My Hair Story

Hello lovelies!

As I previously stated, I'm changing the content of my blog. This will be the first post going in that direction! My hair story will be a general look at the condition of my hair now and what it was like in the past. I'll do more in depth posts on hair products, regimens etc.

I've decided to take more of an interest in my hair lately and fix the problems I currently have. My hair is relaxed and has been for as long as I can remember. My biggest issue right now is breakage. My hair breaks regularly. There are almost always small strands of hair littered across my shoulders. I've dealt with it for years but not anymore. I've relied on my hair dressers to inform me of my hair's overall health and condition. And honestly now that I think about it, only one of the many hairdressers I've had ever addressed my hair's condition. at this point in my life,


My freshman year of high school, September of 2008, I got light brown highlights.


In May of 2011 I got a glue in weave for my boyfriend's prom. I will NEVER make that mistake again!


Shortly after this point I started going to the Dominican salon to get my hair done. Overtime, my hair started thinning out. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of this time to show you the before and after shots. I'll try to find some for you guys later!

In October of 2012 I cut my hair. I was in college at this point and I LOVED it!

From 2012 to 2015 I didn't do much with it. I kept it cut short but in June I decided to grow it out some more. To help myself out with that, I got a protective style. For the last month, I've had faux locs in. They were about bra strap length.


The above photo was taken two weeks ago just days before I cut them out. I am very happy to say that my hair grew about an inch and a half while it was in the locs!!!! I'm so excited! I had been trying for months to grow my hair out without seeing much of a result.

So that's about it for this post. In the upcoming posts, I'll go more into detail about my hair care regimen, products etc.
