Can you grow 3 inches of hair in 4 months?

Thanks ladies this thread has gotten me fired up too... off to moisturize, seal will oil, and twist up with a octopus clip
 
This thread is realy making me wanna get strict with my hair game....
Its on and poppin now :grin:

I agree-many times just being on the board browsing and coming across a thread like this makes me get up and mix my protein and nutrient shake and get to sipping. It's very encouraging when everbody chimes in with positive thoughts and practical tips.
 
lol thanks WhipEffectz!!!!join anytime girl. :grin: And Curlidiva you so right it can be done but the problem is we are not willing to sacrifice. and lately i used too much heat while at the beginning i did a year with no heat, no poo and the hair always covered. But i did slip and wear my hair out everyday forgetting that air dries the hair out. Just by experience and watching my hair strives while it was in protective styles (braided styles like cornrows under weaves work better for me but buns are excellent as well), baggy method, twinlab amino fuel and many many things like very low to no manipulation and letting the hair do its thing while it thrives covered coupled with an excellent diet rich in sulfur, protein and aminos and moisturizing the hair, vits will make your hair thrive overnight!!!!!!!! BUT IT DOES TAKE WORK LIKE ARE WE WILLING TO HIDE OUR HAIR FOR A WHILE. IT was hard for me cause lately i just wanted to enjoy my hair and left it out for a long time and broke my ends:wallbash:so i m back to what works i m so glad its the fall season and winter coming, for me it will be just weaves and wigs with cornrows, back to baggy method, pills, excellent diet cause i did slip and i know what my hair is capable so back to the lab lol but you have to find the right measure so you still look good so for me braids and weaves or even wigs will be the answer. I need to get my stash back and keep with a winning formula cause it does wor:yep:
I am going to follow this advise. This will be my offical Ekomba Hide Your Hair Challenge. Excellent advice!!
 
I think it's totally possible too. The only time I notice a real growth spurt is when I do cardio at the gym at least 3 times a week.
 
Last fall/late summer I was taking PP Biotin 5000mcb a day and definitely saw major progress. I added taking 2 of the Nioxin vitamins a day too, but don't know if that really made a difference. I posted a picture in the photo galleries where I tried to show my new growth after about 1.5 months. I got lazy and stopped taking them in the winter, but got my hair flat ironed late April and it was BSL. I'll start taking the Biotin again since I still have a bunch and will report back in a month on my progress. Sorry forgot to mention that I got a trim last February- Hadn't been taking care of my hair at all other than the vitamins and he cut about 1.5 inches off.

My hair grows extremely fast! So, I believe my hair grows an inch if not 3/4in a month. Im very irresponsible with taking my supplements too
 
I got 3 inches in 4 months last summer.
But this summer?:nono: Just my regular ol' 1/3 inch.
Honestly, I'm not even sure if I got that.:ohwell:
I'll no for sure when I update at the EOM.
Either way, I know it can be done.
Good luck!
 
I just did. I have three inches of NG in MOST of my hair (3.5 in some places like where my hair is 3b and about 2.75 in in others where my hair is 4b)
. I actually think the curlier my hair is the faster it grows... and the kinkier hair..., unfortunately grows slower...

Anyway, all of my NG is from when I started transitioning on April 22nd, so thats 4 months with an average ng length of 3 inches, so yea, its definitely possible, and I didn't start taking hair pills until like a few weeks or a month ago.
 
It actually did!

I got a little over 2.5 inches, not quite 3. ( i'm not complaining)

But I still made APL by December 31st. (that's my APL picture in my avatar).

Now i'm on to BSL by June.

Alright now I'm jumping back on the bandwagon. I want BSL by the time June comes around. Where's my essential oils and Nioxin... back at it. My diet sucks lately- no appetite. MisterMan thinks I've been depressed too... :ohwell:

ita. i agree with the suggestion of eating a lot of protein-rich foods. i went through a period of eating some type of fish for lunch/dinner nearly everyday plus two eggs for breakfast and that was the time my hair was the grew the longest it had been before. i also coupled that with protective styling though. however, prior to that time i PS'd anyway and my hair never grew like it did back then.
