HAVE I MADE PROGRESS?

Welcome to my place:)
I started this journey in 2007. As I made many updates in my life I decided to take better personal care of me. I have tried to transition 2x the first time I had not a clue of what I was doing. The second time I realized my hair mass and toddler did not mix. The attempt to learn how to deal with my hair and him was too much. So I am currently texlaxing and stretching.
*****************************
WANT TO ASK ME A QUESTION?
WHEN IT COMES TO ME NEVER FEEL THAT YOU ARE ASKING TOOO MANY QUESTIONS.. I TELL EVERYONE THIS BECAUSE I KNOW HOW I FELT WHEN I STARTED THIS JOURNEY GOING TO CERTAIN PEOPLES ALBUMS AND LEAVING QUESTIONS MORE THAN 3 TIMES AND NEVER GETTING A RESPONCE. GOING TO THEIR PAGE FREQUENTLY LOOKING FOR THE RESPONSE...SEEING THEM RESPOND TO OTHERS...THE 1ST TIME I THINK MAYBE YOU JUST DID NOT GET A ROUND TO IT. LIFE IS BUSY BUT AFTER THE 3RD OR EVEN 4TH TIME I FEEL YOUR ALBUM IS ONLY FOR VIEWING OR MAYBE DELETING. SOME PEOPLE I NOTICED ONLY RESPONDED TO PEOPLE WHO HAD SIMILAR HAIR TO THEIRS OR ONLY HAIR THEY COULD GIVE A " OH YOUR HAIR IS PRETTY" COMMENT TO. THAT IS WRONG. I SEE BEAUTY IN EVERY HEAD OF HAIR THAT COMES ACROSS FOTKI. ALL MY GIRLFRIENDS BELIEVE THAT I WILL END UP LEAVING MY EDUCATION TO GO INTO HAIR HEALTH AND CARE BECAUSE I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN IN IT FROM A TEEN. I ACTUALLY WAS A FEW STEPS FROM GETTING MY BARBERING LICENSE A FEW YEARS BACK.. I LOVE HAIR THAT MUCH..LOL WE WILL SEE..
ANWAY WE ARE ON FOTKI TO HELP AND FOR THOSE OF US LIKE ME WHO SOMETIMES DON'T DETAIL , WE MUST BE PREPARED TO ANSWER QUESTIONS. THERE IS NOOOOOOO DUMB HAIR QUESTION, THERE IS NOOOO ANNOYING HAIR QUESTION, OK!!!!..LOL THAT IS THE REASON I GO STRAIGHT TO A PERSON ALBUM AND THANK THEM FOR THEIR VISIT .JUST IN THE CASE THAT DURING A COMMENT I MISSED A QUESTION. SO I SAY ALLLLLLL THAT TO SAY IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION ASK. :)

LET ME EXPLAIN MY HAIR!!

I NEVER DID A BIG CHOP. I DID CUT 5 INCHES OF HAIR AT THE BEGINNING OF MY JOURNEY ONLY BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WOULD GROW FASTER.(NOT TRUE). I DID AT THE BEGINING DO A 9 MONTH STRECTH IN ATTEMPTS TO GO NATURAL. I RELAXED AFTER 9 MONTHS AND HATED IT. SO I DID ANOTHER STRECTH OF 3 MONTHS I THINK AND THEN TEXLAXED. TEXLAXING IS DONE DIFFERENT BY MANY BUT THE MAIN OBJECTIVE IS TO UNDER PROCESS THE HAIR SO IT IS NOT STRAIGHT BUT TEXTURED. HENCE FORTH GIVING THE NAME TEX-LAX.. HOW I TEXLAX IS --I USE SOFT AND BEAUTIFUL REGULAR RELAXER - I ADD A CAP FULL OF OLIVE OIL OR 2--I ADD A HEAPING SPOON FULL OF MY THICK CONDITIONER.( LAST TIME IT WAS QUEEN HELEN). I MIX AND APPLY TO THE MIDDLE OF MY HEAD FIRST BECAUSE IT IS THE CORSEST, THEN THE BOTTOM BACK, THEN I WORK FROM THE TOP MIDDLE FORWARD. I THEN APPLY TO THE EDGES. I GATHER ALL MY RINSING SUPPLIES, HEAD TO THE BATHROOM, SET UP MY NEEDED ITEMS AND WASH OUT. SO I WOULD SAY IT IS LEFT IN MY HAIR 5-7 MIN .MAX AND YES MY HAIR PROCESSES THAT FAST. THEN I DO 4-6 MONTH STRECTHS . SO WHEN YOU SEE MY TEXTURE I LOOK VERY NATURAL BECAUSE I MOSTLY AM.LOL... MY TEXTURE IS VERY WAVY. I WAS NATURAL THROUGHOUT HIGHSCHOOL. BUT I WAS AFRAID OF THE HOT COMB AND DID NOT HAVE A CLUE ON HOW TO MAINTAIN MY MASS OF HAIR.. BUT I WILL EVENTUALLY DO A LIFE LONG STRECTH AND END THE TEXLAXING.

--HAIR GOALS

**UPDATE!!!! NEW GOAL- - FULL HIP LENGTH BY DECEMBER 2009....**
