BSL 2013 Challenge

Hey guys. I just wanted to post that my DD made the Jr Rock Band!! She didn't get lead singer like she wanted but she is one of the backup singers so she's still very happy! Most of the girls sang the same songs by Taylor Swift and Adele...i knew that would happen. So my kid chose to sing Miley Cyrus "7 Things" from a few years back. I wanted her to stand out from the masses. Thank God she didn't inherit my voice, LOL! Thanks for all the good lucks!!

Question ladies, what's your hair guilty pleasure? Something you know you shouldn't be doing but you can't resist. Mine is the sun-in. It's my favorite thing to color my hair. It's fast, cheap and I always like the results. But I know it's not the healthiest thing to do.

Brushing my edges.. I CANNOT have an unslicked pony/bun, I just can't! Lol

That is so AWESOME for her...maybe we have the next AI in our midst...kind of. Good luck to her.
 
None and i would except my hair in places grows faster and I'm not looking to have blunt ends. Then again I think i may trim because I'm relaxed and my hair may be breaking....

Suny

I haven't noticed any growth either since my last length check:(. I've only been doing pull test. I'm still hoping there will be a difference in out march length check.

i did something bad today. i just rinsed my hair in the sink. i just couldn't drag myself to get back in that dang shower. took a little more time to detangle, but it worked out fine. will i do this again, Heck No, but i just couldn't deal with getting in the shower again.

i do plan on doing something nice to my hair Saturday for SO's birthday.

I use the sink some time if I'm doing too many things to my hair...like protein DC followed by moisture DC. Enough of the Shower! Lol. What hair plans do you have for Saturday?
 
Ladies I've been posting away because I'm at the airport...waiting for my flight to see SO! I picked the last flight of the day because 1) I didn't have to take the whole day off of work 2) it was the cheapest! Lol. We are going out to dinner tomorrow night. For now hair is wrapped, bonnet on and knit hat over top it all...I will unwrap for dinner tomorrow. He's in Connecticut brrrr
 
Hey ladies! I have been KISS lately. Im 18 weeks post and eager to relax buf i have 2 more weeks to go before my stretch ends. So i have been co washing, deep conditioning, moisturizing and sealing, and rocking bantu knot outs like crazy.
 
I secretly joined on the 15th of Jan, but now I'm making it known.

~Current hair length: Past SL, I'm not APL just yet. I don't straighten my hair often.

~Relaxed/Natural/Texlaxed/Loc'd: 100% natural

~BSL goal month: Not really sure, but I'll give myself until the end of the year.

~Current Reggie and styling choices: I co-wash every week (except with a Flexirod set), DC every other week, shampoo wash every 4-6 weeks. Nightly moisturize alternating between JBCO and an MN mixture and do the GHE nightly (except with a Flexirod set). Flexirod set every two weeks, or I alternate between a braidout and bun throughout the month, but I'm in love with my Flexirod sets.

~What do you plan on changing (if anything) to make it to BSL?: I don't plan on changing anything, I'm going to keep it the same.

~Post a beginning picture: I'll be sure to post a pic ASAP

Mine is comb detangling :nono: I just can't freakin' take the time to finger detangle. But that has to change :ohwell:

I did an impromptu length check and in three months it doesn't appear I've gained any length. I'm sad. Off to dc....

SunySydeofLyfe and pelohello OMG join the team! What is going on right now? It must be the winter or something b/c we have all made it to APL, so BSL should be breezy, right? I guess WRONG lol. I'm sure the March length check will show results :grin:

Welcome praisedancer

Well, nothing to report, except I cowashed today, why? IDK, because I'm a glutton for punisment, sick or not, I am mini-twisting this weekend, the less I deal with my loose hair, the better. Still sick :ohwell:
 
I do washed with the As I Am Coconut Cowash and them used VO5 moisture Milk after... My hair feels surprisingly great. If I took it out of these braids it would tangle... But still feels good at the roots. I like it! I think I might use the As I Am more often!

Currently have two French braids in the front and some Miss Celie braids in the back. Going to wear my hair out on Sunday.
 
I got the job ladies! Thanks for all your prayers. I start tomorrow. I'm scared I won't have time for my hair, na I'm joking my hurr come 1st!
 
TGIF Ladies!!! :woot:


IDK about yall, but I'm looking forward to wash day. My scalp is itchin like it's nobody's business right now!
 
Morning Ladies!:drunk:

I have had my hair in the Dutch twist (That's what I call it) all week. I think this will be my PS until length check. This weekend I plan on shampooing, DC & protein. I think since I plan on wearing this Dutch twist all week w/o M&S throughout the week, I am going to heavily M&S on wash days. I was trying to cowash every other day but it's too much manipulation for me. So I'm going back to cowashing once a week and washing my hair (this includes mild protein) once a week.

Hopefully this low-manipulation will help with retention. The only problem is that I haven't mastered the Dutch twist so it takes me a couple of trys. But I figure since I'm not touching my hair untill wash day I should be ok.

Happy Growing Ladies!!:drunk::drunk::drunk:

CONGRATULATIONS!! With this economy, I am always excited to hear when someone becomes gainfully employed.:woot::woot::woot:
 
Question for those that use hair gel to lay down their edges or just use hair gel in general.

When it's wash day to you apply your prepoo/DC to your hair with the gel on or do you wash the gel out then start your prepoo/DC?

Thanks
 
So, here's a better pic of what my length looks like. I guess I'm APL, I thought I was SL for some reason.
