Merry Christmas and many blessings for the coming New Year!!
This blog started off as an inspiration and log of my hair transistion. That journey is complete. I have been fully natural since 2005.

Hair update
Freshly shampooed conditioned and blow-dried somewhat |
I thought I would share a picture of my hair. The angle this picture has been taken in can be deceiving, but it show how uneven the length of my hair is. I have always had problems with the sides of my hair with breakage. My current reliance on protective styling such as half wigs and extensions may be the cause or my past dye job as its only the ends with colour that break. Please note that my hair is not thick at all. It is very fine textured but dense. When I relaxed my hair, it had no body and that was because it is naturally fine.
When I dyed my hair ages ago it became really dry, though I managed to get the moisture levels back in order. At present my hair has a colour that is not pretty but once I have visited my hairdresser I will see what he thinks I should do. I am actually going to let him take about an inch off. I have not trimmed my hair in over a year. I have spotted split ends so I need to get them removed.
Although I have suffered from breakage I really want my hair to be in Senegalese twists. People are charging £60-80 for that and at present is a lot for me to pay. Especially when right now there are some material things I really wish to buy like a new car.
I guess for the new year my aim will be to correct the colour and research and perfect the moisture levels in my hair. I am also about to place my order for some Miss Jessies products from British Curlies, while the offer is still on. I will also try out a product from Darcy Botanicals.
If you have any product suggestions or routine tips or general advice please share. I am all for learning if told in the right way.
