Brazilian Keratin Hair Front View

[SuzMax]

Okay, for those of you who asked I'm finally brave enough to show a front view of my hair - for those of you who couldn't care less, I imagine you will ignore this thread. I was finally able to wash it today so I no longer smell like a corpse (the formaldehyde you know - actually DH said it smelled good and like perfume - being a cop for the last almost 20 years he said I have no idea what a corpse smells like and it wasn't me!).

This is also the beginning of week 2 of P90X for me - the 3rd time I've done it in probably as many years, so try not to be too distracted by my bulging biceps.

What a lovely picture - hair & bod!! I missed the original hair thread. What is it exactly you had done?

 

[nancy324]

I hear it makes damaged hair look and feel really soft and healthy. My SIL had it done and she looks great. You look great too! I'll bet your hair feels wonderful to the touch, right?

Love the hair and you look great too! Don't ya love P90X?? Thanks for sharing!!

 

[SuzMax]

Gosh you guys! Thank you for saying such nice things. You make me blush.

MAYNARDSMOM - You can read more about BKT here: http://www.braziliankeratinstraightening.com - I didn't have it done by Denise but by Marc, a wonderful guy she trained 4 years ago b/c she is just swamped with BKT and Japanese Thermal Reconditioning (something I may consider down the road - I wanted to be sure I liked the straight look before I made the permanent leap - plus my hair was pretty damaged and couldn't have taken TR).

elliemom - Thanks. I'm embarrassed to say I rarely do ab work. I just read 2 articles Sunday that said doing ab work actually makes them bigger and if you're doing all of your other work and cardio (I'm a huge cardio junkie adding in extra with P90X too) then you don't need the ab work. I LOVE that b/c I hate working abs!

fit44 - Thanks!

Nancy - My hair is soooo soft. As I'm sure you know with curly hair, I've never experienced that feeling and it's awesome. I keep telling DH, "Pet me." Yeah, he's used to me.

Missy - Thanks. Yeah, it did give me a little boost. I've always been self-conscious about my hair.

pugw - Thank you. I'd kill to be able to do a pullup right about now!!!

Debbie - Awww...shucks. Thanks. We're going to talk pullups in Hardcores today, k? I know we talked about them yesterday but now I'm fired up after last night!

Poochy - It FEELS so healthy and smooth. Amazing!

Jess Jugs - Thank you. And yes, I LOVE P90X and I LOVE Tony. He's got such a great attitude. I love all of his jokes even though I've heard them a million times.

Thanks Leanne and Sonya.

Suz, Your hair looks great! How has it been since you washed it? Did it go wavy at all?

 

[SuzMax]

Thanks Dallys. It just went a little bit wavy in a couple of spots like he said it would. It was fuller once I washed and dried it, so that was good b/c after 4 days of not washing it, it was getting pretty flat! If I want it sleeker I need to run the flat iron over it (or just sleep on it), but it literally takes seconds. And today it's raining and it got a bit of rain on it and it didn't frizz!!! Now that's a miracle.
