6-week BKT comparison--You input requested...

[lilikoi]

Did my second Global Keratin Juvexin BKT two days ago. I haven't washed yet because I'm enjoying my nicely flatironed hair!

The reason I'm posting before the wash (when one actually gets to see the real results) is that I need some objective assessment of the length of my hair. As I flat ironed the nape area I felt my hair brush my shoulder a little (gasp!). Is this real growth since last month, or am I imagining things? And, btw, what length is this?




P.S. For those checking out my avatar pict: That was my first BKT, on 8-weeks post relaxed hair, November 2009. I am currently 100% relaxer-free.

It does feel thicker but, it's hard me to be sure about the length. Thanks for your input!

Your hair looks a little longer and thicker.

It looks thicker to me.

I think it's bottom of neck length, not quite shoulder. The 2nd pic def looks a little longer.

Thanks for the clarification. I wouldn't feel comfortable calling this "shoulder length" given that my hair's growing in many layers and the bulk (top and front) just hit around my chin. "Bottom of neck" sounds like an apt description for my not-so-dear mullet

To be honest, it's hard to tell because of the two different angles. But, it does look thicker. This is neck length. In my opinion, shoulder length is when the bulk of the hair is resting on one's shoulders. But, you can claim it whenever you feel comfortable.

Healthy looking neck length. Great progress!

I would say that you are full Neck Length and I can definitely tell that your hair has gotten thicker...and I can see a little more length as well. Keep growing!!!

 

[Lady_q_tee]

Definatley thicker!! ... a little longer to. Your ends are looking good.

 

[disgtgyal]

I would say neck length and your hair looks healthier and a bit thicker

 

[Ijanei]

I agree, NL and it has grown a little and also a little thicker.

I appreciate all the input and encouraging replies. I'm so excited to have confirmation that my hair is, indeed, growing. I'll concentrate my efforts on not messing things up.

My new focus is RETENTION.

Thanks all!
