APL`13 Challenge

[pearlific1]

I dont know if the WHGO is a miracle product. I think it's probably just as good as JBCO. I think my hair is growing and thickening from good old fashioned TLC. Covering my hair everynight, making sure it's detangled and being gentle+ Nutrine garlic shampoo for my perpetual shedding.

I use both, not together, but either/or and I think they pretty much work the same. If your hair is on good shape and moisturized, the oils are just good items for your hair arsenal.

Just wanted to know if any of the 4 hair type ladies shop at ULTA and what products do they like from there? From what I could tell there weren't products there necessarily for natural hair textures but I saw a few products some ladies on the forum use.

JosieLynn I use Joico K-Pak products from Ulta. I wait until they do liter sales. 1L of the K-Pak Reconstructor Condish for $15.99!!!

It doesn't seem like it. If it weren't for the tape measure, I'd think it wasn't doing anything.

DominicanBrazilian82 msmarc1 is there a usual time these liter sales go on?

 

[msmarc1]

They usually have the liter sale around June or July and November if I remember correctly. I've been to one around black Friday sales.

Getting closer! Just did a clear rinse and shampooed with Wen Fig. Did a blow dry and flat iron.

This length check was actually done the first week in march before I put in my PS

I took another pic on 4-1

My measurements are way below the actual targets but I like be surpassed the target before I claim it.

From my last pic in march to now I'm happy that I almost gained 1 inch.

 

[JosieLynn]

Took my hair out of my braids to give them a rest so i washed, two strand twists to dry. Put them in a ponytail to dry and stretch and then unbraided it to put it in a bun and wrapped braid hair around it. Length check, to come soon. Currently busy with my friend's wedding and bridal shower feeling like a chicken with my head cut off

Coming out of lurkdom....

Ok I believe today is length check day but I could be wrong

Anyhoo here is my length check update
The quality is not the best and my bra was all twisted up lol(hate that)
I still have a way to go and just for fun I added my beginning of HHJ pics (oct 2011-march 2013) just to remind my self that I may not be where I wanna be but thank God I'm not where I used to be.

Can't wait to see all the ladies lovely heads of hair

Hello lovelies, I am officially dropping out of this class. It was already a long shot, but I've recently cut 2 inches off my hair and now it's even shorter than when I began. I wish u all luck and will be cheering you on from the sidelines!

miraclediva don't go! I had to chop 2 to 3 inches some weeks ago that put me back to neck length. I'm not dropping out though. Even if I don't get to my goal this year but the motivation and tips I'll get in here will be helpful. There's still 8 months to go!

My length check was done last Friday.
Left pic is after haircut on January 26 and right pic is march 23

I need 6 inches to get to APL so I don't believe I'll make it this year but if I can get 4" I'll take it!

 

[OceanEyes]

Definitely longer yet kinda' dry as I've been slacking on cw Due for a DC tonight

 

[MsSonya]

I agree miraclediva "dont go" we could always support each other.
Beautyu2u- looks like you are pretty darn close. If not already there.

 

[yuhlovevybz]

I'm just putting my scissors down, hiding my flat iron and lurking. I notice a bit of progress but I really don't wanna cross my fingers 'cause I don't remember the last time my hair's been longer than SL. If I every reach APL...you guys'll be the first to know. otherwise I stocked up on suave and I'm back on my cowashing kick....the only thing that works for me so I need to stop playing games and stick to what I know.

Hey ladies!!

Here's my length check..... As my hair grows its getting harder to get my hair as straight as I would like... I'm thinking I need to upgrade my straightening tools (PJ alert!! )...Any hoooo..... I posted two pics...

First pic is length check before trimming..... I have not trimmed my hair since I started just a little dusting so after seeing that pic I decided to let hubby do my trim (I know I know, I don't know why I did either.... ) The second pic is after the trim... Still see much growth since my avatar pic so I am happy... Keep up the good work ladies looks like a lot of you will be APL before end of Summer!!!

 

[alanaturelle]

My hair didn't really progress from December to now. The first pic is from December and the second was taken a couple of weeks ago. I lightly blew dried and noticed that it didn't grew much. I'm honestly disappointed that my hair didn't even get an inch despite being consistent with my regimen. My next length check won't be till late July which will be 2 years post BC and I hope to be APL by then.
