Since the scalp itching post above, I've been tying my braids back with a satin scarf around the edges instead of using my bonnet. my scalp is not itching anymore. i felt like i needed more air flow and it seems to have solved the problem.
 
Hi Ladies, still here. Been busy, DH bought us a bigger house so been decorating that and neglecting my hair. It's not in a good state at all, my 5 month old DS keeps pulling out clumps of it, I have dandruff from a relaxer burn, still nursing my edges with castor oil. Will get back on track soon though. Congrats to @HPG and @Prettymetty and other ladies on your hair growth!
 
Wash day tonight. I feel like trying out some proper protein, especially on my vulnerable areas (it'll be the first time in ages. And I have a new gel to test out:biggrin:
 
I washed my hair yesterday and I swear my arms still hurt...I'm not sure if I am closer to APL or SL but at least my hair is much longer than it was this time last year...

Got my hair "trimmed" today looks like i'm just grazing APL now. I'm ok with that I plan on getting my hair braided tonight in a beehive i'll leave the braids in for 2-3 weeks at a time and just wear my wig.
 
I don't know if my scalp is dry, dirty, or I have dandruff. I don't like having to shampoo my hair once a week.
I don't work out, sweat, or use a lot of products so I don't know what's going on but my hair has been like this for years.
 
I'm going to keep these braids in until the end of May, but then I want to wear a curly wig from... that one place with the long shipping.... forgot it. anyway. If it's not in, then I will just wear it in a bun for a week

My ends feel bushy and tangly again. I'm not happy. So tonight I'm going to moisturize small sections with bekura silk and honey latte and put it in a few big bantu knots to keep the hair stretched and give it a little body. Probably do a scalp massage with green magic as well
