Good Morning Ladies!!
I finally bought the Wild Growth Oil (the one in the white and green bottle). On the bottle it says to use 1-3 times per week. Do any of you ladies use it more than 1-3 per week? I want to make this my new sealant. I plan on taking before & after pics to see if I have any progress.

CONGRATULATIONS NikkiQ ON making APL!!
I relaxed last Thursday and cut about an inch to even my back hemline. Realistically, I won't make APL by 12/31, I'm now looking at 4/2013 instead. A four month setback is hard but my thin ends were beginning to be unbearable to look at.
Here is my relaxer results:

Thanks! Yes this is my natural color, I love it! My mom would always say my hair is the same color as my dad's mustache, lol! The shine is courtesy of African Royal Hot Six Oil. I just discovered it a few weeks ago and the shine this stuff has is incredible.

I am thinking of bunning for a few months. Has anyone had success with this. I thinking one day to dry in a low bun than 3-4 days in a high bun then DC and repeat. I will have to tension blow dry when its gets cooler because my hair takes 2 days to dry even when it is hot. Any thoughts? Warnings? Suggestions?
Maybe I i will start a thread seeking advice from slow dryers on styling.

Thanks Seamonster!! FYI, I didn't relax myself, my paranoia s awful, I'm afraid I'll watch my hair slowly slide down my drain, lol.

KiWiStyle I luv your relaxer results and your natural hair color, did you relax at home and how often do you relax? I feel like I wont make APL this year either but enjoying the journey and I need to put the scissors down!!
Thanks Fyne! I relaxed at the salon and this was my first 16 week relaxer stretch. It was a difficult decision to cut an inch knowing my end of year goal but what good is APL hair if the ends wispy are see thru? It was a necessary evil and I want to br FULL APL when I do claim it. I really want my hair to sit at APL and not stretch to it. I'm enjoying the journey as well ;-)

Yes, I want my hair to hang to APL when I flat iron too. Whenever that happens I will claim it.

When I was roller setting last nite, I did a pull test and I am almost back to APL! I think i can reclaim by the end of September. I haven't used any heat on my hair for over a month. My hair needed that break! And it stopped me from checking my length constantly 
. Trying to wait until September to straighten so I can be pleasantly surprised.

Good Morning Ladies,
I was inspired @NikkiQ, to do a pull test to see where I am at and it looks like I don't have much longer until I can claim APL. I think I should be there by October
.
@livinthevida, I bought the WGHO Sunday and so far it's great. How often do you use it? I'm gonna do the recommended amount for right now except for I'm not going to do the 20 drops per section. It was alittle too oily for me.
I know you guys like pics, so here are sum pics of my pull test and my current style (I think it's called the navy bun).
Happy Growing Tuesday!
