These took 5.5 hrs so the time savings was really not there, but I was pleased with the overall result. I could actually get then shorter than I could if I got trad kinky twists with my hair out. The goal is to keep these in for 1 month.

I finally did a length check last night. I did it on wet hair as it seems I might not be straightening my hair for a w hile. JUst have not desire to.
After my haircut back this summer, it looks like I'm back to grazing bsb.
Some comparison pictures:
Length check back in March. This is what prompted the haircut. The ends were not looking good at all.
Length check back in January
And this is where my hair was this time last last.

Could someone tell me what is the length of my hair in this picture I took two months ago? I just finished blow drying and was about to press it. I have been washing/conditioning every other week and then flat iron. I wrap at night. Exercise, drink water, eat well. I have started keratin treatments once every six weeks. I am looking into cellophane treatments. Does this work? Thanks!

tinagreen10 I can't see your armpits in the picture so it's hard to say if you're APL or not yet.
I get tinted cellophane treatments every 8 weeks to cover up my gray. They work for that and they make my hair very shiny, but I don't now if they are good for my hair health or not.

girls..... my hair seems so damaged that im thinking of cutting everything and going for a short relaxed style until i feel ready to grow long hair again. my har feels softer today since i moisturized last night.(feels softer that usually)But! i told you my crown broke (cut back to ear length that area), its as if the diameter of that hard hair is growing out and even reaching my front hair,and the back which is usually 4a type. like im attacked or something. my hair has thinned out on its lengths.... and i cant even twist my hair !! its long only in the outside ,all around my head. like babies when they have no hair in the middle. the texture is all around becoming the same as the crown it seems. feels like im dealing with 2 totally different textures. roots are a forest, ends feel as thin and less hair as if it was relaxed. so hard to catch up,even with deep conditionning :-( its a mess! im so confused. first real setback in 5 years.
what do you all think? what woûld you have done?
i almost took an appointment at the salon last week,to relax and cut.

personally I would cut and start fresh, sounds harsh but I always prefer shorter healthy hair than long and damaged. Good luck

I agree, I would cut too. You could do it gradually or all at once. I was having breakage in that area too, so when I 1st noticed it, I started cutting about an inch a month all around so that I can remove the breakage and so that the other areas could catch up. I did that for about 6-7mths. My crown is still shorter than the rest of my hair, but not enough to notice. How bad is it? Can you get away with snipping a little over a time or is it too bad where you need a cut?
Do you know what's causing the breakage? Mines was from stretching my relaxers too long & my protein/moisture was wayyyy off. It took a protein overload to know what moisture/protein balance was.

I don't know why I wait so late in the day to start henna/indigo treatments. Now I'm committed to staying up late tonight. Lol
I, too, noticed a good amount of breakage this week in the spot where I usually put my bun. Thought I moved my buns in different locations enough to avoid tension breakage but I guess not. My hair is so fine...can't really afford to lose too many strands all willy nilly. Oh well...lesson learned.
