Hello Ladies 
It has been a while since I've been on here. But, thanks to all you ladies I have learned so much about caring for my hair. I just wanted to share my progress. I stopped relaxing my hair 02/2009. I did my bc on 06/2009. Well it's just about a year and a half since that time and my hair is the same length it was before my bc.
This is where the real challenge begins for me. I want to grow it past this length. I was able to maintain it at this length when I was relaxed. But, now I want more!!
You ladies have inspired me 
Now I know what my hair wants and I understand the importance of protective styles and keeping my hair clean and moisturized.
I feel confident that I grow it longer!!!
Okay okay on to the important part the pics

February 2010
August 2010 (Blown Out for straightening)
August 2010
August 2010 pin curls
October curly again (wash and go)
October wet hair no product
October Flat Ironed
November two strand twist I
two strand twist. This style was bunned in the back and a side bang.
November Wash and Go

December Two strand twist out
December Today <Front>
December Today <Back>
p.s. In the process of using heat the only heat damage I have is a result of me trusting a stylist back in Jan of this year to straighten my hair
. Thankfully it was minimal. Just a very small portion of the left side of my head. I have since cut the damaged part off. The rest of my hair is long enough to cover it. I don't think I will be back to a salon for a loooooong time.. plus I do a pretty good job myself.
Hope you enjoyed ladies HHG!

on your BC and your progress! Natural hair becomes you! Looks like you need to join the BSL 2011 Challenge 
smells so good and leaves hair really soft.
