Thanks, the growth is insane and it worries me a bit. Like, it seems a bit abnormal and maybe something's wrong?? Or maybe not, I'm not sure. Almost makes me feel like I should stop taking my supplements once I reach my desired length. I honestly don't want it to get TOO long..like past tailbone! Too much for me
)....this coming Thursday!!!

Ahhm, not sure about that. If you're allergic, then I wouldn't take any chances? I would think you need to do more research about that. I'm not a doc or anything so I say use with caution?erplexed
UPDATE: Here is what I found from the following site: http://www.healthy-oil-planet.com/allergy-fish-oil.html
"What about Allergies to Fish Oils?
If you're allergic to fish, you might have an allergy to fish oil. This will depend on how your
fish oil was processed. High quality, pharmaceutical-grade fish oils are generally free of
allergy-causing proteins due to their highly specialized processing. You can also use
alternate sources of omega 3's found in foods, such as flaxseed oil."
(Fish Oil Challenge), not just for growth, but overall health 
. I started Friday, Sept 25th right after Ivey's post and am documenting my growth on the days like she did. Sooooooooooooo we'll see.
I can't see the pics
Fotki does that sometimes, it changes the hot link. You have to click 'share this photo' then 'hotlink this image' and copy the 'direct link to the photo' so you get a permanent link.
Unless everyone else can see the pic, in which case it is just me and you can ignore everything I just said
Carlson's - The very finest fish oils has anchovies and sardies (i.e. small fish) the rationale behind this is that because they are small fish they are lower down in the food chain and therefore less likely to accumulate heavy metals i.e. Mercury found in larger fish (hence why I alternate this one with the cod liver oil which can have this problem).
The Cod liver oil IMHO is prob one of the best sources of fish oil (although has lesser values of EPA/ DHA) and is more susceptible to heavy metals. However Look for Arctic, Nordic and Icelandic producers and you should be ok. Cod Liver Oil also has naturally occuring Vits A, D & E and ALA which are not found in other fish oils. This is prob why it kept me sooooooo darn healthy as a child in Africa. I kid you not I never had to go to the doctor. Its only recently that I have been revisiting the wisdom of my Granny and the way she used to look after me.
Medical professionals always agree that this is prob the single most impt supp.
HTH's
But fortunately I grew up and can now swallow pills!! 
So, on Sept. 1st, I did a length check, and I thought, cool, it's growing. Then, Sept. 11th (flat-iron day), I took another pic. I was like, wow, ok then...THEN, just moments ago today, I took yet another pic. I was like, WHOA! My hair seems to be growing pretty fast!! I always wondered how my hair seemed to retain length even after getting a trim every month...
It was only recently, that I decided not to trim my hair (only S&D) for the past two months to see my natural growth progress. I initially planned on checking every first of the month thereafter, but you know how it is when you're trying to reach a goal (OCD
Sept. 1 (And yes, I wear my bra too low, only this particular bra though)
Sept. 11
Sept. 25
WOOOW, I'm so sorry guys. I'm a dumba**.
Someone previously expressed that my pics didn't appear consistent as far as how the comparison was made. I deleted the September album that had the pics, to create another one for the month of October to try again. And I TOTALLY forgot that I had them linked for this thread. I get confused because I use photobucket too....I'll try to search for the pics and post it again. Or you can just wait until the end of October to see the new and "better compared" pics?
