You did an excellent job of maintaining your length and thickness. I am transitioning now out of years of super straight hair. The relaxer I'm using now texurizes my NG while letting me have straight hair. I hope I get good results like yours! Keep up the inspiring work!
Hey guys
I'm sooo excited to share with you all my new natural 'do! I BC'ed last Saturday at Prive salon in NYC. To be honest, I've been wanting to BC for a while now, but just kept putting it off. Eventually it got to the point where I said to myself, *** it, it'll be short, but it will definitely be easier to manage and it'll be healthy and grow as a result.
I know my post is long overdue for those who requested to see my newly natural state, I've been just way too busy with work! Anyway, onto the pics.
PRE-BC: (In the process of being flat-ironed)
BC:
(2nd day hair pulled into a puff)
During and before my DC process:
I must say, I never freaked out or went into hair shock during the chopping process. In fact, once it was done, I wondered why didn't I chop sooner!
Right now my regimen is cowashing everyday, doing a WNG, and on the weekends I do a protein and then a moisturizing DC. Staples right now are Aloe Rid, KCCC, KC Knot Today, and Aussie Moist.
HTH, and HAPPY HAIR GROWING!
Wow! Your post was so inspiring! It will be 2 years since I started growing my relaxer out. I've been too afraid to cut it because I don't think short hair would fit my pie face. Plus my hair growth has been really weird (fast in the back, slow on the top and sides). I don't want to wind up with a mullet
Thank you for posting your thread. I just might go ahead and do it...
Congratulations on growing out your relaxer for 2 years! You're doing fantastic, I cracked at barely 1.5 years 
!!!!!!!! so thick .
