2010 Sulfur Challenge

Decided to alternate Miss Claudie's Scalp Elixir with Sulu Max Grow (SMG). The smell of her stuff completely covers the funky smell of the SMG.
 
ladies, i have to confess.......

i have been incredibly lazy lately and simply do not seem to want to do anything to or for my hair.

i will try to get back on the wagon soon.......
 
thanks girl! y'all mind if i update at the end of the year? that way, i wouldn't create any conflict with my hyh challenge.

i am getting back into my routine, though.....thank goodness!
 
I'll be taking my NG pics on either Monday or Tuesday and I can't wait!!! I took a sneak peek on Wednesday when I took my braids out and even though it wasn't that great of a shot, I could see a difference :yep:
 
Yeah, I may not do a formal length check, not only because of HYH, but because as we go into this final stretch, I want to put the pedal to the metal and am going to continue to stay away from the heat. I did do an informal stretched length check on the 12th. I may use that pic. We'll see. I slacked up over the summer but, in this final stretch of the year, I plan to get back on the bandwagon (as grow put it).

Also, I've decided not to perm next week (which would have made it ideal for the length check). I've really learned how to deal with my ng/texlaxed hair and plan to try to stretch another month, at least. I'm very excited with my progress and look forward to seeing everyone else's too.

That's not a problem. However depending on which style you are wearing if you want to check your progress, I say do a straighten a small section at the back. that's what I use to do. If not we'll see you at the end of the year.

Congrats! I can't wait to see it either. :)

It's funny you are saying that, next weekend is my date to relax also. But I'm holding out for a few more weeks. :) If you want to just do a small section for comparison that would work also. :yep:
 
I'm about to straighten out my hair for the update pics. I most likely won't be on the sulfur for a few weeks because I plan on relaxing after the reveal.
 
Lol!! Girl No! After what I went through.... I was to tired too even thing about taking a picture. I plan on taking some later on today. :yep:
 
i hope you are ok, Flow!

i put my sulfur mix on last night! felt good to be in my swing of things!

although i must admit, i refuse to beat myself up if i miss a day or two.

from no on through the end of the year, i want to just enjoy my journey and not stress over what i feel "i've gotta do". i'm gonna take it easy alot more and do it because i want to when i want to and be ok with it if i don't. it's not like my hair will fall off my head if i miss a day, anyway, so why stress?
 
I'm back in my braids now to wear under my wigs so my sulfur will be SO much easier to apply now :yep:

I took a few NG shots last week when I took my braids out. I will try to post them soon.
 
my NG pics ladies! sorry they're kinda crappy.

I'm ok I just had a 3 hour detangling nightmare yesterday. :(
 
I don't estimate from pics. the only pics I have using a ruler are from when I had my braids in and I measured how high I could lift them due to the NG.
 
No I'm saying going off of other people's estimates. You put a sad face like you were disappointed to only have an inch at 5 months post. But YOU know how much growth you have. We can't see.
 
I didn't really get sad from her estimate. It was just a face. Sorry it gave off that impression. Taking pics these days is VERY hard b/c even though I have long monkey arms, I can't contort that well to get pics of the back of my head while holding a ruler :lachen: I'll have to get the SO to take some for me at the end of the year when I finally flat iron. LORD these 3 months feel like eternity!!!!! :wallbash:
 
I agree. New growth is really hard to measure!

Anywho, here are my starting pics:
