BSL 2013 Challenge

I'm not a part of this challenge but I would like to join for next year so I hope it's ok if I vote?? (for BSL/MBL).
My streeeeeeeeeeetch goal has been BSL by June. Being positively optimistic that I will reach my goal in June I would work towards MBL by year end.

You are so right! Healthy hair does start from within. Tell It!


  • 4c - all natural since 2011
  • Current length 2" past APL after wash (haven't straightened since spring 2013 so not sure if I reached my goal yet. I'll know in Dec.)
  • Challenges: BSL Dec. 2013, Inversion method.
  • Goal thick and long (WL by Dec 2014, sooner if inversion method proves positive) hair.
 
Just found out what the inversion method is and decided to give it a try. If it works I will reach the BSL goal by Dec for sure :yep:. On night #4. Anticipation, arrgh!

Been wearing the twisted bantu knot out disaster in a ponytail the past 2 days :lol: Gonna rock this sucker in a bun tomorrow and Saturday then gonna wash it on Sunday. I'm itching to try a wash n go for some reason. Maybe it's the newly trimmed ends got me feeling brave. the next challenge is targeted to be created on October 31st ladies!!! So one final vote: A] BSL/MBL 2014 B] MBL 2014 Both will be open to all lengths. I encourage all to join.

I'm open to both because they're both ultimately the same in finishing the year off with MBL hair. However, if I have to choose, I'd vote for BSL/MBL.

Bsl/Mbl 2014 soule be great! Can't wait.
Washing my cornrows with the stocking cap made all the difference. I have been rinsing my hair daily due to workout and it is not fuzzy, which is a miracle. I intend to keep the cornrows for 3 to 4 weeks. I am on a mission

Really? I read it as some people will want to finish the year with BSL hair and some will have a goal of MBL hair. What was your interpretation NikkiQ?

From what I've seen, most are just needing the first quarter of 2014 to reach BSL and maybe a little beyond. I think the ultimate goal is to keep the group together as some may have had a setback OR are slow growers like myself. For example, I don't think I should be in a 2014 BSL challenge when I'll graduate the early part of the year. I literally push myself to graduate with my class...it's a challenge because I am the little engine that could. It also helps me stay focused on my goal when I'm surrounded by ladies reaching the goal before December. We don't want to kick anyone when they're down, we want to motivate and encourage. We're a team and a team that stays together, grow together. The choice is ultimately NikkiQ so I'm cool with whatever because whether I make MBL or BSL next year, I'm staying with the ladies in this group because I stay motivated here.

I Miss this crew too! If I join it will be a Dec goal for sure. But I know it will be a long shot. Ill going in the middle of next year if I make apl by June. I plan to bun for a year.
 
Well I honestly thought that since there are a few of us (myself included) that don't need the entire year to reach BSL, it would be a good way to keep us and those that are striving for MBL all together. I think everyone has the same goal of reaching MBL at the end of the year anyway so why not create a challenge to keep us all together? Whether we're excited that one of us hit BSL or MBL, we're a family that loves to encourage one another.

If making it just straight up MBL would make it less confusing for everyone, I can just do that.
 
I won't make bsl this year, but would love to be with you all next year so I vote bsl/mbl. You guys provide great motivation to stick with a regimen.

I'm currently in mini twists...had a slight setback with post partum shedding, but not waddling in it. Will baby my ends and edges for the remainder of the year to see if I can get them back on track.
 
I agree with NikkiQ the end goal is MBL for 2014 and we want to stick together! I've been with you ladies since the APL challenge and if there's a WL challenge after this Ill be there for that (Since that's my goal and maybe many of you too.) So I'm down with either but MBL is less confusing and those who aim for BSL by 2014 end are able to move onto that challenge

Thank you, Kiwi. You've said a mouthful!
 
I would like to join the new challenge. I am currently BSL, striving for MBL next spring. I know I am just now chiming in, but I vote BSL/MBL. I striving to grow past this level and like others, I need all the support I can get.
 
Hey ladies I have a question I know we've went over this before but where are you all measuring BSL status at the top of your bra or the bottom of your bra?
 
I am going to use this hair chart as my length check. I am tall with a long neck and long torso... so my journey to a length takes a little longer than most.

If this challenge rolls over to next yr I would love to join for the BSL/MBL Challenge. I went to my stylist a couple of weeks ago and let her blow dry/flatiron my hair on a higher heat setting (in September I had her do it on very low heat it only looked APL cause it wasn't stretched all the way) but this time it blew my mind to see my hair stretched to BSL. I was so happy :) Of course my luck has it that many of my ends were split :/ I went from definitely BSL, to currently grazing BSL (longest tips still touch my brastrap).Goal is to be MBL by my birthday March. Lol I'm trying to be a big girl and keep up w/trims. My stylists suggested half an inch every 3 months? What do you guys think is a good trimming schedule?
 
Niknak20 I used to do dustings/super small trimmings every 3 months or so. The stylist I went to recently said to just listen to your hair and trim when it tells you to. Sometimes you'll need one after 3 months. Other times, you might be able to go 6 months.
 
I'm focused on MBL now even though I keep lurking here because I don't think I'll be at MBL by the end of 2013. I guess I'd vote for the option of BSL/MBL 2014?
