Okay so I got my hair straightened for real today.

Washed and DEEP conditioned my hair, then she blew it out and flat ironed it.

So here's my final picture. Probably wont straighten again at the end of the year. I joined the BSL 2013 challenge too. I'm gonna get there come hell or high water darn it! Lol

Where my finger is, is the top of my BR strap.

I'm about an inch away...I'm at bsl wet I think...not dry tho. I'm on a mission to cut out heat til the end of the year to make my goal.
 
Length check. I took off about a little more than an inch after the pics. I plan to straighten again in December.

Gorgeous! What's your regi?
Click to expand...

Thank you! My regi for the most part is low manipulation. I wash with a sulfate free shampoo and DC once per week. My main styles are WNG, twistouts/braidouts, and buns. I moisturize and seal every 2-3 days, and I've only straightened one time so far this year. I plan to start trimming my hair every 4 months or so to slowly get rid of the BC layers (my goal is u-shaped MBL).

Oh, and I've been taking viviscal since late July.

Your regi sounds great. I just started taking viviscal in Oct but I'm looking forward to good results.
 
gforceroy it's working very well. I don't straighten often so I usually base my growth off of how fast/strong my nails are growing. I know that might sound crazy, but my hair usually grows well when my nails do. Since starting the Viviscal I have had to cut down my nails a lot because they are always growing so fast. I don't like the smell of the pills or the taste, but that doesn't last and the pills are small.
 
I am mere centimeters away from BSL. I am sure I will make it by December 31 11:59 PM. How-the-ever, I'm cutting 1-2 inches as soon as I get there. I have color at the ends of my hair that I realllly want to get rid of. I will post a picture later today.
 
I still haven't totally given up on 2012, although I enrolled in class of 2013. I plan to twist out this week and then get crochet braids on next Monday hopefully and not look at my hair until the end of the year or as long as I can make it last! If I have to get a second set, I will!
 
i slept with oil in my hair. it's been in there since yesterday morning. guess i will be washing it out today. i hate when i do that.
 
Here's a little update of my braids I love how long they are getting, my dream is to have waist length braids !

I did a henna gloss & DC treatment over the weekend and put my hair back into a bun. Friday should be a month I've been in protective style mode. I will get my hair straighten and ends dusted Friday. I can't wait to see if I made any progress.
 
:hiya: Ladies posting here my new length check pictures shared between the BSL & APL 2012 Challenges!!!

WOOOOOWWWAAA! :shocked: What a difference a month makes! I have yet to trim but I think returning to Organic Coconut Oil (OCO) on October 8, 2012 improved the condition and length of my hair. I am prett-e sure OCO and me will be staying together for a loooooong time :grin:
​

Good thing I joined NikkiQ's new BSL 2013 Challenge! My new goal is to be full BSL vs full APL in 2013!!! I am still keeping with my ultimate goal to reach Waist Length (WL) in 2013!!!

Congrats and awesome progress. How do you use your OCO by the way and do you do it in the winter time as well?
 
Beginning January of this year I cut about 4 to 5 inches of hair due to moisture overload. The first pic shows where I started this year which was at neck length. The next pic shows where I am now. That pic was taken in October of this year. I hope to reach brastrap length by the very end of this year Lord willing.
