6 Months!!!!

It has officially been 6 months since I cut my hair! May 29th feels like forever ago, and I may as well be a different person from who I was then. I knew very little about taking care of curly hair. I only knew of flat irons, curling rods, and relaxers. Now I know so much about keeping my ends healthy and keeping the frizz to a low level. I will go through my yearly challenges to give an update.

1) No Heat.

This one has been the most pleasant surprise. I have not touched a flat iron or even a blow dryer in six months and my hair is singing because of it! It is also thick and strong and I know that has to do with the minimal heat usage.

2) No Relaxers

I can't believe I ever put them in my hair in the first place. The only thing it did was make my hair look longer but I will never use it again and compromise my pretty coils.

3) No Hair Dye

Very little urges with this one. I like my dark brown color now.

4) No tight ponytails or styles

Loose braids and buns have been my best friends.

5) No dry (bristle) brushing

Haven't done it at all and not missing it!


So far I have conquered my challenges and I will go into these last 6 months strong with the same energy I had on May 29th. Here we go!!!
