Relaxer Update!!

Hey Ladies!!

Yes I did it, I may be a week earlier than planned but I just wanted to. After dealing with almost 13 weeks worth of new growth, I gave in.

I did a hard protein treatment the week before so doing it this week was perfect. Before going to the salon, I coated my ends with moisturizer and raw shea butter. I am now at my dad's house in NY so I barely had any products with me.

The lady at the salon was super rough with my hair, I had to tell her to calm down! I mean this was 13 weeks of growth but she was combing like she had never seen natural hair before.

here's what it looked like before

And a close up:

there was this old lady who came in for a touch up and I literally wanted to send her home. She had what looked like only 3 weeks of new growth and the hairdresser lady told her she badly needed a touch up. Then she coated all of the lady's strands with the relaxer! So glad I supervised my relaxer.

Anyway,  she put some  deep conditioner on and I sat under the dryer for several minutes. Then, while she was roller setting my hair, she started to rake the comb  through. I was like "Uh Oh Lady back up!" I'm joking I'm way too demure to speak to someone like that lol. But, I did ask her to comb my hair from the ends up. She seemed to be fed up with me telling her what to do with my hair, but I didn't care. 

By the way, good news! I'm now using a full head of grey rollers! yaay 

Here Is the after picture :)

This experience confirms my love hate relationship with Dominicans, I hate the process but I love the results. I'm sort of like an addict, you just can't beat the 'gorgeousness' of your after a session with them.

I don't want to do a real length check with all the lines and stuff just yet. I won't do it until the end of the year. I am excited about how full it looks though! 

New full ponytail that is super bouncy! 

I really love how my hair feels and yes I am going to go back to the Dominicans before my flight. I want the blown out, flowing in the wind look for when I see my family, Some people may have to eat a few of their words haha!

Thanks for reading!
