I haven't studied Spanish in YEARS so I'm incredibly rusty lol. I can pronounce words properly when I see them and I pick up on things people say,but I'm nowhere near as fluent as i'd like to be.

Ooooook. So sorry I've been away so long ladies. I've literally been all over the place studying for the MCAT and working. I miss you guys so much! My hair is progressing pretty well. I'm about an inch or two from APL so hopefully by December I'll be a couple of inches past and get a trim and still retain APL. I'm still planning on making it to MBL by the end of 2013 so I need to keep myself in check. Any ladies have suggestions for moisturizers and low manipulation and protective styles other than buns that have worked for them growth-wise. As soon as I straighten again (or take these rollers) I'll take a picture :)

Impromptu length check last night. This is my hair 50% blow dried then air dried then stretched in a bun.

I think I'm getting there. In pics I can see that I'm close but in the mirror I still feel like my hair is just touching the bottom of my neck because although i'm relaxed I feel like my hair just gets fluffed up to there.

I put suave humectress conditioner on my ends and edges last night. Slept with a plastic cap. Today I'll wash , blow dry just 25% and then do a twist out. Can't wait to see the results!!

That thread about everyone's goals for the end of the year has me wondering...

NikkiQ I'm aiming for full APL by December 31, 2012! that's when my rollerset hair will fall naturally at APL ;)

Good goals ladies!!! Very obtainable. I have all the faith in the world that you all will meet your goals. And then you guys will have to come out here to PR to visit me for a APL graduate hair swangin party :lachen:

longfroinghair I agree with the ladies you are APL! You have very thick and healthy hair in these pictures! Slow growth yet you are APL Congratulations! ;)
 
Out here in PR there's always something going on outdoors lol. Just gotta get the right group together and do it. Going explore some caves this weekend. My week days are boring as HELL though!

lol livinthevida I haven't claimed it because it is about 2 inches from full APL, which i'm shooting for. But yeah I'm soo close and it definitely has thickened :). Thanks for the encouragement all on this challenge :)
