APL/BSL 2014 Challenge

What are the naturals using for a daily moisturizer? I think this is my biggest pitfall and a big barrier to retaining length

I don't think I've officially joined this challenge (I don't know why I can never keep track of my challenges), though I do definitely lurk here. Anyway, I just came on to say that I've reached BSL as a natural. I'm psyched! :)

Happy hair growing, ladies!

Checking in. Been high bunning lately. It's getting hot, so I doubt ill do much more than that. Moisturizing and sealing daily.
 
I want to wear my hair out more and ditch the wigs for a while, but how in the heck will I style my hair? I work in a restaurant so it gas to be pulled up at all times. Can yall give me some ideas/pics of how u style your apl hair?
 
June is going to be my growth aid month. I have half a jar of LG green magic, about 2 oz of pomade shop's peppermint pomade, and I ordered 4oz of JBCO. The pomade and green magic will be for my hairline/nape, the JBCO for the rest of my scalp. Might up my cowashing too depending on how my scalp reacts.
 
My sister in law just finished my tree braids. I was running out of hair the closer she got to the center but that's okay. She made it work. Excuse my under eye circles I hate them with a passion lol!

I've been weaving it up and totally thought I was probably at BSL. I'm apl. Ah well. I'll keep on keeping on. Maybe by my birthday in October.

I did a relaxer this past weekend. Not too far from APL. I'm a slow grower, so I hope I can be there around the fall. I don't like to length check too often, so I won't do an official one until the beginning of July. I'm just praying I can clear APL by the end of the year and make BSL my goal for next year.

Yes ma'am you can...welcome
 
Im glad I didn't buy it (As I am Coconut cowash) That would've been a waste of money...

Oan I decided to change my regimen a bit. It used to be wig for 3 months then blowout hair and repeat. My edges are starting to break and I think my wig cap is to blame. Im going to start wearing my hair for a month then wig for a month so I will be getting blowouts every 2 months now. Im gonna give it a go and see if it helps with my front edges. I hope all is well with everyone :)
 
Hope everyone had a nice weekend. I didn't do anything to my hair this weekend, I had so much planned for it:ohwell: I will make up for it this week. I really want to make it to APL:yep:
 
I did a wash n go yesterday and this is my 2nd day hair in attached pics. Tonight though instead of pineappling I did some flat twists with APB caramel crunch creme.

I think I might have found a new shampoo. Elucence moisture benefits. My hair gets completely clean but it isnt left frizzy or too squeaky/stripped. I can see why it gets such positive reviews. I still want to try the CON argan oil poo though.
