Did a series of mini chops last year, then one last big chop in August. Now 100% natural.
Pics above is the current condition of my hair- 1 year after BC. Shrunken and flat ironed. Last relaxer Dec 2007.
First pic below is my scab hair after a few mini chops. Still had relaxed ends so I did the BC after that pic.
Next 3 pics are my REAL (finally) buns that I am so proud of.
Last pic is a BA tomato from my garden (random I know but I am so proud of it- even though I am not the gardener).
Regi- DC 2-4 times per week (Aveda, Redken, Keracare, Motions, ORS, Paul Mitchell, NTM, SE, etc). Co-wash (herbal essences) when I have gels in hair then DC. Otherwise DC on dry hair. No sulfates, poo once every 1-2 months if needed (CHI SF or shikakai bar). Yogurt and Ayurvedic herbs once per week. Rasshoul or bentonite clay once per week. Henna monthly. Oils (argan, evoo, castor, cocnut, almond etc plus ayrervedic oils), butters (shae, shealoe, tahiti manoi, mango etc), leave in conditioners, and gels -to define or bun. I also baggy now.
Wore loose until I could faux bun (since last month). Still faux bun when not straightened (bun in pics are real buns
). Only straighten to check length- twice since BC. Trimmed twice since BC.
I want to say a big thank you to all the ladies on LHCF.
