5 Year Natural Hair Journey
You usually don't see the hair growth until you look back on all your pictures from when you FIRST started your hair journey until NOW. I'll be taking you on my Journey with me From cutting my LOCS to having NATURAL HAIR.
A little back story: I had locs since I was 5. I cut them when I turned 12. I moved to South Carolina and I didn't know how to do hair so I got them back when I was 13. I cut them again in 2013 right before I graduated High School (Wasn't the best decision to make and I didn't know how to do hair).
I'm not going to make this all long and drawn out because the pictures will explain it for you. I'll just let you know what year it was and what the hairstyle was. If that's okay with you all? I hope so because I'm doing it anyways.
Little Me- I can't really remember the year but Those are my locs!
2013- I had no clue what to do with my hair, until I started watching Youtube. You will see the progress

Thank you much Chad!
DeleteLovely hairs you have got. Beautiful and shiny hair always leaves good impression, which is why proper hair care is important. Also, good care of your hair plays an important part in having healthy hair and helps avoid extensive damage that can lead to hair loss.
