12 inches in 12 months Challenge Update Month 1

[SweetNic_JA]

Looks like you ladies are definitely making progress. I can't wait to see how well you're doing. I want to add that I'm unofficially in the challenge, just watching from the sideline if you know what I mean.

I am somwhat on track I guess- I have gained 0.5-1.5 inches since I put braids in at the very end of November.

I still need to do more though- I haven't upped my protein yet, I'm still tweaking my vitamin regimen, and I will be geting back into exercise soon. Oh yes, and I need to remember my scalp massages!

I am definitely taking it one step at a time...I want 4 more inches by May!!!

And I do believe that conceive it/achieve it thing...even if I don't make 12, I think I will still be pleasantly surprised...(hopefully)...

I want to join this challenge but I'm afraid I'll fail miserablely. Last year I gained about 7-8", (2-3 of which were hacked off by my stylist without my permission). This after the trims that I gave permission for. Keeping that in mind, I doubt that I can grow an inch a month for 12 months. I got an inch last month and in October but most of the time, it's 1/2-3/4 per month.

I'll keep up with the challange progress anyway.

I have gained at least .5 inches. I have to start taking my vitamins like I'm supposed to. I also need to start exercising more often and not stress so much. I should get and inch of growth soon.

Count me in your 12 month challenge!!! I am trying to hold out on my next gentle tx relaxer. It is killing me! My hair is getting PRETTY nappy in the crown area. Last perm was Jan 17th. Maybe I'll get extra inches. K!

You definitely have my attention. Where do you locate the surge product? Congatulations on the 3 inches.
