Karbari - Aww thx! Yes ma'am I joined NP a little after I started transitioning if I remember correctly. I love to lurk there. :)
Posted by Lisa at August 21, 2005 12:49 PMApplauds the new photos.. you're still doing the damn thang I see (and doing it well). I'm loving the texture shots and the amazing looking puff..
I got frustrated with my hair and threw it up into a weeve. Heck with the napps for right now. It was that or press it (and you know how that goes)
Its just not doing what I think it should be doing. Uneven as hell (front is long and back is too damn short), don't want to cut the front even with the back or i'll feel bald again, shrinkage of 200%, had to blow dry it into submission and still won't behave... sighs.. Weeve will be my best friend for a long while, and then i'll fiddle with my napps again. Hell it's a transition and protective style, so i'm all good.
Posted by Reddy at August 25, 2005 11:27 PMYour hair looks fabulous!
My hair looks a lot like yours when it is wet. I have three different textures of hair. You are right it can look ‘helmety’.
I was doing regularly twisting my hair for a little while but I got tired of doing it! ;-) I am back to my Afro and occasionally I add a headband or a pretty flower clip to the side of my hair. I have the same problems with headbands I have had a lot of luck with the panty hose headbands. I am trying not to cut my hair for at least two years. It will be hard. I love short hair.
lisa you making me miss my loose naps. your hair is beautiful! just thriving and thangs!

Posted by blackcaesar at October 1, 2005 08:19 AMReddy - I so feel you on the weave thang...I've been getting some huge cravings for a kinky ponytail lately! Take your time gal...the naps are gone be there when you're ready to fiddle. :)
Diva - I'm getting a bit tired of twisting too (even though it's a great protective style), so I've been just doing the fro thing most of the week and staying on top of moisturizing. I need to go accessory shopping!
I love my hair at this length...on the shorter side, but not too short. But I still want to see how long I can get it. So we shall seeee if I can ride it out. :)
Feepee - Thx girlie!
BC - Awww thanks! :D
