:eek:

I am pretty pumped that I can make my hair look this good just by french braiding it wet!! :cheese: I was excited so I wanted to show you all. :) I know my length (or lack there of) makes it not-so-impressive, but it's making me imagine the possibilities!

Excuse my total noob-ness at taking pictures of the back of my head! :p

Thank you all so much! I pretty much stopped using heat on my hair a few months ago, but it always looked really boring. I'm just so excited...I never thought I would ever be able to think of my hair as "beautiful", but thanks to LHC I think I can! <3

I love braid waves! I do them every night now because otherwise... blah! Your colour is stunning, too... how did you get that intense colour with henna/what was your natural colour?

Eeeeee thanks everyone! :D

Well, to be fair I think that the flash made it look a lot more intense. :p

But as for the answers to your questions, I have a picture in my album that shoes my natural color, but before I did henna my hair had previously been chemically dyed. I am lazy, so you can see a couple pictures of my journey in my henna thread post (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/showpost.php?p=1898962&postcount=2619). As you can see, I am only 2 BAQ hennas in so far. I think your color is quite lovely, too!

I love how henna does that, when the light hits it it turns so crazy intense red! It's the perfect hairdye for highlights! :D
I looked in your albums and you and I had the exact same hair colour/style in childhood, it's neat! Mine got a little darker as I got older though. And thank you so much!! I find mine turns a different colour in every picture, lol.
Your results are just.... wow! I am impressed!

Oh, that's very lovely! Great job on your first braid waves. I can never get mine to look quite so flowy for some reason.
Also, your hair colour, it's so fiery and rich (*O*) Henna or not, that's some lovely stuff there.

Thanks for the wonderful comments everyone! :) And for those who can't see it, I was just in your shoes the other day....you'll be able to see them in no time!

Henna is great but I really hope my roots and length even out....
