I am really liking this hairstyle... It's perfect for the office... I am kind of playing with my hair right now. This week has not been humid so it's the perfect time to experiment!
My high pony tail is almost waist length so this hair style comes out very interesting... The last piece I wrap around the rest of the swirls loosely. Let little pieces of the front part of my hair frame my face with the part in the middle... It is very stunning... I'll have to get someone to take a picture for me. I am very good at software programming but my hardware skills suck...so I haven't figured out the automatic timer on the camera..

It might be the glycerin/juice if there is not enough moisture in the air it will cause dryness

no, its not that. i ran out of glycerin like 3wks ago and the vitamin store still hasnt gotten any so i've been substituting with HE HH in my spritz. i'm thinking its either the new leave in i'm trying (i usually use HE HH or LTR but because i have skala i was trying that) or i didnt apply all my products evenly lmao

Get well, Candy.
I did a length check yesterday. My hair actually falls into the top of my butt crack when wet and straightened out. It's ever so very slighty longer than before my trim in March. My hair is slowly making it's way down. It's strange how quickly it grows from bra strap to waist then waist to tailbone and just stops.
I'm still wearing the Goody Spin Pins. I've worn them to work and I have a job that requires a lot of movement and these things hold so well. They feel light and as if there's not really anything in the hair but they hold. I never have to take my bun down and readjust. Wearing two buns feels so lightweight:
Headband is from www.ficcare.com . I like the headbands but the prices on the website are a bit much...
ETA: I think I'm at terminal length.
I've been around this length for at least 4 months now.... I am going to back out of this classic length challenge, but I will continue cheering you ladies on.

... I think I'm at terminal length.
Only four months? That probably isn't long enough to determine that you have reached terminal length. My hair barely grew last year (March to December), it only gained back in length what I had trimmed. In December I thought I might be at terminal length, but I have noticed a few strands that have gotten longer since.

Nooo CelinaStarr don't quit.....(I love your hair BTW!)
You may just have to do extra extra care at this point to see growth....
If you feel like it, go for it! Your hair my surprise you! Or maybe wait a few months and try again!
JMHO.

It would be funny if in those few months you weren't focusing on growth, your hair decided to grow and then the next time you checked your length it was at your knees
Hey..ya never know!

celinastarr- you get a "thanks" for the hair porn, as i love hair porn.
BUT YOU GET A FIST SHAKE FOR SAYING YOU'RE AT TERMINAL AND QUITING
4months is too soon to say you're at terminal length. now if you got zero growth in like a yr, then maybe yes. but i'm sure your hair is indeed growing

Don't quit Celina!!
My hair stands still all the time...why do you think it took me ages upon ages to grow my hair this long
We might both be at terminal length, but let's see what will happen this year. It might grow a little...
It wouldn't be a challenge if we already knew we were going to make it.

Thanks for the well wishes.... I went to the Doctor and got some drugs so I am medicated enough to breath and function like normal!
CelinaStarr, please don't pull out of the game and don't feel pressured that your hair must perform... Let your hair do it's thing. We are here to support each other. We know this is uncharted territory for all of us and none of us know what will happen. So we should just have fun along the way and learn from each other.... I am going to put everyone in Part 1 into Part 2 as well. Everyone in Part 2 will also be in Part 3. We are just testing our hair to the limits, whatever that may or may not be... So lets give it a try! We may all be surprised at what happens!
