About My Hair

Jan. 2009

I never had long hair growing up, my hair is just now starting to grow the longest it have ever been which is to my shoulders I would say. I always had thin hair and always wanted to have long hair but because of excessive perming, heat and not using the right products I couldn't achieve it. I use to have my hair straightened with the hot comb when I was younger by my mom but it would rain and my hair would get frizzy and puffy which I hated. So I told my mom I wanted a perm and got my first perm
at age 13 but would get it every 4 weeks (a touch up). I wore extensions in the summer too but notice there would be some type of breakage or split ends. So I started wearing weaves especially since I was going away to college and wanted to not have to deal with my hair too much, plus there was no good hairdressers where I went to school at either. My hair did grow but unfortunately I went to a hairdresser in Rochester, NY to get a weave done and she sewed in most my hair but glued the track on the top of my hair which broke my hair at the top. In 2009 I cut my hair to ear length so that my hair can grow thicker and for it to be even but I also put highlights in it which broke my hair alittle as well. I continued wearing weaves but weaves did really make my hair grow and the hairdresser in Rochester was my only bad experience with a weave. I notice my hair was growing alot between 2010-2011 but again I want HEALTHY long hair not just long hair.  :)
