BSL/MBL 2015 Challenge

I wish this hair journey had a fast forward button. I would get to Mbl and then take it from there. If you could hit fast forward what length would you skip to?

I would skip to TBL so I could cut off all of the damaged hair and be MBL.

Wl in back. Armpit edges in front, midback sides, crown Apl.

Sent from my Snow White Frost Galaxy S4 using LHCF
 
I moisturized earlier today in sections with Neutrogena silk touch. I just sealed with some argan oil and cross wrapped my hair. I usually don't seal until week 2 of my blowout, but it is cold this week and I want to protect my hair.
 
Right now, right here, I'd be full MBL/grazing WL with long layers in a U shape. I expect to be there in less than 2 years though!
 
I just rubbed some castor oil on my edges. I read that it can help with regrowth...Postpartum shedding really thinned my edges especially in the middle. This is my before pic

I will update in a month or so if I see progress

Castor oil is awesome if you're consistent and not heavy handed.
 
I sure hope it works. I need to use it on these eyelashes too. My lashes are so short and thin. My kids all have long lush lashes. I got the short end of the stick with my genes (pun intended).

Im seriously about to put some castor oil on my eyelids :lol:

I have heard really good things about using silk amino acids in mascara for eyelashes.
 
Today is my last wash day before I relax. I clarified with ORS Creamy Aloe. Now I'm DCing with silicon mix, silk amino acids, JBCO, EVCO and ORS Replenishing Conditioner. I'll let you know how it turns out.

I didn't realize how much I liked Silicon mix until I was down to my last scoop. I used to cowash with it when I wore wash and gos.

Silicon Mix and ORS Replenishing Pack will always be my staples. I kind of want a slightly stronger protein but I'm hoping the SAA can help with that.

I can't wait to see your relaxer results strandedhhj! Do you self relax?

I'm super excited! I've been taking better care of my hair these last few weeks so I'm hoping for good results.

I don't self-relax, not that skilled yet. My Godfather does hair professionally so I'm going to him. I think I could use a slight trim but I'm so tired of cutting my progress.

Prettymetty be careful putting castor oil near your eyes. it may irritate them

It's so nice to have a stylist in the family that you trust. Believe it or not no one in my family does hair :nono: One of my white inlaws does, but I think I'll pass. She wouldn't know what to do with these type 4 kinks

My mom also does hair but not professionally. I'm tender-headed so I have to be careful whose chair I sit in. I feel like I could trust a white person for a cut MAYBE a color but apart from that?? Nah!
 
I've been going to the same stylist for 6 years. She's white and she always does a great job coloring my hair. I was going to a different lady when I wore my hair curly. She did a good job too and she was also white. To me a cut and color can be done by anyone. It's the styling I'm wary about - which is why I just style my hair myself. Last time I let a stylist flat iron my hair (and she was black btw) my hair in the back stayed straight even after washing. I had to cut off about 2-3 inches.
 
I have gotten my hair colored by white stylists before with no damage, but I'm with yall. I'm afraid to get a style or blowout from them. I will stick with my Dominicanas
