Welcome to the challenge Renee! That link do not work if u are not a member to the longhaircareforum but if u have a fotki u can  just go to your album and copy the link from the address bar and then post it here. That would be great.

I use pantene..it works great for me so far. The African American line did not react well with my hair. Did the damage happen right away or  over period for time?

Hey honeydoo, happy the link is helpful.

Hey Ladies don't forget, April 1st is this Friday. We will update our progress then. Ladies that just joined, if you want to add something now or update on May 1st is fine. It's just the first month, so I don't expect drastic changes, but I think everyone will have some positve things to say!!

Sounds good to me, tell use how it works. Have you heard
conditioner washes? U wash your hair as though it is shampoo,
don't worry you hair will be clean. I am only suggesting it, since
you are transitioning it might help with working with the new
growth. I would say, condition was more and use shampoo
less. For example, If u wash 2 times a week, I would wash with
shampoo once out of those 2 times. Just think about it and see
if it works. Sometimes u have to experiement.

 I just wanted to let you know I have my online album!   I will be updating it frequently.

Cebnn, your hair is so pretty like that! Do you curl it up or can you rollerset it this way? I tried curling it up this way a few months ago but to maintain it I had to curl everyday and I hated that. I need to get an online album but I'm not good with stuff like that.

I have not experienced this but some people do one roller set and the days following they pin it up at night (pin curls) and its the same the next day.

@ Nubianqt... u are welcome. Tell me if u like it or not.

@ Cebnn...your pics are nice and your son is adorable. I know how hard it is to take your own pics, I took most of mine. Alot of people think it's crazy to take pics of hair so i had to do it myself. U should see how many I take before they looked decent or weren't staring at something in the background.

Ok i see my name too much on this board, i feel like im getting annoying.

cmesweet.. I like seeing your name on the board so much, bc you give some of the best advice!

Update- well i trimmed and colored around mid-march. Went lighter for the summer. Still using Shapley's MTG every other day, on the alternate days- i use either shealoe butter, shea butter(unrefined) or organic hair butter. Still moisturizing at nite and placing a thin plastic cap on my head overnite. Still co washing daily. Still shampooing/deep conditioning weekly. I think my hair is doing fine- much less breakage and shedding, very moist. so i think that i will make it to my short-term goal on my 2 year nappy anniversary-June 6, 2005. I plan to get my hair braided on Sunday. Just some cornrows for 2-4 weeks.
