It's been a year, yay! (well actually 13 months). I've learned so much from you gals (tear!). Yall don't know how much I study up on haircare...it's an obsession that you all have helped breed!

I'm still confused about whether I want to stay relaxed or transition, so who knows, next year my pics might look totally different, but we'll see.

Enjoy!!!


beginning of my journey March 2007 when I was studying abroad in Europe. Boy did I need a regimen a.s.a.p.!


April 2007, looks better flipped up


May 2007, allright, we're getting somewhere!


June 2007, my rollersets were really bad! My hair still felt course after doing them, but my hair was still responding to the gentle treatment.


July 2007, I despise see through ends! Pretty sure I got a trim around this time



August 2007, I carusoed a lot in the summer


September 2007, yay, it actually touches a part of my back!


October 2007, liking the full look


December 2007, guess there was a spurt


March 2008, before trim, feel like it grew slower over winter and ends started getting unmanageable for me, was frustrated when I took this pic


March 2008, 1.5 inch blunt cut trim, it's hard to get your hair to lay flat and then take your own pic, lol!

I'm just about 6 feet tall, so I've learned it can be frustrating to count the months while waiting for my hair to grow down my long back. So I'll just let it do what it do. Thanks for checking out my progress anniversary pics!

Very nice progress, keep up the good work. The "obsession" makes it so worth while when we can see the progress doesn't it?

I've been meaning to compliment you on your hair. Fabulous. How did you finally get your ends thicker... trimming constantly or what?
