Relax Update #12

This was the picture I was referring to in my Relax Update #12 video. I took this picture Sept 2008 the week before I started my hair journey. I still had some "length" (a little above full arm pit length) but the overall appearance of my hair did not look that great. My hair was thin to the point where you could see my scalp! I knew there was something that needed to be fixed. Looking at this picture I know my hair has come so far and Im very happy with it.

I relaxed my hair 10weeks post this time instead of at 12weeks. I just wanted to see how my hair would process using Organic Root Stimulator relaxer (in normal) this time to see if I would experience anything different from my results from relax update #11. This time it did process a littLE better but still not as straight as it used to in the past (processed BONE STRAIGHT). I currently like the extra texture in my hair. At the moment I am not sure if I will leave the underprocessed areas alone or get it corrected. I am just going try out my semi "texlaxed" texture and see how it goes.

Foreign Exchange: Black Dress

My OOTN- I wore this out to a club in Hollywood (Dec. 23)

The material is super thin which I was not aware of until pictures were taken LOL

 Hey everyone this is the dress that I was talking about in my haul video. I bought this dress from Foreign Exchange for 22.50 (originally $44) The SALE WAS AMAZINGGGG! 

With the dress I wanted to pair it off with my leopard print shoes. These shoes are my favorite right now and they are comfortable!

Bakers website photo "Melina Leopard" 5 1/8 inch heel & platform 1 3/8

The Bakers "Melina" leopard print pumps at home in regular "real life" lighting. In person the shoes take on a warmer color tone of brown.

My accessories are the black beaded hoop earrings and matching black bangles which are also shown in my haul video that you can watch below.  

NAILLLLLLSSSSSSS!

The nail color that I have on is purple panic. I love this color!!!! You can also check out the video I did "China Glaze Purple Panic Nails".
