Wow! It has been almost 4 months since I last blogged. Of course, much has happened, 15 year HS reunion, my son's father got married, Christmas/New Year's in N.O. during which I met his new wife and his new mother-in-law (talk about ambushed), my son's uncle/godfather passed away (heart attack at 35 y/o), girl meets new boy, girl stops talking to said new boy, girl has a wonderful "run-in" with an old boy from the past (read between the lines on that one), and now girl decides to avoid all those topics to talk about hair, lol. I may get to them later, but just note that I have high hopes for 2012 and brought this New Year in smiling...aaaaaannnnd dancing barefoot on a couch in a club with a champagne flute in hand. Buuutttt, back to the point of this blog...
I have to admit that I have not been as good with taking care of my hair as I was in the beginning of last year. I am trying to get back in the groove but my schedule doesn't allow for all-day spa sessions. But what I have noticed is...I don't have to sacrifice "life" for my hair. And what I mean is, I would continuously watch youtube vids and follow the do's and don'ts of growing out my hair but it's really not THAT serious. I have done all the wrong things like not sleeping with a satin bonnet, using un-natural products, used heat, not protective styling, and plain ole not really giving a sh*t to a certain extent. So here's my progress...
January 2011
You couldn't tell me that my hair wasn't banging then!
October 2011
November 2011
Used a blow-dryer to stretch
December 2011
Got countless comments on whether or not this was all of my hair...nothing against weave, I just simply can't afford it.
And back again!
So, my new hair goals for 2012...have fun with it!
