Did you actually measure it? All over? Sometimes different areas have different growth rates.

I don't know. I just expect more dramatic results. But I ran out of aphogee 2 minute a while back, so I don't know... maybe I needed protein treatments. But I also heard that natural hair shouldn't really need protein treatments.

Dont go to bed!wake up at 5am?
I'm allergic to 5 AM!!! I need my beauty rest!
I washed and am about to rinse out my DC in a minute. Can I twist for a twistout while it's that wet, or do I need to wait until morning when it is mostly dry?

Well, I just finished taking out my braids this week and refreshed my color, did a pre apple vinegar rinse, and an organic orange blossom wash. It's a hand soap but I like the ingredients in it:
water
coconut oil
olive oil
natural vegetable glycerin
aloe leaf extract
vitamin E
and essential oils,
Afterwards, I did and liquid aloe spray on scalp, vitamin E on my ends and coconut concentrate oil with shea butter to seal. Next week i'll be in Senegalese twists. Can't wait.

Did a light/medium dusting yesterday a.m. following my emergency protein treatment two days ago due to breakage. Finished dusting, did a M&S with my spritz and CON Argan Oil Leave-In. Have been participating in the GHE challenge also, so my hair is really nice and soft, well moisturized. Don't know if the breakage was due to over-baggying or simply lack of moisture but either way I feel good that I addressed it immediately.

So I only made it 8 weeks in these brides...need a touch up but my braider is away so I'm taking them own and getting more after my BDay next month.
Plan is to clarify, protein treatment, followed by a dc/steam with moisturizing con, 2strand twists updo. I'll post length check pics Monday.
Happy Mother's Day to all the mommies...let's enjoy our day & our kids.

I feel the same way. That's why my hair is in twists at the moment.

I hate flakey females. My girl has been bugging me for over a month now about having girls night out. I did some fresh Celies so I can rock the natural hair tonight only for get *** to bail on me 2 hours before we're supposed to meet because it's drizzling outside. Ugh!!!

Ladies,
Arg! So I went ahead and did a blow-out on my hair last night- I went out with my home girl and I wanted my 'fro to be large & in charge. So girl, the style was cute for the night but the next day, I noticed that my 4B, fine hair was a little pissed because I disturbed the PS groove. The ends were soooo dry and I could tell that the much appreciated moisture my hair once had was zapped to hades by my Gold 'N' Hot blow dryer (I did use a heat protector, one thing that I did right.) Today, I had to baby my ends by misting my hair with water, applying some aloe vera gel, and sealing with oils. I twisted this junk up and now wearing my conditioning cap cause my hair MUST be moisturized ASAP. My hubs calls me foil head (lol!!!) when I wear it but I say stix and stones boo ...
Long and the short of it, I don't think I will blow out my hair EVER (dramatic much? Yes!) ... next time I want big hair, I will do a twist out and fork my hair out from there. Lesson learned, point goes to 'Sheba Baby' with her finicky self ;(
