You get a big thumbs up from me Girl! Your hair is truly healthy, shiny and very "flowing"! I am growing my hair out of a weave. I just got so tired of dealing with hiding the tracks, new growth (looks very bad when wearing a weave) and spending money on hair that was not my own. Now I am free! My coworkers, friends and family asked me why did I wear a weave in the first place. I just wanted to give my hair a rest. But instead of giving my hair a rest, it was in bondage for a year.
My hair is currently to my shoulders and is growing with the routine that I am on. I wear a satin scarf when I am sleeping, take Shen Min hair vitamins, drink plenty of water and have a daily dose of vegatables and fruits. Even my nails and skin have been looking better! I am so happy that I stopped putting my hair in weaves.
I checked out your photo album and you really know how to hook up some hair. Keep your hair looking beautiful. You prove to me that women of color can truly have great looking hair that is not fake!
Caramela, Your hair is ever so beautiful. Your pictures was an inspiration to me as well. I have one question though. You listed some multivitamins in your post. Are all of those some type of pill you are taking, or is it an oil?

Yes, I do have a relaxer. You can look at my albums on picture trail to show you what length I am coming from. The link is http://www.picturetrail.com/caramela79
I have been growing my hair out for about a year to a year and a half, maybe. These hair discussion boards have helped tremendously! I try to take really good care of my hair, I always wrap it up at night in satin/silk. I only use wide tooth combs, and I don`t use blowdryers or curling irons. I wet set my hair under a hood dryer. That`s about the only heat my hair knows. I wash weekly, first applying olive oil as a hot oil treatment, then shampoo and I deep condition it every week! I use Motions CPR. Lastly, I lightly oil my ends every night, to help keep them strong and pliable/supple so they don`t break off. If you want to keep hair on your head, you have to give special care to the ends of your hair. And ends can be the driest part of the hair, and a lot of times dryness leads to breakage. So to combat that, like I said, I oil the ends and do weekly conditioning. I am also taking vitamins for hair growth. A multivitamin, biotin, silica, msm, evening primrose oil, flaxseed oil, & ultranourishair. Hope this info helps.
