Hair journey! 12-20-11

For the past year I have been looking up black hair and how to care for it. I've been wanting to start my hair journey for some time now but I've been busy with college. Now that I'm on break and am really considering it. I want to acquire as much knowledge I can before starting my journey, I don't plan on it being perfect but I want it to go as smooth as possible me and my hair have been through a lot already lol. So my first steps are creating a solid regimen that I know I have time to follow the next step is journaling my journey which will probably be on here and in a notebook. Taking pictures of progress, measurements, and successful products and reviews. So I think I will no not think I WILL try out products and make a SOLID regimen of specific products that work best for me. So far I for sure know that I am keeping my Jamaican Black Castor Oil and Nioxin Vitamins that have worked wonders for me already. The reason I want a solid regimen first is because I know what my hair needs which is repetition and I also want to avoid becoming a product junkie. My hair is currently relaxed and I plan on staying relaxed but stretching as much as possible. I am taking my sew in out within the next couple of days and perming- will take pictures to show where I currently am. My journey will be mostly focused on building healthy hair first and then working on length.

Longer and stronger hair/nails

Last year I came across a video on YouTube about vitamins, ones specifically for hair and skin and nails. I seen a lady do a review on vitamins called Nioxin and she swore on it, saying she had amazing results and that it does exactly as it says and was growing her hair tremendously. I wanted to try it and thought maybe it doesn't work for everyone but hey, it's worth a try. So I ordered some online, amazon for $25 for 90 so I said I would give it a three month trial period and see how everything goes. I did exactly that and it worked lovely!!! You don't see the result immediately (everything takes time) going into my second month I noticed stronger and fuller hair (less breakage and damage when washing and detangling) I was ecstatic and couldn't believe the results I was seeing!
