BSL 2012 Challenge!!!

So now that I made apl I wanna start my bsl journey off fresh and clean so next wash day I will use a chelating poo and a mega superstar moisturizing dc:)
 
Okay so after the pool i did an oil treatment with just olive oil, then before i went to bed added a DC of Aussie moist and olive oil (all i had, running low on hair stuff). Then yesterday i kept that mix in all day until shower time (rinsed) then i spritzed my hair with whatever is in my spray bottle ( AVJ, water, glycerin, V05 moisture milks condish and WGO i think:look:) then my mommy (i''m only:grin: 17 y'all) plaited my hair for me then i applied my MN to to parts and massaged that in, MTG mix to the length of the plaits and sealed with Shea Butter. I'll keep these in until they look nasty:yep:

My mum still plaits my hair and I'm in my 20's :lol:
 
I'm still in these mini braids. Tomorrow makes 2 weeks. I'm gonna try to hang in there at least another week. I think I'm gonna do twists for a couple of weeks and then go into some extensions from there. I need some good growth for the August length check!

Hope you ladies are doing well! :)
 
Made apl and hoping to close in on bsb by the end of the year.

Got my hair in twists right now. Think about keeping my hair "done" for the summer. I'm not usually one for psing, but if few hours every couple of weeks means I don't have to deal with my hair everyday then I'll take it.

Latest length check

Hi ladies! I did a pull test and I am APL in the front! I know, I know! No pics, then it didn't really happen! But I'm waiting to reach it in the back before I take pics.

And if you can't tell from my avi, I signed up for wl 2013. I'm focused, man!

Sooo my whole nail came off on my right thumb & it hurts like a muther.. Needless to say it is VERY difficult to do hair with 1 hand. I managed to moisturize n full head baggy for the night, hope u ladies r doing better than I.
 
What is your goal date for BSL? November 2012


What brings you to this challenge/whats your length story? (ie. This will be your first time ever being BSL; You were BSL but had a setback, or BC’d or chopped it off for a style and want it back again; You were BSL back in the day and now trying to achieve it again, etc.) never been BSL, been stuck at SL/APL for a while. bbeen cuttin and trying to reverse tthe damage while at this stage

Whats your current length? APL

Relaxed/Natural/Texlaxed/Transitioning? Natural
Whats your reggie/What are you doing to make it to BSL? ( ie. Protective styling, low heat, stretching relaxers, vitamins, etc) washing once every 2 weeks. cowashing 2-3x a week. DC 1/week M&S daily, no heat, bunning,

What do you plan to do once you make BSL? (ie. treat urself to a flat iron or blow out and swang it til u get whiplash, wear it out more, stay disciplined and focused on MBL and WL, etc)
treat myself to a blow out so i cant flaunt it then put it back up so i can get to WL. When I get to WL i might relax it again and wear it out more to enjoy it---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

**Please add a starting pic now or at least before Jan 1 2012

Checkin in sleeping in my prepoo, chelating tomorrow then DCing with heat for an hr Giovanni direct or Silk Elements leave in
 
Congrats Charla! :)

I just finished trying rhassoul clay for the first time and I liked it! I already have Suave clarifying poo as my monthly/bimonthly clarifyer so I have to find a way to work it in...

I DC'd afterwards with a moisture/protein mix. I used Joico Kpak with QH cholesterol, grapeseed oil and a tsp of sea salt. I used my heat cap for 30 minutes. My hair felt sooo soft..as usual. LoL

Yes ma'am! My hair felt very clean but not as squeaky as when I use the Suave. I used mostly water and a splash of Braggs ACV to make the mix.

My shikakai doesn't even make it feel this clean.

Wow! Rhassoul is the ultimate DC for me. My hair has never felt so soft, moisturized, springy with definition of coils EVERYWHERE. I mix my rhassoul with marshmallow and burdock root tea, with a splash of coconut oil.

Bentonite is a clarifier for me. Leave my hair clean but not stripped - nice and soft.
 
Hmm, maybe that's it. I was going to mix honey and oils and whatnot into my mix but decided to try it as I had originally read. I think that if I had mixed it all in, I could have done it all in one step -- cleanse and condition.

Maybe I'll try that before installing extensions and see how I like it. Thanks! :)
 
Tonight I Henna'd... I'll wash it out tomorrow after I go to the bss and get some silicon mix to add to my DC... Caribbean festival is in town and I have to rep Dominica ^.^ but I dont know how I am going to do my hair!
 
my mommy just put plaits in my hair:look:.. im becoming addicted to twist-outs :yep: i plan on leaving the plaits in until i decide to leave the house (whenever that may be) & put my sulphur mix in nightly. thats the gameplan for now.
 
Hey Hey:wave:

So....i put my hair in a puff today...i haven't worn a puff in a couple of months now. But today i looke in the mirror at work and i noticed my curls hang longer in my puff!!:woot: I kept waiting to see if it was just bc it was wet but a few hours later they were still dangling!

This means my hair is getting longer!:pulpdance:

I was excited!:)
 
I always told myself that if i culd reach APL that would be enough for me. when your are just SL APL seems so long but now that im APL i still feel like i dont have enough hair. Hopefully i can reach it by the end of the year. im trying to make enough money so i can get a KS or KC sew in for the summer. its HOT
