Title: My hair journey! View count: 23374 Rating: 4.683544 (79 ratings) Description: I started my journey on November 18, 2006. I got a relaxer on June 2006 for my high school graduation, and i wasn't really happy with my length (jawline length). So i got box braids (August 2006) in the mean time trying to figure out what path to take with my hair. I fell upon black hair boards and hair sites in October 2006, and got a lot of tips and stuff from a lot of great women. Once i removed my braids, i officially began my journey on November 18, 2006. I got another set of braids right after i took out my August braids, and thus started my stretching periods. I stretched for 9 months, from the time of my high school graduation until April 4, 2007. I'm very patient, so stretching comes very easily to me. And my hair obviously loves it! From April 4, 2007 until April 4, 2009, i did 4 consecutive 6 month stretches. I started from neck length after the trim on April 2007, and ended up APL on my last 6 month stretch of April 2009. I find that the longer my hair gets, the more tangles i get with my relaxed ends and the thick new growth. Also, with my new hair length, i find it harder to have box braids, because its hard to sleep in long fake hair lol..So i decided that this would be my last 6 month stretch. From now on, starting from April 4, 2009, i will relax every 3 months. Next relaxer is on July 4, 2009. Thanks for watching ladies! Feel free to ask any questions.. ;) APL = Armpit length BSL= Bra strap length Song is by Drake "Sooner Than Later" Rate, comment, and subscribe!
