BSL 2013 Challenge

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!

Congratulations!!!!! Don't worry, you will definitely find time for your hair, even if it means stay up till the wee hours of the night, ;-).
 
lamaria211 Congrats!! :clap: there's always time for hair lol jk

I'm on a personal mission not to length check until my next touch up in May, the only person I'd be fooling is myself so I really want to do it.
Oh yeah I touched up yesterday at about 12 weeks post then blow dried my hair

I believe I am back at shoulder length after a much needed 3 inch trim :( I uploaded a picture last week and on this thread. A bit sad but whatever. Bon chance, ladies!
 
Im also only checking quarterly ..... hopefully Im not disappointed. I know Im in my slow growth period now so Im not expecting much.
 
NikkiQ thank you for your recommendation of aphogee two step treatment. My hair is not back to pre damaged curls but at least I have waves now. I will keep doing the treatment, not sure how often.
 
No more length checks for me until say June i want to be pleasantly surprised so let me wig on

Same here. I'm only doing LC on relaxer day from now on. I did the year end LC in December and relaxed several weeks later but I was mad that I didn't get that "surprise" element.

Ok here's a pic with my length check shirt. My layers are growing out. I think that BSL (top of bra strap) is 6.5 and MBL is 8.5.

It's been 4 wks and it's time to take these flat twist out!!! They still look good if I say so myself. I plan to let my hair out for a month before I go into another protective style.

Tonight I plan to prepoo with Amla oil (my first time using it). I want to do a henna treatment this weekend. I need to go to the health food store so I can buy some fresh herbs and tea bags for my final tea rinse. Gotta go to the Indian store to buy my henna, vitamin shoppe for aloe vera juice too lol. I got a lot to do this afternoon lol.
 
Just checking in. I'm trying so hard to keep my braid extensions in. I've been wearing them for three weeks now and I'm so ready to comb my hair, especially when perusing other people's pics. My goal is to make it to March 1st. So far, I have a good bit of new growth in the back and a little in the front. Wish me luck!
 
I love airdrying and I love Sally's version of Paul Mitchell The Detangler. I have to slowly clip these scraggly, uneven ends to reach my goal by December (bottom of bra strap, blunt, healthy ends). I haven't used any heat since New Year's Day :) I'm 8 weeks post, and usually stretch to 12. So far, so good.
 
Hey ladies, I'm still hanging in with moisturizing and sealing daily. I know I promised to come back with pics of my wig but after that "Miguel" thread pic debacle I decided against putting my face out there. :look:

Anyway, here is he wig I'm currently rocking with some corn rows underneath. I've gotten lots of compliments and the color I got is closer to my natural color than a previous unit I had. This one is a little thin so I'm careful with it and haven't gotten too much shedding.

Post pics please :-)

I'm sorry...I didn't get a chance to take a pic. I was running late, of course she over booked(my petpeeve). Anyway, that hair style is no more:giggle:. DH was sooo excited to see my hair done :kiss4: We never made it to dinner last night, there was a lot of this going on:sandm::pulpdance: and I woke up looking like this :hair: So I sat in a salon for 6hrs just to have a style last 2hrs:ohwell: but I guess it was worth it just to see the expression on his face:lol:
