Greetings Ladies! :)

I am finally all natural ! I did not "BC", but I cut my hair gradually over time, for every few inches of new growth, I cut off a few inches of relaxed hair. I did cut my hair two times, from shoulder length to mid neck, I call those my "Mini Cuts".

Start of Transition: October 2006
Mini-Chops : May 2007, Oct. 2007
Last clipping of relaxed ends: June 2008

OLD HAIR GOALS:
***June 2008- Shoulder Length*** [X]
***December 2008- Armpit Length***[ X ] (Met in February 2008)
***June 2009-- Mid Back Length***[ ] never reached :(

NEW HAIR GOALS 2010:
*** February 2010*** More even Armpit Length [ ]
*** June 2010 *** BSL [ ]
