Heating Things Up (sort of)

Well, I did it.

I straightened my hair.

See, what had happened was... I was getting very frustrated with the length of my hair. With shrinkage, you can't even tell the difference in the length between now and maybe 2 years ago. At least that's how it seems (I can probably dig up some pictures later). So I thought that perhaps the solution to this was to hack it all off. Some begged me not to, others threatened bodily harm if I did. Ms Kibibi said regardless of what I did, I must write a post about it...and include lots and lots of pictures of course.

Relaxer Results

My relaxer day went very well yesterday.  If you follow me on Facebook, then you know that Reniece had to talk me out of cutting 3"(LOL) so I got a light trim. In my January Hair Update, I shared how my ends were being damaged by the clear bands and I still have the thinner ends from that setback. The ends bug me, but I can mask them from myself by wearing wavy and curly styles.  

Pictures of My Hair Cut

Hi everyone,

Here are some pictures of my current length after my hair cut.   Enjoy!

 

Taken at the salon.

 Taken two days after the cut.  

My finger is at the bottom of my bra strap. 

I'm excited that I found the sweatshirt I'm wearing; I misplaced it while moving.  This is the shirt I usually wear to track my progress.  

At my request, my stylist did not bump my ends.  I wanted to see the true length and its harder for me to gauge with bumped ends.
