APL/BSL 2014 Challenge

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.
veesweets staple shampoo here. I love love this shampoo. The con argan oil does not compare. Well the con argan oil left my hair dried and hard.
 
I took down my celie's today. Im going to let my hair breathe until I get my blowout on Friday. Here is a pic

Eta I got tired of the braidout so I put it up into a messy bun :)

Okay, so my last post was pretty woe is me, but I have started bunning, got a great LM reggie, and my hair is fine. :)

Here are some progress pics:

Sometimes it really helps to see photos. I measured my hair and I have about 5 inches until I'm APL

Yes I can see the difference. Looks great and you don't much to go
 
I've been following this challenge unofficially and gave myself til summer to hit APL from SL. I'm APL (stretched hair) now and I'm giving myself, hopefully by the end of the year to be BSL on my middle layers.
Since I got such good results with my first half of the year, imma be ambitious now.
I measured 5&1/2 inches on my bottom layer in DEC after my big chop and I'm at 9 inches on that layer, after trimming an inch or so last month.
So BSL by dec/jan on my middle layer is the goal.

I will have some comparison pics next time I post.
 
I have to really detangle my hair before I go to the salon on Friday. Last time the shampoo girl balled it all up and it matted like crazy. This time I will be prepared. Im gonna get a bottle of vo5 and get all the tangles out myself
 
Thanks ladies. Maybe I'll just stick to this and not try anything else. If it aint broke dont fix it, right? It really is a nice shampoo. I love the smell too.

This is my motto from now on. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!! I might do a minor tweak here and there, but I'm not trying and new products or methods. It's too risky and my hair takes too long to grow back and recover.
 
I don't know whether to be cute this summer and do the amino acid treatment or if I should wait for December when I have a little more length.
 
I wanna join. The only pic I have is from October when I did a amino acid treatment on my hair. I will try to do a strand/pull test later today. For my starting length. I think I am a little past apl when stretched.

This is the pics from my last treatment. I don't remember the brand my hair dresser used, it wasn't design essentials.
 
Couldn't attach to previous message.
