As of today, I am past APL and grazing BSL (bra-strap length). My hair is relatively healthy. I am relaxed and have un-colored hair. I have not had a cut, although I did dust my ends last year. I do plan on doing a cut around the summer time.
I usually wear protective styles. I use a mild relaxer. I do want to gradually go back to blonde, but not as light as before. I'll likely do some ash blonde highlights later in the year.
So here is the plan:
- No direct heat
- Wear protective styles 95% of the time
- Co-wash 2x/week
- Keep hair/scalp clean and moisturized
- Eat healthy/exercise
