Hey, ladies,
Just wanted to post my year's progress. I joined LCHF in December 2006, lurked for a month or two, and read dang near EVERY post/thread , and finally joined the "chatting" in January 2007. As far as taking hair care seriously, my journey really began in February 2007, so here goes.
Here are the photos of my progress; in August 07 and February 08, I got two major cuts (well, it was an inch each time and for me, that's major!). I think I made pretty decent progress for a year. Please chime in and let me know what you think!
My regimen is pretty simple, this is about how it goes:
-Relaxer every 11-12 weeks
-Henna two weeks after relaxer, maybe again after a month
-Wash one or twice a week (now with shikaikai/amla/aritha; rarely use normal poo)
-DC with every wash (add oils and SAA to conditioners)
-MN mix (with BT) three times a week
-Essential oil mix two times a week
-Cornrows/Bantu knots/twistouts once the ng kicks in
-Minimal heat
Here are some photos:
- February 2007
- August 2007 (after 1" trim)
- November 2007
- February 2008 (after 1" trim)
How am I doing??
TIA!
