Lucie your hair is thick & beautiful and looks way past APL to me. But it is not that. My hair is not at APL for me. Sure I can pull some strands but it does not stay there, it is uneven and very v shaped. I am seriously considering a bob but I think I will regret it so I am going to just get a trim.
Back to lurking.

more protective styling, since we are getting into the cold weather, i need to keep my hair, especially my ends tucked away. but nothing else is really changing. i think you just have to be more careful with your ends and handling your hair. it's going to grow regardless.

I want to join. I am in the APL 2013 Challenge but I think I might make full APL by March 2013. I would like to shoot for BSL by Dec 2013. I will post the answers to your questions tomorrow. In the mean time here are current pics of my hair after a wash.

Hello ladies I also want to join this challenge. I'm already in the APL challenge but BSL should definitely be achievable if I've done my research correctly.. I can't figure out how to thank from the app so I'll do it *** soon as I hop on a computer.

Don't let this pic fool you it's just for length. My hair is very thin and definitely needs a lot of tlc

I know I sound like a broken record but the longer it gets the more you'll believe in keeping it simple. Less experimenting and just sticking with what works.

My reggie is already super simple so I think it's just a matter of change in PS options. I do Celies/braids all the time but my ends aren't really protected since they tend to fluff up on the ends so I think it's time to make bunning my best friend.
I'll be starting on Monday. After a good 1-2" trim...I'm ready to grow.

As several ladies have said KISS == keep it simple, low manipulation, get your reggie down solid and stick to it.
thats what broke me out of stagnation at SL for a whole year and getting me on the grow/retention again.
I plan to continue to KISS on to BSL

Stop frontin, you know me!
I'm right behind you, I'm trying wet bunning now until the end of the yr and see if I can get an inch by then.

That's kind of exciting to here from you. I will take some better pics next time I straighten.... I want to be sure. I have also been slacking off on my hair lately so, I didn't think I would be apl till next year. But if I an apl by the end of this year I'm getting a trim. I want to start this new journey and new year with fresh ends.
