3.5 Years Post Relaxer Flat Iron + Length Check

Hey guys! I flat ironed my hair for the first time since February 2013! Check out the video below to find out how I achieved this look, and what my hair growth goals are for 2014 and beyond!



And here are a few pictures! I have marked off the area where my waist (WL) is for me.

Hair brushed straight down...

Hair brushed into "V" shape...

Look back at it...lol

And here's what it looked like on 1/4/14 after I trimmed off 1 to 2 inches...

Black Women Gone Blonde!

Hello heart breakers! If you are familiar with my Youtube channel, then you've probably heard me discuss coloring my hair. I've never dyed my hair before, and I have been looking into it for a few years. In fact, one of the main reasons I went natural was so I could experiment with color as safely as possible.My relaxed hair was healthy, but I didn't want to risk having two chemicals in my hair at once. I've heard many horror stories about coloring while relaxed. And the women in my family always suffered from a setback if they added color to their healthy relaxed hair. At any rate, I really want to take the plunge this summer and go some shade of light brown with blonde highlights. Possibly 4/27, or something closer to the freetress wigs that I wear in the color F33/32/240. Now, it is just a matter of finding someone to get the job done. Wish me luck guys! In the meantime, here are some pictures of me rocking blonde tones. I plan to stick to something more similar to the wig "Nari" below.
