Hip Length Challenge 2010

[LoveLongLocks]

Thanks sometimes it's hard to see your own progress if it's not jaw-droppingly noticeable, but it feels fuller and thicker and even with shrinkage I noticed a little bit of length gain, I won't really know how much until I straighten.

Congrats on your progress Lucia! You have such super thick hair....just beautiful.

Has anyone heard from LadyPaniola?

Congrats on your progress, looks great!

Thank you. I know that it's growing, I can really see it in my ponytails & braids. For the Dec check in, I will do both a wet & straightened picture. I love looking at the straightened length check ins . If I wasn't so busy & it wasn't so humid, I would do one too!

Has anyone heard from LadyPaniola?

I haven't. I was going to PM her because she sounded down the last few times she posted. I hope it's not post-partum depression

 

[Whimsy]

^oh no I hope she's ok.

 

[NJoy]

Not to mention she's probably just exhausted with the newborn and her own body trying to readjust. I think it may take a bit for her to get back on track online.

 

[Mz.MoMo5235]

i agree... hope she's doing well

 

[Toy]

I hope she is doing well them little newborns are alot of work.

 

[MariposaSexyGirl]

Ya'll she is fine(I think), I saw her in off topic this morning lol. Maybe she is taking a break from the hair side of things. Nothing wrong with that.

MariposaSexyGirl, great pictures! Beautiful hair!

Was that meant for Ivey ? Because I quoted her pics lol. If you meant her hair then I will gladly accept and pretend it's mine

I just straightened my hair pin straight and for the first time in a long time, my hair feels long . It's like I am suddenly in hair nirvana. I can't believe it. I feel at peace with my hair. I must be experiencing my summer growth spurt because my hair looks to have grown since my last pic updates in this thread. It's so strange. My hair official is at the bottom of my tat ( well when it's pin straight). I'm pretty excited about it. I never new my hair could grow this long. I can kinda see why some of you ladies want to grow longer. All because you can lol. Anybody else feel like this or is it just me ? Anyone else feeling hair nirvana?

I know I know! I just put my oldest two to bed and I'm working on the third(she will be 7 months old on the 14th) so give me a minute lol. I most likely will post them tomorrow morning since it's like 50-11 things I got to do tonight. Laundry being one of them. I swear I hate folding clothes!

 

[MariposaSexyGirl]

It took me awhile to straighten my hair today. For many hours I was walking around with one side pin straight pulled in a pony and the other side still in ponytail holders from doing a ponytail rollerset lol. There was no way I was walking to my mailbox like this lol. Eventually I got the other side done.

 

[~*~ShopAholic~*~]

I updated my avatar pic and added a siggy pic. I'll take some more recent pics this wknd.

I'm going to a conference August 1st in Florida and I was thinking of getting my hair done at a salon before heading out. I started to explain this to my daughter and then I stopped myself... hold up.. I want to STRAIGHTEN my hair before heading to FLORIDA in AUGUST, which is the hottest month of the summer. She laughed and said "curly ponytail huh?" Yep! I guess I'll pocket that money LOL

No....JULY is the hottest month.....things start to die down in August...

Either way the humidity will zap your hair jus like it did you in LA...

Here yall go:

Gonna make it my siggy pic. It needs to grow a little more so that it passes the top of my jeans a little so it will be undeniably hip length though . But you see how my ends need to thicken up. I'm sure my postpartum shedding took most of the thickness that I did have. But it is okay lol. But any ways this what it looks like pin straight. Well the scalp hair look voluminous but it still pretty straight.

MariposaSexyGirl, beautiful hair. Your hair is noticably longer than in your old siggy pic. Your ends look fine to me. Hair tends to naturally taper on the ends as it grows extremely long. Dusting the ends every few months can help make the ends thicker. Congrats, you're hip length!

Thank you! But I don't think I will feel comfy claiming full out hip length until it's a bit thicker and maybe a bit longer . I will start dusting maybe at the end of this month or next month.

Oh wait I did say I was gonna wait and trim in sept I don't know I will see.
