Celebrating 5 YEARS with Natural Hair!!!

[Poohbear]

Today May 1st, 2010 marks the day that I've had natural hair for 5 years! I had relaxed hair ever since I was about 10 years old and then I did the big chop when I was 21 years old. I chopped it down to less than 1/2 an inch and now my hair is armpit length. It's been armpit length for awhile due to a couple of cuts and a lot of trims. Right now, I trying to take better care of my hair so I can reach brastrap length at least by the end of this year. I've been avoiding heat and been wearing my hair in buns, curly fros/twistouts, and puffs.
