Hi again LadyT, I went back and reviewed ALL of your earlier videos..how in the world did I misss that you HAD the exact same thinning problem that I HAVE?! This is the very reason I am going natural. I am in month 7 of my transition...in mth 12 I will chop, but I wanted to say how WONDERFUL this video is, and how enlightening your COMPLETE hair-story has been to me. Just WONDERFUL WONDEFUL! Your beauty, humor and strength shine through and is TRULY an inspiration! Yay! There is hope for me!!
Natural hair is the absolute way to go. . I did the big chop a year ago as well and my hair has doubled in length as wella s super healthy. If I had only know long time ago, a perm would have never touched my head. Love it. .Keep inspiring.
@crochetchic91 Thanks! You do not have to BC. Just do a long term transition until you feel comfortable. I am impatient and the two textures drove me crazy lol That's why I did the BC...and I don't regret it. It gave me time to learn my hair in its short stage.
@melodyalexandrajones This comment just made my day! Thanks for your kind words! I got so tired of the thinning and spots in my hair. I don't regret going natural not one bit! Good Luck!
Thanks for sharing your natural hair journey. I love watching your videos. I am 9 months natural. Cannot wait till my hair grows out. You have such a wonderful and beautiful spirit. Cannot wait to see what you will bring in 2012. Have a blessed and safe holiday season.
Girl, I got misty-eyed. Look at your hair. Lord, it's all kind of gorgeousness, loveliness, and cuteness. WOW!!!!! I'm cheesing right along with you, sis. I appreciate you for sharing your journey with us. Do or did you have a length goal? Congrats!!!!!
BEAUTIFUL! You have inspired me to try harder. I have been natural for about 1 year and have not seen such results; however, I haven't been taking care of my hair like I should. Great vid!
You have MASS video editing skills, gurl!! Keep 'em coming. I get so bored watching the same stuff over and over. I would watch this again. You choice of music, changes in scene, and variety of time really add to the creativity of your videos. Keep it up!!...You have a new and fresh twist on the same ol' same ol...Great job!!!
AMAZING !!!! this is by far one of the best vids of hair growth etc very well put together, organized the production EVERYTHING you better rock that hair girl!!!!!
Love your personality and I appreciate the fact that you are not much into protective hairstyles. I wear my signature afro and it is rather big now. I do protective styles periodically, but not often. I have VERY low maintenance. Also, I never had a perm in my life, but I did start from a TWA two years ago after cutting my hair off for years and years. I love your blow dry look at shoulder length a LOT. I amy considering blow drying once. Thank you for such fabulous energy! Bravo!
Love it! Thick and healthy progress. I made one year and want to flat iron, but I'm afraid I'm going to either hate it or love it too much...I want to love it enough to do it every now and then, but if it comes out anything like your flat iron I know I will get heat damage..lol I'm a "hat" girl in the winter (dont like my head cold) so my plan is to keep it semi straight for the winter starting Jan 2012 (3/4 months) Always loved your hair. Great Job!
Thanks 4 every video yu posted its been really helpful 2 me yu gave me courage to keep on the journey of natural hair I'm 4 and a half months and seeing how much your hair has grown I will never go back 2 a purm thanks so much can't wait 4 more videos :)
I discovered you only about 3 weeks ago - and I watched all your vids- love them informative yet straight to the point your hair is gorgeous and the length you have gained is phenomenal! Keep it up and don't stop sharing your journey with us :-)
Wow, I just had to comment! My BC: May 1, 2010, and my hair grew out at the same rate! I laughed so hard when you did that APL dance! And now, in April I can't believe that mine is just about grazing BSL. People always tell me that my hair grew back so fast, but it seems normal to me, and I have now found my hair twin!!! Oh and we have the same texture too, so I'm going to have to steal some of your 'dos.... gorgeous!
You are by far my all time fav now!!!!!! I understand what that smile means. I'm working on my videos so I hope I can do as good of job as you. Your video is AMAZING!!!! Happy 18 month anniversary.
Now This is motivation!!!! Thanks for Posting this video. I've wanted to go natural for a while now but am afraid to do the big chop because I've had long hair my whole life. But this is motivation!!! Thanks again!!
Great layout!! And great progress! You can notice the change in moisture (or shine?) in you hair as you progress. And also the 6month difference was immense! Inspiring! :D
This is so beautiful! girl at first i didnt like my twa i thought i looked like a boy. but everyday i watch this i get inspired! Your a young beautiful black women keep doing what you do:)
You are so inspiring...STILL, You were a BIG inspiration along with Sasha that I BC'd. Always rocking a hot style and your growth is crazy!!! Great video.
gotta do another comment, you just make me smile and laugh like crazy you have such a wonderful personality in your vids and i bet irl too. rock on chica you are beautiful!
Omg!! Just beautiful...I was telling your aunt Shemika how pretty your hair is....I can't wait until I get that length, I will be one year natural in January. Take care
LOLOL! That little creepy blow-dry skit you did was cute! Thanks for the inspiration, I can't wait to reach my 18 months. Although, I didn't trasition, I did the "real" Big Chop. I could see my scalp back when it happened. Good luck to you!
OMG, Great job, I transitioned for a few months then cut off my hair the end of October, I cut my hair 4inches all around, and I'm now 5.5 inches, so it's true, natural hair IF taken cared of will GROW.....:)
Yay congrats on making it to 18 mos! Your hair looks great! I'm celebrating 2 years of being natural so I can relate to your journey. There's no turning back now! =0)
@crochetchic91 Girl go for it! I was in your same boat until I finally said enough! My last relaxer was May'10 and I did the bc May'11 (5 days shy of my bc). I've been natural for almost 7 months and I'm loving it!! Whether you choose to bc or long term transition, there are tons of vids here on YT to get you through it.
@crochetchic91 Hi there! I transitioned for 17 months before I chopped. It really helped me because I treated my tresses as if they were already natural. I learned tons of different no heat styling methods & reached BSL before I started cutting away at my ends. Do whatever is comfy for u - & I agree w/MsChante; there's a huge support system for you! :)
