Bye Bye Bleach....and Perm Hair
Hello love dolls.....I wanted to show you guys what not having a perm for 1 year looks like....and remember I also cut my hair last year in February 2012 into a bob. I took this picture before clipping my ends and you can see all of my brown has pretty much grew out.....here are results of wearing sew-in and deep conditioning my hair for a year straight.
Picture taken Feburary 2013
So Lets Talk Transition Styles.........
1.) Sew-ins: are GREAT protective style you can switch it up to having long or short hair, you can even add a little color. I usually have 22inches or more of virgin remy and I keep it in for 8 weeks, also with sew-ins you can flat-iron, curl, and wash and blow dry the hair. Your real hair is braided underneath and protected.....I will say that it is very important to make sure your stylist doesn't install it to tight.
2.) Poetic Justice Box Braids: AWESOME ladies for the summer......this style has became popular again thanks to Solange Knowles and other celebrities. I love box braids for the summer because you can swim, workout, etc without having to worry about styling your hair after water hits it.

The Beginning
Hello to all my lovely ladies out there who are wondering if you should go natural without doing the big chop? I was told by friends and family that I should do a hair blog.........so here we are....I decided to stop getting perms after Feb 2012 which was the last time I used the creamy crack......My goal is to transition my hair into a natural state without doing the BIG CHOP. Now I will clip my ends to help the perm grow out but I refuse to cut all of my hair off........The key is to keep your hair protected and moisturize as well as clipping your ends so your hair will not break off.....It takes patients.........I will discuss products I use such as shampoo, conditioners, and moisturizers.........please join this journey with me....we can do it together ladies.......Love Jess
