BSL 2013 Challenge

Oil-washed (or is oil rinse the correct term) my hair with castor oil, then co-washed with Aussie Moist 3 minute miracle. Sealed with RBO. Hair feels strong, soft, and slightly oily. The oil will wear off by the morning.

@pellohello, I have begun to incorporate more protein into my diet. I drink a shake twice a day. I also want to try one of these green superfood drinks. Seems like a good way to get greens in.

Rocked a high bun today at work. Idk if I can wear this very often though. My head is shaped too funny for it :lol:

I feel the same way about high buns. I like the way they look from the front, but I think the back of my head is too flat or something.

I drink a green smoothie every morning. I drink: 1 cup spinach or kale, 1/2 cup strawberries, 2-3bananas, 8oz almond milk and 1tbsp of apple fiber. I really do think that a high fiber/clean eating helps w/ hair growth (besides the other physical benefits:yep:) Have you checked out the natural living section? Under the thread "raw/vegan bandwagon", they have really great green smoothie recipes.
 
Starting to get cold feet about this blow out next week :-/ got some Curlformers well the bootleg ones from amazon in my hair right now well see how these turn out maybe I can use them once a week to keep my hair stretched
 
Cowashed my twists. Will apply my NJoy oil to my scalp, Hairitage Soft Coconut Marshmallow to the length and seal with HH Horsetail Butter. :lick: Love pampering my hair.
 
Doing a 4-minute inverted scalp massage with sunflower/rosemary/peppermint oil. Then LCBing. My hair today was in a jumbo twist bun.

Decided to get a wig instead of braids! I had my BFF to braid my hair into a beehive and I'm going to try the deep moisture method until December and see what type of results I get. I hope I retain a lot using this method. I will keep using my same regimen while my hair is braided so I'm keeping my fingers crossed :)
 
Hi, I too like EastpeaZee have been away from LHCF for some time. I was doing the AP challenge earlier in the year and now I'm ready for the BSL 2013 challenge. I know the year is almost over, but I would like to join for the last few months.

Since summer I've been wig styling, however every week I:
*rinse my hair with vinegar/water solution,
*moisture daily with Shea Moisture and/or coconut oil/distill water,
*spray with aloe vera water.
Once a month I:
*clarify poo
*moisture or protein heat treatment (olive/coconut oil or organic mayo),
*then rinse hair with vinegar/water solution
*spray with aloe vera water,
*vitamin E ends,
*seal with coconut oil and shea butter.
Vitamins and Minerals:
*MSM, bee pollen, fish oil, DE and multi vit.,
then I braid it all back up for my wig, except I did do a blow out for the LA hair expo.

Welcome Beautifulwildflower!

After wearing my hair out in a twist out, it felt a little dry so I lightly sprayed with a little diluted Komaza Califia spray, then added some Hairveda Whipped Creme Ends, sealed with Hairveda Almond Glaze. Also massaged my scalp with NJoy's Growth oil, especially my crown. :lick:

I put my hair up in about 10 large braids and put a little EcoStyler on it for a braid out tomorrow. Then this evening I will prepoo with sunflower oil overnight, co-cleanse w/Naturelle Grow Lemon Detox, and DC with the last bit of SD Vanilla Silk. I'll put my hair in some medium flat twists in the front and medium twists in the back w/braided roots.
 
So last night I did a HOT with Amla and black castor oil. Plan on doing a shampoo, protein and DC today. Just trying to figure out what style I want to attempt. The weekend is the only time I have to experiment....think I might just blowdry on cool and do my usual bun or do a dry Bantu knot out. Doubt I'll leave the house much so i can prolly leave the knots in until tomorrow
 
Hey guys. Here are my latest "length check" pictures. I'm in the braid/twist/bun for growth challenge so I had to make a starting pic. You obviously can't see my bra here so I don't count this as official for this challenge. When my braids are out, I will take my official pic.

It may not be official, but it looks like you are there, and will be at MBL by the end of the year.
