The Past: Relaxed- Natural

This was the start of my hair, this is my hair being treated and cared for weekly by my grandmother who is a beautician... I was receiving relaxers every four weeks and getting shampoos every week. I never sealed and moisturized, lol I never even oiled my scalp my hair was just naturally long and thick as long as my grandmother's "growing" hands were constantly in my hair....





Another pic of how long my hair was at that time... Before I decided to cut it and bleach it..


The start of my issues..... Bleached and Jet black, plus cut into a bob


Hair starting to break off and thin out, one of the reasons I made the decision to go natural


I didn't get my hair relaxed for 6 months and this is the texture I ended up with, I really liked it so this is what motivated me to go natural


The big chop, I almost had an anxiety attack after I did this...


Final length before I decided to go back to a relaxer.

Relaxer Summer '11


Hair begin breaking off, as you can see all the bleach has broke off

  1. Aww yea that color isn't no joke! My old stylist told me that blonde was the worst color to get. I didn't listen and the same happened to me so I feel your pain.

  2. OMG color is the DEVIL! I will never put another permanent color on my hair, it will actually take me awhile to even do a rinse!
