Finally...Updates! Long Term Transition to Natural from Relaxer

Hey everyone...I am finally doing an update after so long. I first want to thank all of my subscribers who have been loyal and have sent me warm wishes and checking on me. I had a lot going on personal and business wise, but I am back.

I have been transitioning from a relaxer to natural hair for the past 18 months. Although the first 6 months were a challenge, it is now smooth sailing for me. I am hoping to help those who are struggling with transitioning that it can be done with patience and technique.

@Charoletta77 Thank you so so much! I really appreciate your support! Yes I still use the Signature Club A skincare. I have also incorporated Chagrin Valley soaps and moisturizer as well. I don't have a definite regimen with it, but it's every now and then.

Thanks so much for this video. I'm about to make a transition in not getting a relaxer next month. You have been helpful with your inspirational words. I won't be doing the BC, lol. I need to start baby steps first. Thanks again. *~*

your daughter hair is beautiful and long like mine , i want to transition because my hair is too long and healthy to just cut all off .i am in the third month and its growing fast , i am fallowing a lot of advice of keeping my hair moist to avoid breakage and i am also going to learn to braid my hair .

Glad to see you back!!! Your hair and skin are gorgeous as usual! How did you achieve the big "Curly fro" at :57 and 3:12 ? I LOVE that look. I am transitioning too, last relaxer was October 2009. I just recently got about 3.5 inches of relaxed hair cut off.

I really appreciatge your video about your concoction. I've been using it for the last month and it works really really well. I have so much less shrinkage and my hair is no longer dry.

Happy New Year! Peace and Blessings. I am happy that you are back on the YT. I always refer to your skin care tuts as well. I have not relaxed my hair since last Feb. Its coming along well but I wear braids. I dont know when Im going to debut the new natural me. Lol I hope that all is well with your health and family. If you can't make videos regularly its understandable. Family First!
