Welcome, let's talk about hair, baby!

Hi, I'm Sherl. Thanks so much for stopping by! It's the first day of                2011 and Iam so excited about launching this new blog.  I look forward to      great conversation, sharing ideas and growing lots of healthy, long hair. And, if that is your goal, I wish the same to you, too.

After trying so many chemicals in my hair, I have gotten so tired of the breakage and damage that I decided to go natural. It's been about six years now since I've had a perm. I've had some detours along the way, but I am back on track. Although my hair is growing now, it is doing so slowly. 

During the last six years of growing natural hair,  I had been washing my hair and braiding it and wearing either a weave, wig or braids. It had been coming in fairly well, But, for beauty reasons- for lack of a better word-I got off track and started wearing half-weaves with the comb inside.  That was  in 2009.  Well, I noticed that my front started to break.  So my hair is uneven now. I stopped as soon as I realized what was going on. (Ugh, back to the drawing board).  I've never had a problem growing hair, but with age, hormones and various meds along the way, things have changed.  Now, more perserverance is required. So, my goal for 2011 is to grow a healthy, even length head of hair this year, using natural products.

In about July, 2010, I started taking some Collagen and Vitamin C  (from Costco) which gave good info about the need for supplement taking to grow healthy hair and nails. I can truly say, after several months that I see a difference in both.  I am going to be posting photos of my journey,  Again feel free to leave comments, suggestions, or just plain old chat.

Oh, btw, that's me in the photo.  As I said, I will be taking photos of my hair journey as time goes on.
