2010 Sulfur Challenge

Here I grow again!
Chickened out on the touch up. I read a thread about pH levels of relaxer that scared the crappenstein outta me. So, I started watching youtube vids for stretching (which I vowed I wouldn't do 
). And since I literally have done nothing to my hair for the past couple days, I went ahead and DC during the BET Awards and cowashed afterwards. Drying on cool setting now. May flat iron or just stretch a section of hair for my check in. I'm so confused about how to proceed with my hair.
It's crazy because I was so reckless with my hair prior to LHCF and it survived. Now every little thing spooks me. I don't want to lose my progress to crazy breakage.
In that thread, it said something about overlapping causes hair to "disintegrate". What the?! I should've been bald a long time ago.
Ah well, now to find the right relaxer with the right pH level and stretch to avoid overlapping. 
What the? Who's idea was it to start doing my own hair again? I'm a nervous wreck. Ah well, back to blowdrying on low setting.

Will do! Your siggy pic is looking good, btw, Missy!
So, I dried and lightly flat ironed a section of my hair for my length check in. It looks a little oily because I used IC Heat Protectant. Um...yeah. Anywho, looks like we started this challenge in Feb so...
Hmm... my back looks hideous in this close up pic but, I'm trying to show that the unpulled hair is at the bottom of my bra. Decent growth compared to last month below. I used msm regularly but the homemade mix off and on last month. Otherwise, I used it regularly. So, that's my check in for now.

Happy Belated Birthday NJoy. Hope you enjoyed it to the max.
Hey Ltown. I didn't knoa it was your birthday honey. Well I had to come in here quick to wish A Massive Happy Birthday wish. I love you girl and wish you many many more.
Thank you ladies, sorry for the late reply but I went to Hampton, VA for the Jazz festival. It was great I got to see Keith Sweat, Gladys Knight, Frankie Beverly and Maze, Kirk Whalum, Gerald Albright, Sheila E. I'm exhausted but well spend.

Sounds like you had a blast.

After mini setback with ends and 2 trims, latest one in April.
Today, well at least I gained back what I cut off so I can't complain.

Okay I'm not officially a part of this challenge but b/c I just started using BT, I've been lurking on this thread. I have some questions for BT users. Did anyone experience that creepy crawly feeling in their scalp that's supposed to be a sign of growth? I swear every few days I feel like bugs are crawling on my scalp. I know it's not dirt b/c I wash/DC on the weekend & co-wash/DC mid week. Also, is it my imagination or does it seem like I'm seeing results in 2 weeks. I had some leftover thin edges from post-partum shedding & since applying the BT, I can barely tell that they even existed. Maybe it's my imagination but I just wanted to hear from other BT users. TIA...

I like your v-line look.

By all means!
There are even threads on the subject. The naysayers will say it's an allergic reaction or dry scalp, but I beg to differ. Every time I get a growth spurt I get the crawleys. More so while using growth aids.The challenge is entering it's second phase if you would like to join.

I would love to join the challenge. I'm enjoying it thus far. The runoff onto my new growth is making it really soft combined with the S-Curl. Thanks for the invite.
