APL GROW ON CHALLENGE 2011!(Prizes!)

I am finding someone to give me those prairie cornrows today. I am going to wear them to work Monday-Wednesday. I am hoping they are professional enough for me to wear, I don't have to go to our state capitol building this week and most of my associates will be out of town already. If I like them on me I am going to ask her to do them again.
 
I'm tired of bunning. My hair has retained length, but I am so tired of this bun. I'm going to give myself another aphogee protein treatment before TG, then it's relaxer time. No more bunning. I want my hair to swing again.

Hello my beautiful hair growing ladies!!!!:grin: I am just checking in, and I hope that all of you are doing well! I had cornrows in for two weeks and tried to make it to 4 but couldn't !:nono: I think it is easier to keep them in for me, when I am closer towards the 4 or 5 month of my stretch because I don't like to bother my new growth:lick: However, today is wash day, I plan on dcing, and doing a protein treatment. So I am excited, then it's back to cornrows and back to rocking my wigs!!!:yep:I am also getting faster growth and its all because of working out, taking my hairfinity vitamins daily, megateking every other day, and moisturizing and sealing daily. Oh an my hair is loving castor oil!:lick:
 
Hello Ladies just checking in... Yesterday I posted a thread saying that I felt like quitting because I was not seeing any progress but with the encouragement from so many ladies I decided to stick to it. So with that being said, I'm still sticking to my reggie and starting to Bun more often. I will post pics in January to compare to my starting pic. Thanks again ladies!

Thank You!! Right now I feel like my bun is just alright, but I want the biggest stupidest bun possible. Hopefully one bigger than my head. :lol:
 
Got my braids in and I they are pencil thickness. I think i will be doing a personal crown and glory method. I hope to keep these in by Feb of next year, so that leaves 3 full months. It took the braider 3 hours which was a record. I hope to be full SL by feb.
 
Good luck on this challenge. I willparticipate and cheer you guys on from the sidelines.

I think I need to start looking into another sulfur based product. Bee Mine is okay but I wanna venture out and check on a few others. Any suggestions ladies?

I ordered the sublimed sulfur and got it on Monday. It looks like a little goes a very long way. I am still trying to figure out how I will incorporate it into my reggie. I am product rich and knowledge poor.

I am trying to find a reggie but every time someone recommends something I go out and purchase it. Now I have tons of stuff that I never had before. I haven't been to Sally's in years but I have gone 2 in the last two weeks. :lachen:

Anyway, all that to say sublimed sulfur is another option.
