Well, I don't know if you all remember, but I found a stylist a while ago who seemed to be dedicated to healthy hair, but since I'm so passive, I didn't tell her that I didn't want her to run the relaxer through to the ends (which I didn't know she was doing until she did it) so I never went back. That was back in October (relaxer before last).
I went to my godmother's stylist yesterday for a relaxer (my godmother has gorgeous BSL hair) and she seemed really nice. She's a young black woman, late 20s I think, and she's from New Jersey. I was suprised at first when she didn't complain about going three months without a relaxer. Then I told her about the extreme breakage I went through my last relaxer back in December because of the protein treatment she gave me twice in a row (I wrote a thread about that too). When she started talking about protein and moisture balance, I was like
. Then she started telling me that she only did relaxers every three months on her clients (longer if she could convince her clients to) and then I was like . So I casually mentioned LHCF, but I don't think she's a member. When she relaxed my hair, she didn't really want to (I was only 11 weeks), so at this point, I trusted her enough to cut (yes, CUT) my hair (the damage after the breakage back in December had gotten much worse) and I told her that I didn't want it to be shorter than shoulder length, so she cut it to collarbone length and I was like . I LOVE her! She works at hair cuttery and they only charge $14 for a wash and set! My last salons charged $30-$35! And she does really nice dominican blowouts (but I got a roller wrap)!
Although I'm on a personal HYH challenge, I will post a starting pic soon!
