BSL/MBL 2015 Challenge

Lol see my avi for my LC. My hair has been stalled for a long time now.

I already ordered a hair analysis to see what's up.

Sent from my Snow White Frost Galaxy S4 using LHCF
 
^ I think I'm finally gonna purchase an analysis next week. I wont be doing a length check this week did it a few weeks ago and was still at the same length and since my new growth is more noticable now i dont wanna attempt trying to straighten it
 
Length checks scare me lol. Count me out :look:

I do need to measure my natural growth tho. I'll do that this wash day.
 
^^^I've been checking my growth lately instead of my retention. I check my roots against my colored hair so far this year my hair has grown between an inch and 1 1/2 inches :yay:

Me too!!!
I have SSK and knots galore and split ends :(

I did a protein treatment followed by a deep conditioner with honey. I air dried 80% or so and then did a blow dry followed by Caruso steam rollers. I pin curled overnight. I like the volume. My fine hair can look flat after too much heat, although I am considering investing in a standing dryer and some rollers.

That looks like you flatironed it. I need to get a set of Carusos.
 
^^ wow you're going to make me pull out my Caruso rollers this weekend. How straight do you get your hair by blow drying it?
 
I was thinking about doing a braidout bun for the weekend, but it really depends on how much energy I have in the morning.
 
Prepooing with Aussie moist 3 minute again. I might be done with v05.

Does anyone use this as a leave in? I love it.
 
I used to use Aussie Moist as a leave in, but once I ran out I didn't buy any more. Now I use HH conditioner as a leave in or Neutrogena silk touch cream.
 
I am under the dryer doing a dc with Kerastase protein conditioner. Once I rinse it out I will do a quick length check.

Joining the challenge. I'm a little past APL however my right side is shorter than my left. I'm PS'ing with wigs until the end of the year to retain all my growth and work on my left temple area.

I'll post a start picture Sunday afternoon since I'll be getting my hair shampooed/conditioned flat ironed for Easter Sunday.
 
OK trying this again. Here's my length check update. Couldn't resist curling my hair so it's not the best way to do a length check but it will have to do for now

For my LC I just measured random pieces of hair. My hair is pretty uneven bc I had cut old heat damage, splits and ssks as needed.

Front: 11"
Crown: 14.5"
Left: 10.5"
Right: 13"
Nape: 12"


I had forgotten how much protein my hair really needs. As in my hair wasn't even rough after an Aphogee tx. I've since done 2 Aphogee 2 step treatments and the breakage has gone way down. I'd been alternating protein and moisture DCs, but I will change that ratio 2:1 from now on. Will henna also to back up the good results.
 
I'm going out of town for Easter weekend and I'm not sure which wig I want to wear... I guess I can bring 2 and switch it up if I need to. If I wasn't so style challenged I would just undo my plaits and wear a wavy updo.
