On my way to BSL!
 
Here's my progress for the year. The pics are from the following dates: 12/09, 9/09, 6/09, 2/09 and 12/08. I was hoping to graze WSL by the end of this year, but I'm happy with my progress just the same. Here goes to 2010.

2009 was a pretty good year. I guess it's safe for me to claim APL?? As you can see I've gained inches and weight...lol

Here are my year end photos. I will have more in my fotki later but I made my first goal of Waist Length next on to Tail Bone Length. :yep:

I texlaxed my hair on December 24, 2009. I used Silk Elements Mild because I ran out of my Mizani Butter Blends. The relaxer was ok. I was more under processed than I usually am but its ok since I texlax. However, I prefer Mizani over Silk Elements. Silk Elements burned me in a couple places. My hair is probably 90% dry in these pics. I planned on flat ironing my hair but did not get around to it. I am going to do it soon because I am curious of the length when straight.

What great pics! You guys are really inspirational! Here are mine. Not much growth over all due to various trims and slow growing but I'm getting there. My goal was to reach BSL by 12/09. Technically some hairs did reach but I'm not claiming until there can be no doubt. My new goal for the new yr is to be full BSL by June 10 and at least 2 inches beyond by Dec 10!
This pic was done right after my Dec 08 touch up.

Here is the latest taken after my Dec 09 touch up.

Great Progress Ladies!!!! Here are my pics starting in April when I BC. I don't plan to flat iron again until February so until then I stretched one of my twists. I cant believe I'm just a little past APL.

OMG, I just uploaded some pics, and the difference between my flexirod sets is crazy. It doesn't feel like it grew that much, but I guess it did. :look::drunk:
