It's been exactly 6 months since I had my last relaxer (I would post pictures but my camera sucks at texture shots so it would be pointless). So far it hasn't been as difficult as I expected but going out has presented somewhat of a problem. Usually when I go out to a party/club/etc I wear my hair down but for some reason it's just not as easy to style it hanging down while transitioning. It's especially hard for me because I'm a person who likes to wear her hair straight and hanging down but I know that's not the best thing to do when trying to transition. It's just hard to break old habits.
On the plus side, I usually keep my hair in a ponytail or bun during the week so I guess that's something. I still haven't eliminated heat (and to be honest I'm not sure I ever will), but I've SERIOUSLY cut back on it. There was a time when I was flat ironing my hair pretty much every day but now I only do it after I wash my hair if I'm not doing a transitioning style. I really haven't done any transitioning styles for a while because the last few times I tried something new and it came out looking crazy so I just got frustrated and straightened it. Maybe on the next wash day I'll go back to a twist out or bantu knot out because I know those styles actually work for me.
Anyway, that's all for now. Nothing special just a little hair update.
