Just wanted to show that ur hair can make good progess wit multiple trims as long as you find the right stylist who is willing to listen. I do my own dustings but If I want an inch or more taken off i go to her.

Your hair looks beautiful. My male stylist told me long ago to trim every other touch up if your growing your hair out. I should have stuck with his advice.

Here are a few comparisons! I have a few more in my fotki from midpoints, but these are the ones as close to year end (this month) vs when I first big chopped!

BACK LENGTH A FEW DAYS AFTER BC AND MOST RECENT:

It's growing! :D 4 month's difference. :)

PUFF COMPARISON!

My TWA when I first BC has grown to a teenage stage!! I can't wait for BAA status.

NAKED HAIR, NO PRODUCT COMPARISON:

When I first BC I had NO curl definition and so many scraggly straight ends! I see I will have to let it grow out a LOT to get any hang time in but that's fine. :)

Your pictures are WONDERFUL LADIES. I can't WAIT to see what next year brings!!
 
In October 2008, i lost about half of my hair(down to the scalp) from a relaxer(i was relaxing out of frustration)!

^^The spots where i lost my hair, i was basically bald in certain spots.

Hi ladies here's my update. I am about 1/2 inch short of my goal of APL based on when the last picture was taken in early Dec. I am sure if I took down my install and measured today I would be APL at my longest layer-- but I will wait to claim it after the New Year!

1st Pic- late Dec/ Early Jan 09 Starting Point
2nd & 3rd- August/Sept Check-in (blow-dried and texture shot)
4th- Early Dec. check-in

I am in love with this thread... All things are possible.

I think that it also might be helpful for you ladies to maybe post what things you did in 2009... challenges, conditioning, vitamins, etc to attribute to your length

:lick: lovin it!
 
Everyone here has such wonderful progress!!!! Thanks so much for the updates and inspiration! My Dec update is in my siggy.
