Hey Ladies!!!!



I wanted to share and thank you all tremendously for all of your support and encouragement over these last couple of years....

I have been on hair boards for almost 3 years.... But - for 7 of my 10 years natural - I was flourishing in braids - then floundering outside of the braid extensions.....

I am grateful to be a nappy.... I feel really good being - in my hair, and being in my 40's - officially!
41 feels a little funny!!!! But - I am looking forward to WAIST length hair at 42!!!!!! I can't believe it has been a decade since my last RELAXER!!!!!



So - For all of you just starting out.....here is some encouragement:

1. Don't give up!!! Keep LEARNING!!!! I learn something new EVERY day on the Boards and from my own hair.....

2. When you feel like - "forget it, slap the crack on...Don't look at the emotional responses....Be secure :yep:

3. Always asses and re-asses your regimen.

4. Fuzz is a part of life:grin:


Love you all!!!!!

Happy Birthday and Congrats on 10 years

I Been at this for 15 years now and am still learning too:yep:

although I think we got most of it down now

enjoy your birthday, and celebrate your natural decade , its a milestone for sure:yep:
 
Happy Birthday Samanthajones and happy nappiversary. Even though our textures are different, you truly are an inspiration to me. It will be 9 years next year that I've been natural. It's hard and I haven't totally ruled out texturizing/texlaxing in the future, but I've observed how much fun you have with your hair and it has taught me a big lesson in enjoying what I have. :yep:
 
Happy Birthday and happy anniversary. I am trying to hold out on getting the creamy crack. I was able to straighten my hair this weekend and did a great job.

It seems you got the most growth withbraids? Was it extenstions or did you just braid your hair only?
 
Thanks all for the love!!!!

These days - they will have to be MUCH bigger to make sure my hair does not break
