18 Months

I wonder how many times can we say, "I am so in love with my hair!" before it sounds like a broken record. I never would have dreamed in a million years that everyday I am more in love with my hair than I was the previous day. I will also add freshly tightened roots is a nice pick-me-up as well.


After perusing the 3 year updates of Brunsli and Katika, I am doing the Maryee happy dance more so now than ever because I am half way there. The time is flying by so fast one day at a time. Feet don't fail me now.

Your hair so pretty...nice and thick!

brunsli said...

A year and a half! Congrats!!

You really look great -- and I know it's cold there too!

I wish I had been as confident as you are at that stage. If I hadn't vowed to keep them three years, they would have been snipped off. IT really helps hvaing this blogging community. :)

Congratulations on the 18 month mark. Your hair is just so cute. I never did free style much in my short day but you do it so well.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I really like these photo's of you they look really good. Good idea by making one of them your profile photo :) Your hair is looking nice also.

If you ever decided to try an online dating service like E-Harmony, one of these photo's would be really nice (hint,hint).

My gosh, it has been 18 months huh?!
when you go back and look @ photos of your SLs in the beginning, you can really see the progression........................

Veta said...

congrats on being locked for 18 months, your hair looks full and healthy.

Goodnapps said...

Jen - Thank you so much. I think you've nailed it with your observation. I feel the flicking hair syndrome about to come on something real strong.

Chosen Vessel - Thanks so much. As long as they're turning out as great as yours, I'm happy.. As for OD - well that's another
story...

Nappytexangirl - Thanks so much ma'am. Would you believe when I first got my locks I had no intentions of taking all the photos
I take. Thanks goodness Paulette , her husband and the original bloggers convinced me othewise. When you see the comparison shots, it is absolutely amazing.

So to all the newbies - keep taking lots and lots of photos during all stages of your journey.

Veta - Thank you so much Veta!

Brenda said...

You're entitled to say it as many times as you like. Just imagine how many times you said you hated your hair before SL's! Looking Good!

BlaqKofi said...

I agree with you totally in every respect - I can't stop saying, writing & blogging about how much "I love my hair." The time does fly by so fast. Length and a retightening always add some peep to my step! Your locks are gorgeous and healthy. We locked 2 months apart. It's great to share the journey with you. We'll be doing the Maryee happy dance together one day - justa flingin' and swingin' our locks!

Chi-chi said...

Hey Lady,

I'm right behind you (: Great pic! You're hair is growing so nicely.

Tequila Jackson Allen said...

Dang Sista you sl's are looking quite fierce Growing like weeds nixe anf thick!

Goodnapps said...

Brenda - Thank you so much. You make an excellent point. After reading your comment, I couldn't ever remember a time where I told myself I loved my hair during the perm days. Of course there were times I felt like a hot tamale, at the expense of a very very fried scalp!

Blaqkofi - Thanks so much. I am definitely glad to be apart of this beautiful fellowship of women loving themselves and each other instead of trying to tear each other down.

Chi-chi - Thanks so much. I'll be looking for your update.

Lashaune - Thanks deary. I see your sl's are doing the same
thing.

Cloudnine - Thanks ma'lady!

Maryee said...

Girl, it's only gonna get better, and better, and better and better and better!!!!!!

Goodnapps said...

I know you are telling the truth Maryee. I believe, I believe!

Funlayo said...

Your hair is absolutely gorgeous. Beautiful and thick. I wish mine looked that good free styled. I have to keep mine curled in order to give the illusion of volume :)

Goodnapps said...

Thanks Funmi. But I do a lot of fluffing as well to try and keep a voluminous look. Now that I'm groomed, it will be interesting.
