Smooth Transition @ 19 weeks


ok so this transition is going great, for a second i thought i'd experienced a major set back because i have'nt been as consistant with baggying, and im not really sure if this coconut mild and honey is moisterising enough some way or another the back half of my hair is growing super-fast.. i dont have that much color left or relaxer ends.. which i think is even throughout my hair.. seeing as though my hair didnt really seem to grow much during the last time i colored which was in July '07.. but its going good other than that...

i still have that weak spot in the back middle portion of my hair which i still havent decided what im going to do with it.... i think i'll just trim that area evenly and baggy it seperatly from the rest of my hair.. and i still have these tiny broken hairs that i notice whenever i moisterise and seal... maybe the coconut, honey and olive oil concoction isnt enough moisture... not really sure... it feels good though....

so as of today i am 19 weeks and 3 days post relaxer.. the line of demarcation is being sweet with me so far.. ive decided when i get below bsl, i'll began to dust away the relaxer.... not set in stone.. lets just say a year from now.... i'll start my supplements in April, which will be multi vitamins and BT, or this gro-aut formula i've been reading about, or i may just concoct my own!!!

Next length update May 15th (28 weeks)...

Coconut milk

well well well....
i finally tried the avacado and cocnut milk, before i used the cocnut milk and avacado i put my tea rinse and let it just about air dry and then rinsed and put on the coconut milk and avacado.

at first my sentiments about this concoction were very very mixed because 1. i didnt puree the avacado and 2. it felt hard after i rinsed it but then after i put in some conditioner for 5 minutes and rinsed it out it was all good and the next day my new growth was very very textured. ..

so the next day i decided to mix some conditioner with honey, coconut milk, and evoo and dc with heat for an hour and i liked how that came out too. so next i will use just cocnut milk by it self and see what that does. all in all i like the effect that the cm had on my hair..

FEBRUARY UPDATE::::






I did my 3 month update yesterday and well, it did grow, but not quite to apl. but im happy with the thickness and the health of my hair.. it was truely a lesson learned though..

next time i will have to rollerset and just flatiron the roots and learn about saran wrapping. also oddly enough i thought i would have a hard time flatironing the roots but it was the ends that i had a hard time with, the roots straightened perfectly. my ends were dry but i know its the extra protien ive been using.

over all though im happy with my hair but i will be cutting back on the heavy protien and just use silk protien for a while and figure out a way to combat my "weak spot". so all in all this 5.5 months of hair care has been great. and so not a waste of time i've achieved health thickness and length.

so my next update will be in May and my short term goal is full apl by July.
