LET'S END THIS WITH A START!

Hair hair hair, even though it's just hair and it'll grow back it's very important to me.  I feel I did good job keeping up with my hair especially after a big breakage after a year of coloring in 2006.  Relaxed, my hair is still thick and rich, bouncy all that good stuff but I keep damaging it because of relaxers.  I'll always huff and puff when there's times when I see long strands falling instead of just crisp, burnt ends.  I also have jet black dye which I'm going to stop retouching with, probably up until the end of the year to see how my transition is coming along.  After the black dye my hair seems shinier and healthier and with my current regime it's just more healthier than how I had it while I was doing the several blonde shaded highlights consistently for a year.  You can see past pictures and pictures I started out with this month on my Fotki.  

I developed, I would say, 70% of my inspiration from online.  From browsing fotki, LHCF, HealthyTextures, and more importantly, Mane & Chic.  I will be trying out alot of her daily routines and products she has posted and leaving results on here.  Before a friend from a message board irrelevant from hair had showed me the link to her blog site, I was very skeptical about going natural.  I refused.....to do...... the BIG CHOP.  I have some insecurities with my face and head shape and I just don't like short hair on me unless it's straight.  And I don't plan on straightening my hair everyday. Right now I do alot of wash and go's and straightening and my lenght now is like the shortest I'd rather do for a wash and go, so doing a BC is out of my options.  I came across M&C and she expressed how she's transitioning and doesn't plan to BC until a she reaches a desired goal in lenght.  THAT let me know it was possible, as long as I'm disciplined with my regime's, I'll do the same. 

Both me and another friend will be giving our transitioning progress, product reviews, and other helpful and/or interesting posts.  Give us some time to get settled in here, and to start posting our regime and products because I would love to hear some support & feedback about everything. So for now, signing out.
