<br /><div>Well...almost...So on March 8th I will be 10 months post relaxer..ALMOST ONE FREAKING YEAR! WOOHOO! Yah...I'm uber excited ;) This was my end point the second time I tried transitioning so it's a lil' celebration going on in my head :~). </div>
<br /><div>So I'm still wearing buns, still using the same conditioners to co wash. My gels of choice as of now are the ECO Olive Oil gel and the Fantasia IC clear gel (love love love). From time to time I will use the flexi rods (booo) <----- takes longer to do them now and my arms get crazy tired, ha. I've also realized that my hair thrives most when I do NOTHING to it (low manipulation)...works charms. As for moisture... Elasta QP Mango Butter...been using it for the past 4 years and I LOVE IT!!! Im</span> not real fancy when it comes to oils, just regular old EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) and coconut oil :)</div></div></div></div></div>

I miss you all, so as you all know I've decided to start back transitioning! I just feel as is this is the right time, I'm so excited. So straight to the point...I've learned that SIMPLE is best. When it comes to products, styles, AND my regimen...simple is the only way I can have it. Lets start off with conditioners! We have Suave Almond and Shea Butter Conditioner...LADIES..ladies...LADIESSSSS!..this stuff has my hair feeling like <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">BUTTA</span> not butter but <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">BUTTA</span>! I love it..it instantly leaves my hair soft and gives it great SLIP! (a MUST)! <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">Detangling</span> is a dream :). If you are a conditioner nut, as I am one, then you will need to stock up on this stuff HEAVY! And its under 2 BUCKS! (HOORAY FOR CHEAP!) <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">Ok</span>, next we have Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Deep Conditioner! I use this ALL the time, my hair loves it...it really is a miracle!.erika.http://www.blogger.com/profile/10845076539119528605noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7938048892392078801.post-19157343994338675432010-11-18T17:03:00.002-06:002010-11-18T17:04:27.325-06:0027 Weeks Post Relaxer!!<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Tyv_5E3XP4E/TOWwy_LBHYI/AAAAAAAAA_E/ZBQRr3eoan0/s1600/textshot.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 300px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5541029306546855298" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Tyv_5E3XP4E/TOWwy_LBHYI/AAAAAAAAA_E/ZBQRr3eoan0/s400/textshot.jpg" /></a><br /><div>Just a texture shot!

I'm so excited to let you all know that I WILL BE GOING NATURAL AGAIN! I've attempted this twice..and failed. So you may be wondering, what's different now....GROWTH...not hair growth...but MENTAL GROWTH. Even though I did <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">alot</span> of researching and browsing I still <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">didn't</span> have the knowledge I needed to BC...so I <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">chickened</span> out and relaxed both times. I feel this is right for me at the moment in my life...I'm so over relaxers...<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">I'm</span> already 16 weeks post relaxer :).

I'm in Louisiana and it's HUMID!...and will be until hurricane season is over :( I've decided that any straight hair is OUT the question. Anywho, with that said I will be rocking curls all summer long!<br /><br />I cowash my hair with Silken Child Con, set with Elasta QP Foam setting lotion and a little Sally's GVP Silk Remedy...air dry 100% and take them down when they are dry. That's pretty much it ladies, simple..easy...and it last LONG!.erika.http://www.blogger.com/profile/10845076539119528605noreply@blogger.com16tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7938048892392078801.post-31046716267181700142010-06-21T14:44:00.003-05:002010-06-21T14:53:56.468-05:00My Daughter's Hair<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">I'm</span> seriously lost as to what products I should be using on her hair...at the moment I use pure Olive Oil and water...suggestions?!
