So im def gonna get my braids done friday (of course ill post pics) so thurs im gonna do a HOT for 30min using my HC then wash with SM coconut hibiscus poo, aphogee 2min for about 5-10 mins rinse add Giovanni SAS 45min with HC then plait and let dry overnight. The morning of I plan to use Keracare blowdrying lotion to BD the wait for my braider

SimJam what worked in your reggie to help with the breakage? is it the new vitamins?
 
I'm ashamed to even post in here, i've been so lazyyyyyyyy! I washed on Sunday with no-sulfate shampoo and i haven't done a thing to my hair since! Terrible i know, i should be beaten. But its still in plaits, i keep saying i'm going to DC, baggy, moisturize, something, but all i feel like doing is sleeping. I'll get around to it eventually, i have to cause these plaits need to come down now.

Dcing overnight. I have to figure out how to do a true length check without heat or help. Maybe I need to start doing yoga so I can reach.
 
My hair is about half an inch away from APL in the front, and about 2 inches away in the back. Such a difference! I started going to the gym again, so maybe that will encourage some faster growth.

I'm in love with my new low maintenance updo habit. Its been over a month and I now feel odd if its not up. Takes me about 5 minutes every morning to pick a hair accessory and style. I can tell that I'm retaining more length this way.

I changed up my products and regimen

1. Started back using terressentials for cleansing every other week (mixed with rhassoul clay)

2. changed twisting product (now use "no hold" products to twist - HV whipped gellee and shea moisture deep treatment mask or curling smoothie)

I was using ecostyler and I think even that was drying out my ends - My problem is very dry and bushy ends that knot up, then i end up popping them off :ohwell:

3. Changed PS styles - more "outs" and puffs. When my hair is in twists for more than a couple days my ends seem to get more tangly (which leads to breakage) so i only keep loose twists in for one or two days then wear a twistout / puffs for the rest of the week.

4. Mist ends with aloe vera juice every night, then re moisturize with Leave in - helps to keep the bushy ends in check

5. Make sure to sleep with my bonnet on
 
This is what I get after not detangling for 3 months:( give it to me straight girls how bad is it? It looks pretty bad to me "crying"

I don't think that is bad. Before using garlic I used to get that much shedding weekly in addition to tangles. You're doing great.
