Ten weeks post

so i am ten weeks post. i have changed my shampoo and conditioner to Cantu. so far i have noticed a tremendous difference. hand in hand with the Cantu, i have been using the AphoGee green tea spray. it has also help with the shedding. i cant run my fingers through my and take out as much of hair i like i used to. i try not to use it every wash to avoid protein overload, but i love that my hair is strengthening already. i straightened my hair and realized that my hair is getting longer. yay!!!!....for me, lol. i really feel like if i use this castor oil until i relax december 23rd that i will be at my goal for the year, APL by Christmas. i am so excited. i am also hoping for BSL by August 2010. its one goal at a time, but my APL and BSL goals are the two i am the most excited about. I don't know why. I was once at WL and i am not that excited about reaching it, lol, its backwards i know.

so i have four more weeks until i relax. i cannot wait until december.

9 weeks in

so i am officially 9 weeks into my stretch. i am experiencing severe shedding. however i have no plans on relaxing my hair early (however, do not quote me in case of emergencies). my goal is to solve the shedding when its at its worst. if i can manage my shedding during these dire times, it will be a breeze any other time. so my goal is to stop it or slow it tremendously. from this day foward, i am going to collect my shedding hair and have a comparsion at my next nine week mark of my next stretch. i am only washing my hair once a week. i have gotten lazy with the moisturizing and applying castor oil. i promise to get back on the bandwagon. december 23rd is the day. hopefully i will hit my APL mark. i am excited. no more trims until mid febuary early march. im so excited. if i don't hit APL, i know i will get close and i know that i have worked hard for it. i will be disappointed but i will be ok and i will relax again march 20-31. between june and august, i am praying for BSL.

until next time.
