Here I grow again!
Tomorrow's the big day. Grabbing a front row seat and waiting for the show. So far, so good. 
Ok here goes.
First pic.
End of Dec. 09
Second and third pics. from today. For further updates,setback, and trims, see my album.
Nice progress, Flow.
You definitely got length AND thickness. Are you using henna to thicken your strands? And if so, are you using indigo too?I like how @SmilingElephant comes in like "who paged me?" "what did I do?"
I've been keeping up with updates on my phone. My internet connection has been acting real strange tonight.
NikkiQ, how were you able to get such good shots of your ng? I'm not good at deciphering ng pics but, it does look like a lot. I tried to take pics and I couldn't get the detail like you did. Did you have someone else taking those?

I started using sulfur on July 12th to get me to BSL by Dec 30, 2010 Here are my results so far........
I started off at the 4 on my shirt and now I am at the 7. I only straightened one part of my hair because I am trying to stay away from heat until the end of the year. I hope I can keep going through the next 3 months. Although it's not easy at times, I do feel like sulfur is helping to grow my hair quickly. I also need a trim really badly, but that will have to wait til December as well.

Congratulations!!! You have made wonderful progress in a short amount of time. I think I'm gonna wait till Dec. to trim as well.

I don't like how you have to go back uncheck each post after multiquoting. Or else it will do it every post thereafter. Anyway NJoy Thanks, sometimes I feel like I see progress, other times it looks the same. I do have to keep in mind all the trimming I did this year. Now that I have my ends under control I'm gonna hold off for a while.

LOL flowinlocks I love that you tagged everyone! I just joined yesterday! My current update is that I got the Sulu oil in the new scent...and guess what it smells like?! Dirty grill + kiwi pear. I'm convinced it's impossible to mask the original scent. For those of you who said it smelled like bacon, SHAME ON YOU. Bacon smells good! This smells like old dirty grill racks. But - I'll still use it. I really want my hair to grow. lol!

You should have seen the look on my face the first time I smelled MTG. 
My dd always pops in my room and says "are you using that burnt tire stuff again?"

My justification is that it HAS to work. Otherwise they would have changed the ingreds to make it smell better. At least now I know what it feels like to live in a grill.

Oh it does work
just be sure to kick up the moisture and keep it off the length of your hair the best you can.

I will say - the Sulu applicator bottle is GREAT for this - I placed droplets directly on my scalp rather than yesterday when I used original MTG out of the bottle and placed it on my hands and the length of my hair. Thankfully, I cowash daily so I can wash that mess out, lol!

Oh no! Never place MTG on the length. It will dry it out something horribly.

Good to know, thank you! My hair was not dry per se, but definitely greasy without the softness I get from "better" oils....definitely crap for hair health, good for growth?

Hi, I guess I have been summoned to the principles office (tagged), huh?
I aint gon lie, I feel off for the summer cuz I had been dedicating my free time to working out and figured all the blood circulation would help my hair grow.
Since the season has changed a bit, I will get back into the game maybe 3 times per week.

WTF? New scent? I just bought some and I didn't see any scent options on their website. And yes its smells pretty darned bad. Where did you get a scented version from? I'm on their website and don't see anything about it.

laidback There is another thread on it (I think called "MTG New Scent"?)...it's not on the site yet but they were introducing it on Facebook - there was a code to get it for free. And I will say that while it still smells bad, I used it last night on my hair and the kiwi pear scent was lingering more than the dirty grill scent...so I guess that's good!!!

Thanks. Dang I wish I had known about this two weeks ago. LoL! I just checked out that facebook page. I see it now. At least the company is responding to the consumer.

I don't know that I ever posted a starting pic (I can't get the search thing to work for me right now). But I've had several set backs this year. So this is my latest picture. I took this earlier this month after a relaxer and a cut. I had severe breakage and unevenness in the back. I guess this will also be my startgin pic if there is a 'part 2' to this challenge.

Sorry to hear about your setbacks.
I hope you were able to figure out what the problem was. I had a few issues of my own with my ends. So with the trims I did this year I feel like I'm almost in the same spot as when I started. I only plan on continuing the challenge till the end of the year, but this pic. will def. serve as a good comparison for you when we do our final reveals.

Well, here's my contribution as promised. I'm happy with the growth, although I don't know if you can notice it here.
I've been off the mix for a few weeks now due to scalp soreness.
June 2010::start picture:
Sept. shots here:
Here on Sept. 9:: I felt so silly here because I 'm not even up to the first line yet.
Please excuse the mess...as we just moved.
More sharing:
Not a full bun, but a girl can dream until it's real...right?
And this is how I wear my hair most of the time.

flowinlocks,
I read your post from the other day, and I know how you feel. Just a few days ago it took me a little over 2 hours to detangle. I kept getting snapping ...not good. I could not figure out what went wrong, so I changed my shower filter earlier than usual.
I just checked out a new book on curly hair,and so far it sounds good.
Btw, thank you for the advice on protecting my ends.

I actually just copied the list of challengers. but I skipped over the peeps who post often. That's why I left you of the list. I didn't forget about you.
I knew you would pop in.
