BSL/MBL 2014 Challenge

Oh it's been a while since I've visited this thread .... Hello ladies
I've been in braids for 8 weeks now and I refuse to take them out because I'm lazy and I don't have time to so give or take another month smh

I don't know where my hair is at this moment but I know one side is about an inch longer than the other
I figure if I protective style for the rest of the year my longest length will make it to Mbl....

I have a personal goal to protective style for 1 year so hopefully I make it..2 months down

Hi ladies. Been lurking, not posting much. I'm still taking these Manetabolism vitamins. Been getting a good .5" in growth for the past two months. That's good for me as a slow grower. I hope to be MBL by September at this rate.

ImanAdero I feel you about chasing WL. My original goal was MBL anyway, so if I can get there, I'll honestly be fine. After MBL, I will probably stop checking.

Lilmama1011 Welcome! Congrats on reaching your goal of APL. When will your next relaxer be?

Although just to be real... My initial goal was WL... But I'm kinda over chasing it.

So I'm going to start focusing on healthier hair now. If I get to WL, cool. If not, I will be A-OK!

Ita! I am currently in a sew-in that I installed yesterday. I have been in protective styles for 1 month, then I wear my hair out for 3-7 days then back into protective styles.

I don't take hair vitamins, no sulfur or monistat, no nothing else but a daily multivitamin, workout and drink water.

I am getting about 1 in a month and I am a slow grower.
 
Washed my hair in the weave... I oiled my scalp and braids... I am going on vacation next week... Gotta figure out what I'm gonna do... I know I need to dry my braids at night after washing/if I go in the pool... So I need to figure out whic products I'll be bringing.
 
Just completed my wash day. I was going to blow dry for a length check, but I didn't have time. I will do it next weekend.

Today I shampooed, dced, and moisturized. I will stretch it a bit with twists. Then I will wear a bun or something.
 
Last night I put Annabelle's ayurvedic oil on my hair and let it sit overnight. Today I cowashed with SSI Blueberry cowash cleansing condish and dc'd with Annabelle's Blueberry Deep Condish and went under the dryer for 20 mins.
I rinsed and roller set my hair with magnetic rollers. I used my leave in's SSI Moisture Mist Leave in and SSI Coco Creme Leave in. Then I set with CON wrap foam lotion (really love this) and Chi silk fusion.

Pre parting my hair and starting with the back instead of the front when doing the mohawk method helped me speed up a lot.
 
Big hair plans tonight. I'm prepooing with coffee oil, then will cowash with VO5, and then DC overnight.

Forgot how much I like Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie. Makes my hair feel so soft, like it's coated with a cone conditioner.
 
Hey ladies, I havent posted in here in a while! My go-to style over the last 6 months has been a bun or lace wig, and frankly im sick of them both. So I decided to do something different and dye my hair bright red tonight. Im probably going to wear my hair in a cinnabun tomorrow.



My current hair situation:
Currently sitting under my thermal cap, DCing with a mix of LaKair cholesterol and BASK YAM.
 
So I need to start putting grease in my hair o_o Not looking forward to this change but its a must. I just moved and its sooooo darn dry out here its sucking the moisture out of my hair and skin!!! Last time my hair felt this dry I was still relaxing my hair with super strength relaxer from root to tip every relaxer :look:

I've been bs'ing on making my grease. I bought a big ol' tub of shea butter to melt down and mix with evco and eo. I'mma slather my self in it from head to toe every day! I swear I see chunks of skin crack and fall off every time I move! I didnt realize there would be such a drastic change for my skin and hair! I only moved 73 miles!!!! sheesh
 
Hey guys quick update, my hair is doing pretty well. I'm wearing kinky twists for the next two months and will do Marley braids right after that. Been on a strict regimen of protective styling with extensions which I plan to keep doing for the rest of the year. I'm really hoping to reach MBL by New Years. I don't plan on using any heat or wearing my hair out longer than a few days between protective styles. Hey it works and it's low manipulation. I hope everyone is where they want to be with their hair goals!
 
Tired the LOC method last night with water, Hair Dew, Apricot seed oil and Qhemet BRBC. My hair has not been this soft in years! I'm definitely adding this to my routine, and expect that I'll gain some extra length due to my hair being more manageable and less tangled & dry.
 
I've been bunning for a while. It works...easy and helps retention. I want to do a twistout tonight or tomorrow. I'm sleepy!
 
I literally cut my post short because I was sleepy last nite. So obviously no twist out. I might try to go to the beauty school around lunch time and get a roller set. Sitting here with AE garlic mask on my scalp...gonna try Hair One for the first time this am.
 
Lol I've done that before where I really had more to say but was so sleepy I just barely made 10 characters lol!

So I finally made my hair grease... I have yet to use it cause I havent washed my hair cause I'm sooooo lazy!!! I'm going to be my own set back soon enough.

I still want to cut it though. I want to do an A-line bob. I think would like it and it'd be enough hair gone that I will want to deal with it again. However that means losing all of my progress.

I dunno :/
 
Hope everyone is enjoying their 4th!

I'm probably going to do a twist out of some sort today. Probably will put it into a bun or a butterfly clip.

I'm pretty sure I'll make MBL by December. I still have a couple inches to go. Thought it'd be sooner, but whatevs...I'm a slow grower. I'll be excited to meet this goal because of course my hair has never been this long before.
 
^^So defined and shiny! I love that headband, too. I need to get on top of my hair accessory game...
