BSL 2013 Challenge

just rinsed out my overnight DC of SD vanilla silk mixed with raw honey and EVOCO, sprayed on some CD black vanilla leave in and now im about to airdry.
 
Have you guys ever used Sabino Moisture Block and if so, how did it work for you? I forgot I had some in here and was wondering if it could help keep my hair from fluffing up so much after I flat iron it.

I used it back in 2008 when it first came out. Nothing to write home about. I get better results from John Frieda's frizz ease serum and I can buy that from the drugstore.

No never used or heard if it. Let me know how it works. PR humidity requires olive oil while hair is wet, air dry, put a little more olive oil, then flat iron on med-high heat with 2-3 passes on 1/4"thick hair. You have a lot of hair! It's going to take a while.
 
I'm in the process of flat ironing my hair right now. *sigh* wooooo. And I'm testing out a new product sample. The smell is NOT the business.... but my hair feels pretty good.

(It's the Original Moxie Shape Shifter Reforming Creme)

Looks like I'm getting closer. Not full BSL by a long shot but.... yeah closer than what I was. Will post pics later. :yep:

I seriously suck at challenges I need to challenge myself to come on here more often.

So I have been in and out of wigs since the beginning of the year and than beginning of may I wore a sew in until this past Sunday. I had the worst detangling session because I went over my one month rule it took me about three hours to section and detangle. I still have not dyed my hair because I bought hair chalk so that's my new best friend.


1st pic-length check stole from my IG cause I deleted the pic from my phone last night by accident
2nd & 3rd- 2nd sew in and the 3rd 3/4 wig

Hi all! How are you Ladies doing?
This morning I sprayed in a mix of Infusium and water on my braids and topped with Talia Waajid Protective mist bodifier. I also applied and massaged MN on my scalp as I mean this hair growth whether it likes it or not.
For the past 2 days I have also been incorporating exercise to my lifestyle to get more benefits. I hate exercise though so I do 15-20 minutes of High intensity interval training. I am finding this works for me as it gets my heart pumping and I feel great afterwards. I found through my research that you keep burning fat 24 hours later which is what I want so this suits me just fine....additional benefit is that it helps my hair grow!!! Yay!
I am also trying to eat healthier following the Paleo diet principles but I do cut myself some slack and have some treats once in a while....like last night I had a glass of white wine and did not feel guilty about it and even had a little piece of lemon tart and chocolate cake (little tho) and I woke up lighter than the day before.
I have been dreaming of BSL hair this week! I am haunted by it, so i'm going to do everything within my power to attain it!
 
fifigirl sounds like you got a good routine going now. If you keep this up, you'll see results soon! I do the Paleo diet for the most part. It's more of a modified Paleo diet b/c I gotta have my grains every now and then. I'm a carb junkie :lol:

lexxi the 2nd and 3rd pics aren't all your hair??? Man they look SO natural!!
 
fifigirl I love that talliah wajiid protective mist the consistency is perfect for my hair. And working out and eating right has definitely helped my hair (even though I've been slacking this week) HIIT workouts are thee best I got a lot of results w Turbofire but now I like to run (stress reliever) so haven't really done it in a while, I find incorporating protein shakes has also help my hair too :-)

Finally decided to wash dc and blow dry my hair this am I wanted to give myself a baby trim but my ends are looking good still so ill wait a couple weeks till the farmers almanac days hit for all of you who trim based on these days I took a pic as a reminder.

hi All, haven't been posted on the hair forum lately! truth is I am really bored with my hair and feel like cutting it!
i think I will hide it till december by doing twist, box braids!!
 
Relaxed and henna'd last week. The henna made a huge difference. My hair feels so soft and thick. I also tried amla oil and I'm loving it. Not greasy at all if u use just a tad. I may henna again over the weekend.

Did a quick check and I think I'm just two inches away from BSL. Will do an official check over the weekend.

Thanks NikkiQ for the thread, encouragement and lovely, positive ladies on this thread! We shall all get there by December
P.S I do grains once in a while. Cant give up my freshly baked white bread :grin::grin::grin:
 
Soooo i will not participate in the next length check because i decided to get some senagelese twist installed today. Im getting it done as i type. I just got tired of doing my hair especially with this 18 week post relaxed head lol. I will be taking care of my hair with these braids though. I have learned to moisturize and seal my braids as well as wash them. I brought some Hawaiian Silky 14 in 1 aa my braid moisturizer so i will see how it goes. Will post pics of finished hair when done!! Later Gators!!

I can't wait to see ur pics:yep::yep:
 
I do not feel like cowashing today, so I think ima skip it this week. I will probably wear my hair in a top knot bun for the remainder of the week.
 
Wore my hair in a big fluffed out puff today after taking down the Celies. I actually like this look a lot. Balances out how big my head and forehead are :lol:
 
Still have my sew in. Gonna remove it on the 29th. I wonder if I will henna that day too...
I decided to follow a strict regimen to be able to get to BSL by the end of this year. I believe in it. I should figure out how to get my scalp to normal (ACV rinse) and get this hair longer that it has never been. I take care of my hair better when I don't have a weave...but I have two wigs for Winter time, this hair is not seing the snow especially when it's -16 and below...
So yeah, motivation, TLC, good diet, a bit of exercise, lods of water, prayers and patience.
I'm about to go write my regimen for the next month...

I guess I can claim it, but it doesn't feel real. And as soon as I wash it today it's going to shrink a few inches above BSL.
