOT GOOD FOR THIN HAIR AS IT CAN MAKE IT THINNER SOOO MAYBE I'LL SUB IN A COWASH AND ALTERNATE SHAMPOO THEN COWASH

I am trying to be faithful in using boundless tresses on my edges/probably will start doing a scalp massage with JBCO

deep condition after shampoo (silk elements :lick: and this mix YouTube - Deep Conditioning Tutorial) - I tried it before flat ironing and omg let me tell u I will be doing this everytime from now on!!

probably will just deep condition on dry hair over night with coconut oil before cowashing on wash day instead of using shampoo

moisturize and seal after wash and as needed

plait my hair up and throw it under a wig lol :lachen:

VERY IMPORTANT!!

I DETANGLE BEFORE I WASH ON DRY HAIR AND KEEP MY HAIR IN PLAITS WHILE WASHING!!! THIS HAS HELPED SOOOOO MUCH!!

- I plan to do a light protein probably just add an egg to my conditioner once a month

- and do aphogee 2 step every other month!!

I have researched that protein can really help with thickness

lets see if I can stick to this and hopefully start wearing my hair more!!

I believe the wigs are thinning out your edges. i have thin hair, also, and I notice if I wear wigs I have to be very careful with my edges and protect them or I will get thinning and I notice very early that shampoo thinned out my hair, co-washes are better. Now, that I have an ayurveda regime, i notice thickness coming in. Overall, great progess!
