in summer 07 i jacked my head UP. i finally had a flatiron, and everytime i even passed the bathroom, i decided to do a little swipe here and there. it resulted in thinning, broken, heat damaged hair. smh; in this photo, i had just washed, and i lost a crap load of hair in my crown. this is what i was left with. and i still tried to rock it for a while, smh. i just laugh now.
this photo was taken a week before i lost the crown. still tow up.
so i decided to bc jan 08. it was the most painful decision ever. i hadn't had hair so short since i was in the womb, and i was convinced i looked like a boy.
by february, i was starting to come to terms with being bald.
around summer 08, i started to really like my hair. ignore the stupid face.
i fell in LOVE with wash'n'gos
these are the last pics of my natural hair, taken around august 08. by that point i believe i was getting bored with my hair.
my tan was da bomb
i ruined my edges with all those headbands though
then... i did the dumbest thing ever, and relaxed after 11 months of being natural, and on top of that i tried to 'trim' my hair, and trying to make it even, i cut off more hair than a jealous stylist. i whipped it into a bootleg style though and made it work for me.
i hated what i had done and got all in a funk about it... that lasted until april, when i decided i was gonna make the most of it and just transition back to natural. for the most part of my transition, i have worn my hair straight. i tried a few no heat styles, and yal, they were JACKED!
april 09 rollerset
june flatironed hair
a failed twistout in july
super shrinkage already in august
another failed twistout on straightened hair in sept. ignore the creep face
apl was teasing me on oct
at 9 months post in nov, i thought i would have much more new growth.
a bantu knot out in the beginnin of this month was the only no heat style i really liked
and finally, after not flatironing since october, i decided to straighten and do a length check. i BARELY, barely made my hair goal of apl. i took like 50 million pictures to make sure i wasn't seein things. i'm claimin it yal, i'm claimin it! finally. it took long enough. almost 2 freakin years.
i'm claimin it dammit.
yep i sure am. even if its just that little tip.
i been waitin too long. now i hope i can continue to transition until my natural hair is full apl stretched, or even a little longer than that. and no i don't have a regimen.
