So, I've been practicing using hair sticks. I think I'm getting the hang of them. I've got my eye on a beautiful hair fork. Kinda expensive though, but I'm sure I'll get it soon, I can't stop thinking about it. Wink
 
 
 
 
Also, I decided a few months ago to go natural. I'm not dyeing my hair any more. A couple days ago, I mixed some conditioner and little bit of medium ash brown, semi-permanent. I wanted to darken up my length to match my roots better. I am happy with the results. I think you can tell in the picture my hair is darker.

I'm so excited, I just ordered my first hair fork! barmy The color is charcoal silvertone, I thought it would match my new salt & pepper hair. Smile
 
This is the color...
 
 
 
 
The next one I want to get is purple, my favorite color! It's pretty popular, it's out of stock for now.
 
 
 
I like this one too.....
 
 
 
 
I'm still waiting on a new flexi and hair stick I bought. I hope to get them soon and get some new pictures up.
 
 
Everythings going good. I'll be measuring and taking progress picture March 1st. I'm getting close to APL!

*** Warning Roots Ahead ***    
I know some people hate them....
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This was taken outside to get actual color....
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The best decision I've made is to stop dyeing my hair! I want long and healthy hair. I forgot how much I liked my dark hair. So what if theres white highlights. Tongue
 
 
Thanks again Mike!  I appreciate your support!

I just got done trimming my bangs. I am so psyched, they are almost all my natural color! barmy
 
I'm thinking by May, I should reach 2 mini goals.
 
1) APL
2) Bangs natural color
 
I don't think I mentioned this before, I'm growing out some of my bangs. They were a little too thick. As there growing out, they will be nice face framing layers.
 
 
I just ordered another fork. barmyI bought a red one this time. I'll post pictures when I get it!

Well, so much for not buying anymore hair toys! LOL Flexi-8 is having free shipping right now, so I had to take advantage of that! I also got a good deal on the swapboard for another flexi and barrettes. After all these come in, I  have my eye on 2 more hair forks. Then I will be happy with my collection!

Everythings going good! I'm loving my virgin hair, it feels so soft! I noticed I have to wash my hair more often though. I have to be careful not to dry out the old dye, so I'm working on that. It's been 5 months since my last trim. My ends look good and I don't feel the need to trim, so thats good! Getting closer to APL!  barmy   I've got some pictures of my new hair toys. I bought a little purple heart fork and a royal blue flexi....
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I'm going to buy this fork. Then that will be it for awhile!!!
