So it's been a couple years since my last update. I tried to keep this thread brief, but, it's not.
Sorry
I started my hgj in 2008 at BSL/MBL.
I decided to transition and I transitioned for 4+ years I ended that this year.
The transition wasn't exactly easy especially from 2009-2011.
I had a major setback in 2010. 
(pic from 2011/2012?)
Since mid 2010 I've been cutting my growth back to right below wl almost every 6 months. I know I waited a couple of times though. So it seemed for a while i was staying the same.
But anyway I'm finally natural!!!!!! And yay I'm at tbl!
:reddancer: (Also, I finally don't have hairorexia anymore! I realize that yes my hair is long.)
I wear my hair in some sort of a slightly stretched curly state probably 90-95% of the time. It is prone to tangling, so no wash and gos >( I protective style probably about 90% of the time. Generally a bun or if I'm at home pigtails.
And here is my hair now
^ curls + braidout?
braidout on straight hair
Also, thank you all LHFC. I wasn't even sure if I could meet my hair goal when I first started.
I didn't know if it was possible. Ya'll have been so supportive, kind, encouraging, patient and all around awesome. Also thanks for the pics to oogle. 
Ya'll are great 
thanks for reading all this too.

so I'm hoping for your same results with the next few years.
It's nice to see someone with tbl hair actually have a regimen and detail it. I get annoyed when people are asked for their regimen and they just say shea butter and oils. lol.
