hi everyone :grin:
my names Dominique,ive been lurking on here for about 5months and i finally decided to subscribe.i absolutley looove this site to the point where it unfortunately keeps me from doing my work
heres some backround history:
ive always had long hair,my mom always took good care of it. The shortest my hair has ever been is about 2in past APL and that's only because i choose to cut it that short. My mom would never let me get a relaxer no matter how much i begged her.every time i asked she would say "Do you want to be bald like all those other black girls at school?" (she's Haitian btw). So i remained natural all my life up until my senior yr of highschool (im a freshman in college). The only reason i relaxed my hair was because my hair was taking waay to long to do every morning so i thought a relaxer would help save time, which it did..but im starting to miss my kinks/curls:ohwell:
my hair was MBL&my ends were blunt however i went to the salon 3wks ago for a touchup and she "trimmed" my hair into a V-cut without my knowledge.its still long however im really not feeling the V-cut @ all
but anyway i have some pictures,enjoy!...if the pics are too small then i think if you click on em a bigger image will show
if theres any problems with the pics let me knw&i'll try to fix it

this is my natural hair,im mostly 4a with some 3b


this is my relaxed hair in May it was MBL



random pic w/my uncle,i only blowdried i didnt flat iron


..my hair will probably never be this shiny again lol [excuse my uncles feet...]

i dont have any back-shots of my hair in the future i will&when i do i'll post them up =]

You are very cute and your hair looks great. It'll grow back to a blunt shape in no time, just take care of those ends, specially now that winter is coming.

You have that haitian girl shine to your hair. My ex is haitian and I SWEAR every female in his family had this shine to their hair, even if it was jacked up. lmao! Good times. I miss my haitian family. awwww.

niqu92, welcome to the board my fellow haitian. You and your hair are beautiful. Your hair will grow out of the v-shape over time. If you get to the point where you want your natural hair back, you can always transition. Good luck on your hair journey. :)

Welcome!! You and your hair are beautiful!!

Let your hair grow out and maybe do a self-trim using Feye's hair trimming instructions.

lol yea most of the females in my family have long healthy hair. My mom however always had short hair but she knew how to take care of my hair better than anybody else. I'm so glad she didn't let me get a relaxer when i was 11,i probably wouldve been ear-length

Aww I love your story. Welcome. You are the cutest thing ever. It makes my heart so happy when you young ladies are taking good care of your hair. Lord, when I was in college- hair was the last thing on my mind, lol. Beautiful hair too, btw.
