My Natural Hair 2007-Present

12/31/09 Year-End UPDATE:

My hair is now 100% relaxer-free

Last Relaxer: September 2006
Hair Type 4a
Current Length: Past bra strap (stretched) Shoulder-length (unstretched)
Current Style: Bun
As of Dec 2009, I am 3 years and 3 months relaxer-free

*Currently wearing weaves while growing out hair
*I like sleek, polished looks so I will wear my hair straight 99% of the time and I'm not scared of the heat (for my hair)
*Transitioned for about 9 months before cutting most of the relaxed ends


1/1/10 QUICK NOTE: Yes, I primarily use the pressing comb when I press my hair. However, for this latest update, I used a flat-iron this time :o)
(Many of you have asked so I thought I'd add a little note)

    Close up curls Dec 2009 - Hydratherma Naturals shampoo

    Have you noticed that the part you leave out is permanently straight from trying to blend it or do you mostly do full head weaves with no hair out?
