These are various pictures of my hair when I was relaxing. I had colored my hair and as you can see my hair got shorter and shorter from damage. I'm natural now. I stopped relaxing because the damage relaxers did to my scalp.

I'm pretty slow to update, I will admit. I'm natural now and my regimen is pretty simple. I cowash every couple of days. I'm loving my hair right now.

Right now I cowash with either biotera or tresemme, after that I will use suave as a leave in or the cantu shea butter leave in. On the days I don't cowash, I will wet my hair a little in the shower and then use Hawaiian silky activator and mosturizer to spruce up my curls.

I have alot of scalp build up so I use Neutrogena about once every couple of weeks. I also put baking soda in my conditioner about once a week.

Right now I'm keeping it pretty simple as I get more comfortable with being natural I will try more styles.

These are the styles I wore during my transition.

I have decided to add protective styling into my regimen. Since I hate buns I will be wearing wigs, weaves, braids and phony ponies. I won't start updating until 2009. I'm hoping this can help me retain length. We will see.
