The Transition is complete!!!
My hair has come so far: In this picture I had a little more than an inch of "natural" hair here. The rest was relaxed.

It's funny, I thought my hair was so 'nappy'...I was so frustrated most days and didn't know how to deal with my relaxed hair with all the course, new growth that was growing above it...it was totally a re-education for me...What a journey. I'm glad that I transitioned instead of doing the BC so early. This transition was best for ME--I may have given in and relaxed my hair all over again if I didn't go through the process of watching my hair transition from straight to coily. My transition has definitely helped me become more patient!
Now one year later, the ratio of relaxed to natural hair has reversed! Check it out:

So, what's next? I am finally ready to let go of what remains of my relaxed hair--ends. I have cut my hair three times during my transition: 2 inches, 2-3 inches, and 2 inches. I have a bout 1-2 inches left to cut. I will definitely post pics and blog about my BC.
This has been quite a year for me! I look forward to what lies ahead for me, and my hair! "BESOS"
