im half bajan(barbados) and half filipino (philippines) and my hair is REALLY crazy when i was younger my hair was just like my mothers straight  and thick then over the years it got big frizzy and CURLY then i got a relaxer a few yrs back the lady burned my hair. very bad:[  then i grew it out and not it is naturally curly!:] i love it . i usually where it curly but when straight it is so pretty about brastrap lenght right now
 
 
 
my goal is to be waist lenght im very excited to have joined the board

Welcome to HairBoutique bl@sian! It seems like you have a pretty good routine..is there any areas you're having troubles with or areas you'd like to improve in? If not, I don't know what else you could or should do to it, being as your current routine has been working fine for you.
 
I love Cantu Shea Butter Leave-In, I've been meaning to try the rest of the line.

The baggie method is when you moisturize your hair, seal with an oil of your choice and put on a plastic cap. You can leave on for half an hour or overnight, either or.
 
Hmm, I haven't had much experience with bleaching. Maybe you need to try the baggie method, incase your hair needs extra moisture, since the bleach can be very damaging to your hair.
