Finally Spring _General Update

So, in recommending this blog to a friend that is thinking about going natural, I decided I should update you on what's going on with my hair.

So, although I am an advocate for going natural, I will say, I do think I need to straighten my hair for events that will result in money handling (photography jobs) and interviews. So last week I had both scenarios and got my hair straightened at 7am!!!

So, today will be the last day for my hair being straight...and it lasted for about 1.5 weeks - I could probably hold out a little longer, but honestly, I can't stand the way my hair begins to stink...so I must wash it...and thus the $75.00 I spend for a wash, blow, flat iron and trim...will be lost...yeah, $75.00 - are you kidding me?!!!

Here are a few pictures I've taken with my hair straight - I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the length and I continue to be surprised at how much it has grown. My two year anniversary will be in July - I think I should celebrate.

When I set out on this journey I had a straight hair goal and a natural hair goal...and I've reached my straight hair goal length I desired...I still have a way to go on my natural state length though, but I'm confident I will get there...eventually!

I got a baby trim this time, because I wanted to see the true length, but judging from my ends, I really need to go in again and let her take off at least half an inch. Okay, enough talk, here are the pictures.
