What a difference time makes....

It's amazing, seeing the difference between the state of my hair in a mere two years - it's amazing, and wonderful, and I can only dream of what the next to years will bring.




Hrm, where do I start?

First - the thickness! My hair is at least three times thicker now than it was then. I actually did SMALL twists this go around (it took me about 5 hours to do them all - I split it out over two days, so it wouldn't drive me too crazy), and even the tiniest of twists (which would be about 1/4 the size of my 'normal' sized twists now) are still bigger than the May06 twists!

The length - obviously so much longer! I grin when I look at that, because I was, to all intents and purposes, bald in May06. I cut off EVERY cm of length I had at that point in time, and two years later, my hair is still significantly longer.

The color - dammit, I've gotta admit it, I LIKED the red. The red looked good on me. The dark brown does look good on me too, but - it's not the same. *sigh* And, yeah, I tried the cinnamon, and, oh my gods, no. Wanna talk about something grainy? *shudder* Actually, that's a whole nother story.

Now, for the things the picture doesn't show....

My hair is SO mch healthier. It's insane really, just thinking back on how much my hair broke, and how hard, and dry it was - it was insane. I have to admit, my hair has always had some shine to it, but most of the shine from then was from the ORS Lock & Twist gel, and not from my hair.

My hair, right now, is SO soft, and dense, and fluffy. I'm getting closer and closer to believing that I'm a iii - even when it's all squished down, it's a lot of hair.

Everytime I see these progress shots, I get so EXCITED over the potential that my hair has. In two more years, it should be at least twice as long as it is now - and - it's just amazing - and exciting - and something to look forward to.

I think that is the main reason that I'll never get 'tired' of my hair - it's got so much POTENTIAL! I'm truly going places I've never gone before, and it's a pretty straight forward path there.

Protection. Moisture. Love.
