Still can't wait to relax and dust though and take a pic of the differences from month to month
I should have joined this challenge last year. I trimmed my ends yesterday .5''. Since going back to a relaxer November 2013 I have cut a total of 6'' or more. I never trimmed my hair when I as natural for 3 years.
Lilmama1011 I find that I lose a lot more hair when I do curly styles. I think the solution is; once i'm over that style to hit the shower and let the water detangle and kill those curls. Manipulating my hair while curly is a no go and you know what I like those styles.
My hair being straight. I have no issues with straight hair but I REFUSE to flat iron or blowdry every week just to have straight hair. I absolutely refuse.
I'm feeling a little iffy about my ends. I think I experienced more growth this month and if so it's from inversion finally and I don't know if that makes my ends look thinner or is it actually thinner from the acv rinse that tangled and matted my hair. I hope it is the first one. I was so close to dusting a bit off but I have two more weeks I can wait for when I relax. I was combing it with conditioner on so it will weigh my new growth down and I was about to snip and I said "no, suppose it looks better after a relaxer"
How do I keep these darn ssk away. Its like they've taken residence on my strands, no amount of SND is helping.
Yes wait to relax and see. It may make a difference in the way your hair falls so no rash decisions just yet.

I'd like to join this challenge for at least the next 3 months, until the end of November. I've done several trims/cuts over the spring summer since I BC'd, then removed leftover straight ends, then kept trimming to even it up. My SO is also sick of my trims and there's really no reason for me to do random trim anymore. At the end of the 3 months I hope to do a dusting then try again for 3 more months.
I'm 2 days post right now. In July I was really bad and trimmed like twice a week because I kept finding straight ends. I feel pretty good about waiting 3 months cuz I'm looking forward to the results.
Welcome! Thanks for joining us. You will do great on your no trimming adventure. Yes listen to your SO and stay away from the scissors lol.
I just trimmed again this week. I felt I had to. This is the 2nd in less than 6 mths for sure. My ends looked like HELL between the humidity and how in poor shape they were. I MUST remember to keep rollersetting because I can avoid heat on my ends. I have to also remember to keep my ends happy with moisture.
I need to join this. I trim/cut EVERY time I flat iron. It's ridiculous. Look what I did to my hair this last year!
I'm not cutting my hair again until February 2015. I need six months with no scissors. I didn't even realize how much I had cut off. Mmmnph!
You look like Faith Evans Pretty!

@Nazaneen thanks. I was getting the faith Evans thing a lot in new Jersey. And her daughter use to be around my way and we are similar shades and they would ask if I was her daughter
You should go blonde!
I'm assuming you mean honey blonde, Maybe when my hair gets longer, Also can you dye over henna @Nazaneen
Faith Evans blonde! I think she had a pale blonde right? That's too much.
I don't think you can dye over henna actually...
