6 Month Progress Pics!! Did I make APL?

Hello ladies! So my HHJ began on June 6th, 2009. I got my last relaxer and ends trimmed on June 22. So here I am 6 months later, after consistant healthy hair care and protective styling. I have you ladies to thank for all the progress I've made so far!

I'm transitioning to natural and haven't used heat at all these past 6 months. The first two photos are my starting pics (a couple weeks into my hhj) after my relaxer, flat iron and trim in June, and the rest of the pics are of my air dried hair that were taken today. In one my husband's pulling it some to show length since I didn't straighten. Thanks again ladies!!

Oh by the way, my first goal was APL by Dec 09...did I make it??

Very nice!!! I can't tell if you're APL or not because I'm on my phone so the pics are tiny but you hair is very beautiful. Great job!!
 
Congrats on your progress!!! You definately made it to APL!
 
Congrats on making it to APL! your hair looks extremely healthy! Keep it up and you'll be at BSL in no time. :-)
 
Great progress, and good job with the airdrying, it looks good.


Thanks Neek-a-Nator! Before this board I would usually flat iron weekly. But now I've found different ways to style my hair that don't require heat. I love air drying my hair now. :)

Thanks Stella B! I'm pushing on to bsl :) My ultimate goal is waist..but I've probably got a few years before I reach it.

Thanks Jazala!

And to think the reason I’ve been stuck at SL all these years wasn’t because my hair couldn’t grow it’s because I wasn’t retaining length due to not properly caring for my hair like I do now. This is the longest my hair has ever been other than I was briefly about APL right after having my first child. It broke off soon after from weekly blow drying, flat ironing, my hair constantly brushing against my clothes and never protective styling.
