Hello and Thank you!!!

[Lurkee]

Hello Ladies,

I finally joined today after a year of lurking. I must admit I was quite intimated to become a member with my crappy hair a year ago. So today I decided to pay my dues and thank you all for contributing to my knowledge of caring for my hair.

I am not sure how to include pictures with the posts and insert comments so the picture in the brown shirt is me roughly a year ago and the other two were taken last weekend. My hair is very fine and not thick and I am also a slow grower but this journey for me is a life long one so I am not in too much of a hurry. Now if I am stuck at SL for 3 years then

Tis all

Wow you've made some great progress!
I don't see you being at shoulder length for more than three years with what you've retained...

... Oh. And Welcome!! Lol.

 

[yaya24]

You've already made progress, so you should not worry about getting stuck at SL.

Enjoy the journey!!!

Good job. What did you change in your regimen in the year?

 

[reeko43]

Congrats and welcome! You have done a great job with your hair

Good job. What did you change in your regimen in the year?

First thing I did was bye bye stylist. I have not been for a year, not even for relaxer touch-ups. I also stopped wearing micro braids and weaves. I did not know how to care for my hair under them which lead me to have a lot of breakage especially around my edges. First year was a year of trial and error for me. I hopped from one bandwagon to the other. Now my regimen moving forward is very simple

Once a week:
Wash
DC
Rollerset

If my hair feels dry, I will use a moisturiser but it is not a daily thing. I also recently added the moisture prepoo and I like it.

Same here Welcome. I totally hear you about wanting to get your hair in shape before posting. I've been on the board for years and have yet to do a post as nice as yours. With your growth and retention your not going to be at SL that long. HHJ
