Hi Ladies. Thanks to you ladies I can claim APL. I was neck length just grazing shoulder in January



In January, blowdried and flatironed



April 2008, Just before LHCF. I needed a trim and my hair was shedding and I had some serious split ends:wallbash:


October 2008, after fresh relaxer and self trim.



I made APL whoo hoo:grin::grin:

Thanks ladies. I couldn't have done it without your help. Next stop BSL!!!

Natural again ... this time for good!
First of all, your hair is gorgeous and you've made great progress. Love your thickness. You'll be at a full BSL in no time flat.

Now ... second ... am I trippin' or are you balancing the camera on your head in your October pics?!

Nope you aint tripping it's on my head:grin::grin:.

My regimen is

Wash and DC wednesdays and saturdays or sundays
I use ORS condish, garnier fructis with ceramide
chelate with ORS Aloe shampoo (Jersey has hard water)
clarify with suave clarifying twice a month
Still looking for a good moisturizing DC
I used ORS lotion creme but I made up my own leave-in which contains glycerin, jojoba oil, coconut oil, castor oil, sunsilk hydra TLC and water.

I'm still tweaking my regimen so things might change.

Thanks ladies, y'all are my inspiration. My hair really has come a long way from fall '06 :yep:

Lookin good girl!! Congrats!

As far as a moisturizing DC have you tried the Haiveda Sitrinillah(sp) after hearing so many rave about it on the board I tried it and am absolutely in love :love:

Keep up the good work!

Trust me if you had seen my hair January of last year, you would have felt sorry for me. I thought I was bieng smart by washing my hair without combing after taking out my braids. After washing I had a big tangled mess.

What you see is a result of cutting from almost APL back to neck length and agressive trims.

Thanks for the tip Steph, I'll try it and see.
