September Relaxer Update, Forced Cut and Hairdresser Issues

Seems like forever....but we've been so busy and caught up with school there was practically no time to post. And so I never got you guys up to date with my relaxer, which was maybe the worst relaxer I've ever gotten. Not to mention too that terrible hairdresser who applied the relaxer on.

I had relaxed at 13 weeks post, and I used the the relaxer that the hairdresser provided which was the Profectiv no lye relaxer. I had read a couple of reviews on it online and it didn't seem so bad, but when it was applied to my new growth it was like fireeee. I got no visible burns from the relaxer but it was burning me the entire process, and not to to mention it got my hair so straight and lifeless even after the roller set it had no body. I was not sure if she used the regular or super on me but it got it beyond straight that it looked unhealthy.

How I Regrew My Edges- Part 2

Hi again guys, I gave you a lil info on how my edges thinned out in the Story of how I Lost my Edges. So in this post I'll be basically explaining what I did to get them back...so sit tight :)

Well most of you guys probably know from the story that my edges thinned out due to constant wearing of tight headbands. So I pretty much lost a good piece of my edges, I wouldn't say it was so much disastrous....but it was really really bad.

My method for growing them out was kinda simple, and it was just by scalp massaging and using Tropic Isle Strong Roots Red Pimento Oil.  So it was easy right? umm, not really.

The Story of How I Lost my Edges- Part 1

Hey guys, had a busy week so not much posting was done hope you guys aren't angry though. But we're back, and feeling energized *whoot whoot* lol. So the title is pretty self explanatory, I lost my edges a while back in Decemeber 2013 and trust me it was not a fun experience. It was kinda a gradual thing, but its like one day I woke up they were there, next day they were gone, sighh. My edges used to be much fuller, but they were also fragile so it didn't take alot of tension to get them to leave. And that was my mistake.                   
                       

                                  
These were the large headbands I wore.
