margejj03...a few sept. updates
Hey everyone's, sorry it is taking me so long to update my album. Between my camera breaking and my personal life, it's hard to update as much as I would like. So please just bear with me (or not) and keep me and my family in your prays.

I made it to five years natural July 2009. Yeahhh me!!! I transitioned for about 3 months then cut of the ends. I started out with about 3-4 inches of growth. I did get discouraged for a minute and was thinking about perming my hair, but then I got over that hump and I am really enjoying my natural journey.

Right now my hair is approaching bra strap. I bet my nephew a dollar that I could have hair almost to my butt five years from now, so needless to say I have a lot riding on this..lol. I have to change the minds of young folks at a young age about natural hair, in five years from now he will be old enough to have a job so I plan to get my money!

I have failed in REALLY taking care of my hair like I should, but hopefully I can put an end to that. This year I will concentrate on deep conditioning and moisturizing more often. This means deep conditioning once a week and moisturizing almost daily. My hair gets so dry sometimes especially being in this Florida weather. I will keep braids that I will maintain for a couple of months using the same method, still do the baggie method on occasion, and continue to twist my own hair sometimes. I think protective styling is what helped me achieve the growth I have now, I just need to step my game up a notch.

Feel free to roam my album and offer any advice that you can. Hope to hear from you soon!
