Classic Length 2010 Challenge Part I

@CelinaStarr, you are absolutely right!

thanks for doing the @grow with the ETA instructions because now i'm trying it and hope it sends you a notice!

we'll see.....

i still don't get the tagged or mentioned buttons or how to tag or mention someone....
 
Thanks CelinaStarr I got a notification but once I clicked it my mention tab was blank :/ This is wierd. I didn't even notice the thanks were reset! That's a bummer :(
Thanks for all of these updates every body!!!

I like this feature new. :grin: I don't really understand the Tag feature though.

I wonder can I @ myself.... @CelinaStarr

ETA: Okay, you can @ yourself, but it's not included in your stats. Did all of you receive Notifications? I didn't but then again I @'ed myself.

I didn't. How strange.

I missed seeing the dislike button. LOL!!!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Neekie, your ponytail is beautiful! I love your curls.
 
Oh! Now I do! It only showed up after I visited this thread. I checked when I first logged on and it didn't say anything up there.

Thanks Celina! :)
 
I finally finished. I read the whole thread through (took me weeks lol!) and I've made up my mind that I would like to join the challenge as a participant.

Is there any way I can be added onto the upcoming Dec 15th CL Part II Challenge list? I think I can make it next year. :)

So confused about these updates. I must be getting set in my ways in my old age. :lol:

I made up a mixture yesterday... aloe vera (the gel-like "juice" kind), wheat germ oil, coconut oil, shea butter, avocado butter and tea tree oil. I put it on my hair and my kids' hair after washing. My son's hair just looks like his regular, moisturized afro. My hair became flat and almost straight. My daughter's hair had the funniest results though - hers looks like an 1980s jheri curl, without the drip. :lol:
 
Hello all,

I have not been been keeping abreast of this thread, I'm bad :spank: but now that I'm hip length finally :cool2: I wanted to check in. I highly doubt I'll make Classic before 12/31/10 :cry3: but it can't hurt to try!

I really want to attach a pic, but with all these changes I cannot figure out how.... seems only if the pic is online? I guess you can't upload from your computer anymore?

So glad to finally find out who was calling my name! LMAO I received the notification but then my happiness was short lived when the message was blank. I wonder if this feature will be fixed or what the purpose of it is.

Anyway I'm under the dryer and enjoying reading all of your posts. I hope to make classic one day! Maybe in 2 years. Right now I'm focused on hip length and hope to get there by next summer.

ETA: Candy828 I tagged you to this thread. I wanted to try out the new feature LOL :yep:

I got the notification. To tag someone you just type in the poster's user name at the top of the page and click submit; I guess it's just notify posters of a particular thread.

There's not really a mention button. You mention a person by doing what you just did: type @ followed by the posters user name.

ETA: @BostonMaria , Somebody tag me too. :lol:

Optimus_Prime , I forgot to mention you. I see you lurking and giving thanks. :lol:

yamilee21, did you use the actual plant? I think I want to try that, but I don't know what to do with the pulp. Hey jheri curl looks without the drip results sound good :yep:

CelinaStarr, thanks for the notification! This is pretty neat :)

I'm not tired of your pretty pictures; I'm tired of having to avoid the temptation of buying hair sticks! Lucky for me my credit card is inaccessibly trapped under some furniture right now, or I might have already ordered some butterfly and flower hair sticks of my own. ;) :lol:
Click to expand...

:lol: (Celina I love looking at hair toys...),

yamilee to keep myself under control, I try to mentally tell myself that I'm "window shopping" whenever I see a thread with beautiful hair toys :lachen:

threads that tempt me are threads showing beautiful flat ironed shiney hair, and beautiful hair toys :love2:

:laugh:Same deal here too Spring!!....i was thisclose to buying all the cute hairtoys that Celina has been showing us and I had to stop myself from even buying ONE....cause i know once i start i can't stop so i'll just wait until i have enough money to really splurge on hair toys....i have to get my car fixed!:grin:
 
Momo your ponytail is SO beautiful!!!

I'm trying to decide when i'll do another length check....October or just wait til December 31??....For some reason the 31st would just be more meaningful bc i get to see what my hair length looks like at the end of the year!:D

No, I learned my lesson about using the actual plant - it makes whatever you make spoil super-fast. I use Lily of the Desert Aloe Vera Gel, which doesn't spoil mixtures or turn them funny colours like the stuff from the actual plant. I only use the plant for immediate cuts, burns, etc.

As for the jheri curl look, :lol:, I can't guarantee those results on anyone but my daughter. Her hair is "special" ;) - super-fine weightless strands, curls that start out super-loose and end super-tight, and shrinkage that takes her from mid-back to ear-length. But the mix is good for general moisturizing - I haven't had to add anything to my hair, or my son's, since we washed on Saturday morning. :)
 
I just tagged a bunch of people, or so the button said when I clicked it.

What does it mean and do exactly?

I guess I will find out. I hope it's nothing bad.
