Well it's happened, I've fallen head over heels with my hair. Though I am still mid-transition (9 months in) it doesn't feel like it. The struggles with dual textures has stopped - I think that doing the mini-chop and getting rid of most of the dead, relaxed ends really helped. I am now sporting a head full of curls - actually, I have a couple of straight ends in the front that need a little coaxing, but other than that, the rest of my hair is a big curly mop and I LOVE IT!!!
I finally found a regime that works and some great tips on products from www.curlynikki.com (THANKS NIK YOU ROCK!) and www.maneandchic.com (KAI YOU ALSO ROCK!). I've been treating my hair like a new born baby - because really it is like a new born fragile, but growing stronger daily.
I'm headed to NY for my family's big, blow out summer BBQ (you know how we do :)) and I am going to henna before I go - it'll be my first time and I am super excited about it. I got my stash of Jamila Henna and I am amped to go. I'll post afterwards to let you all know the results.
Anyway, I know I have been more than remiss about posting photos of myself and my hair - but they are coming! I swear...LOL
