When I Was a Transitioner....

WARNING!!!!

THE PICTURES YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE ARE EXTREMELY EMBARRASSING

SO YOU BETTA NOT JUDGE OR LAUGH! jk 

Here are some pictures from when I transitioned back in 2008. I transitioned for 9 months and big chopped December 2008. I'm not gonna lie, transitioning was rough for me. It was difficult because I made the mistake of cutting my hair too short one day which I had never experience. That's not to say, that if you have short hair you can't transition, like with any length of hair you just have to know what options are out there for you as far as styling goes. During my transition period, I wore wash n gos (before the cut), ponytails, and baseball hats. Looking back I wish I would have done more styles like braids, braidouts, and roller sets.

So to wrap this post up, if you are currently transitioning or thinking about starting I suggest you do some research on different styles, especially protective styles, so you will feel better about yourself and you won't have to stress out as much about your hair.

***The last picture shows  where i cut all the relaxed hair off while transitioning. I was anxious to see my natural hair****

New Hair Color!!!!

Someone requested that I post some pictures of my new hair color on here. So here are some pictures I have taken since getting it done. I tried to get them from all angles and lighting so you could see the color. Enjoy!
