♥ Transitioning Diaries Pt. 9: Transitioning To Natural Hair 10 Months Post Relaxer (Curly/Natural Hair)

Oh my god! When compared to my 7 months update, it looks like it has almost grown twice as much lol? Maybe the way I took the pictures were different that time, but it has definitely grown a lot. See similar pictures but 7 months post relaxer, here.

The pictures below are of curls from the top of my head.

Finally! My 10 months post relaxer update, for those who have followed my journey on transitioning to natural hair. I have to say that overall it is going soo well, I am starting to realise that my hair has actually grown quite a lot, definitely average growth or slightly more (it's hard to tell exactly how much it has grown). Of course people with Afro hair or very curly hair will also have a lot of shrinkage, so your hair won't appear to be that long.

Just showing you some pictures of my curl pattern again, as well as how long my hair is in its naturally curly state, versus how long it is when "stretched". 

Below are some picture of my wet hair.

These pictures are actually while I have my deep conditioner in, it looks pretty curly, but then again so do my dry curlies :) Trying to show you that my "side curls" look slightly different, I'd say slightly less tight compared to the ones at the top of my head.

  2. Your hair is growing pretty well. I don't think you need any tips you're doing a good job so far.

    When do you plan to do the "big chop"?

  3. Wow, I can't believe you are already 10 months into your transition. Your curls are so pretty - I can't wait to see what it looks like into another 10 months time!

    Great progress, well done!

  4. Congrats on getting to 10 months! (I failed to transition and went back to relaxing after 6)
    Your curls are absolutely gorgeous. I think you've got a lot of growth considering it's only been 10 months and it's so much more than the 7 month point
