Do You Remember Surge 14 Hair Revitalizer?????

Ugh... This is basically just me ranting but omg I went to my Hair Cuttery yesterday for my regular trim and asked the girl to take off a half inch. She said she had to "even it out a little" and my ends looked better but...when I got a good look at my hair at home, it looked shorter than it should've. At least an inch and a half shorter. :angry2: I don't need any setbacks darn it, I'm trying to get BSL within the next few months but seems like I'll always be chasing it at this point! Sometimes I wonder if some of these stylists are jelly that your hair is longer than theirs so they cut off more than you wanted!

Needless to say, I am not looking forward to my December check in anymore. Lol OK end rant. :biggrin:

So sorry this happened, this is why I'm learning to self trim. Afraid of this very issue.
 
I'm noticing that the hairs along my hair line that normally break and grow slowly are really thriving. This past weekend when I was twisting my hair, I was surprised at how much longer these hairs have gotten. I'm now willing to comment to using this product for the entire year of 17'.
 
How do you apply to your lashes?

I haven't tried it on my lashes...I do not have an applicator brush. Moreover, I'm super sensitive about things being close to my eyeball.

I put a dab of cream on my index finger and rub it gently across each brow.
 
Hey Ladies..

I got my 2 Bottles of spray and 2 creams! I have been using them for a week. My hair is corn rolled into a beehive for my wigs. I love spraying and then applying the cream to my edges and eyebrows. I have no itching associated with using the product. I am 2 month and 3 weeks post giving birth. I will be focusing on my edges since they have been recovering from my first pregnancy 18 moths ago.

Hey Daina. I figured it would be best to have another person (pro) do it since they have a better view of all your hair. I might've exaggerated a little (was so used to the extra length I was beginning to see before it got cut) but it wasn't no .5" I would say just over an inch. I just don't wanna do a crappy job trimming my own...however I was thinking of something a bit safer than scissors. Isn't there a trimmer I can buy?

@SweetestChick, I'm new to trimming my own hair as well but rather than catch a case over someone else I want to learn. Next year I will only do one professional trim and will have a mirror in my hands watching every snip my BFF makes. I'm not sure on your trimmer question as I've never used one.
 
I'm so hurt. I just measured that short front area yesterday and it's approx 13.5 inches now. I made the above post back in early September and we're now in late Nov. Either its breaking off or not growing :(. I'm so upset about this. I haven't been using any growth aid consistently.
I could almost cry :cry3:. In 2 and a half months I should have retained an inch at least.
This is scaring me. I believe its breakage because the rest my hair seems to be growing rapidly.
or could I have follicle damage in that area? I'm so upset right now.
I just returned to say that the section I was upset about has reached 14 inches. The growth seems rather sudden.
The only change I've made is to begin use of Neutrogena T Sal shampoo because of serious oil and buildup issues . Now I'm wondering if the buildup was inhibiting my growth. My hair has been feeling different and looking thicker and healthier since I began to use it only about a couple of weeks ago. It's almost like washing with a conditioner. I think the acid is relaxing the cuticles.
My scalp is also doing significantly better. I have to keep on top of my scalp because if I don't I develop so much build up. It's gross and I think its harming my follicles.
 
I used the cream last night. I wasn't applying diligently before, but I'm going to do better going forward because I want to achieve some goals next year. I'm only going to apply once a day.

I still have the majority of my first spray bottle, a full bottle, and most of my cream. I think I like the cream a little more than the liquid so I'm gonna buy some more jars soon. I love that this isn't an oil based product so it doesn't weigh my hair down, and it doesn't smell weird. I can't believe I was walking around smelling like matches when I was using mtg.

i measured again and it looks as if I'm still 13.5 in that spot :nono:
i'm thinking maybe i wasn't measuring correctly to begin with so maybe that hair is growing just fine. I examined the ends and clearly thats where my issue is. The ends in that area are in bad shape so i think its just breaking off as it grows out.
i just have to be patient.

@ShredsofDignity, have you stopped using heat? Biggest game changer for me...I know it's hard but start with mini goals like once per month. Then stretch longer as you get used to limited heat.
