Hey ladies, went ahead and relaxed as I couldn't take all the ng. Eventhough maternity has rendered my waistline nearly invisible, I am using my elbows as a guideline and I'm happy to say it looks like I am WL :grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin:

Unfortunately, my ends are looking pretty thin and ragged, IMO, so I will probably be getting a trim of a couple of inches come December :) Hope everyone is doing well and happy hair growing!!!!

Congrats, your hair looks WSL to me! Very healthy & thick.

I think we are all getting anxious to trim. As for me, I know I need to take a couple inches off... so I will be doing that in Sept. IDK if I'm still gonna be WSL after the trim but we'll see. I fell off with my hair care these past few weeks but I'm getting back on track. My hair is really dry, probably due to my a/c being on 24/7.

congratulations on making WSL Onejamifan :band2::dance7::congrats:
 
Congrats to all the ladies that have made it!! I really dont think I will make it by the end of September..maybe December...I am gonna keep the faith that I will get close at least.
 
I am on pace to hit waist on exactly Sept 22nd (first day of fall) I know that is funny but I am an inch away. The bottom of my hair should touch. So I wont add any more photos until then. I want to be shocked. If I don't make it then my ultimate goal is on Election Day to make it.
 
I am about 2-3 inches from my natural waist after my latest trim. I doubt if I will make it by Sept but I am still happy and I know I will hit it by the end of this year. :yep: I still plan on posting my pics at the end of the challenge. Q

WL is not happening for me this year (I don't think) but I'll be very happy with MBL:yep:!

Girl I am in the same boat. Hoping I see MBL December 08. This slow growing has taught me a thing or two about patience and just letting the hair do what it do and being satisfied that it is closer today than it was yesterday. :yep:
 
Hi ladies, I'm switching from participant to cheerleader! :grin:

I don't think I will be making it by the end of this month. I'm protective styling until around Thanksgiving to focus on my ends and overall health of my hair. Hopefully I will be near or at WL by then.

CONGRATS to all those who are already WL, and those who will be quite soon!
 
I will not be successfully completing this challenge. My hair is actually shorter now than when I started :lachen:. Before I was a good BSL now I in between APL and BSL (All pics are in my Fotki).I had way too many trims. I have been afraid of getting split ends and straight OD’ed with trimming. I need another several months to a year to get to WL. I am not going to trim again unless there is a drastic need to and there shouldn’t be since I rarely use heat and protective style most of the time. Oh well :ohwell:.

I’m happy for those who did make it though :yep:. Congrats!
 
Looking great ladies!! Congrats to all who made it! :happydance: I didnt make it by this summer. I am sure I will be there at the end of this year or spring for sure of 09.

I agree.

I don't think I made my goal either but I will take pics without a shirt on and draw a line at my natural waist so see how far I got. This has been fun and I can't wait to see everyone's pics. Q

It has but I have a long torso but who knows, I may be closer than I think. I can't wait. :yay: At least I don't have the itch to cut it again anymore. :look: Q
 
Can't wait to see everyone's pics! I dunno if I'm gonna have mine up on time cuz I've been sick the past couple weeks. I barely feel like getting out of bed, let alone leaving the house to get my hair done. :ohwell: We'll see what happens.

TEE IS WAISTLENGTH!!! DON'T BELIEVE HER Y'ALL!!! LOLOL

I know she is WL. Tee I know exactly how you feel.I feel the same way about my hair. My hair is at my waist but it doesn't seem long and since I have newgrowth I have to stretch it to show where it really lays. I wish my hair was heavy sometimes because of this. I think I will be truly satisfied if I grow my hair a couple more inches past WL.Not to mention I have a few layers that stop at the bottom of my bra strap. So its more thick there than at the bottom.I would have to cut off 3 inches to be realy satisfied with the thickness of my ends. I will prolly grow it 6 more months though and then cut it. I might just grow it to hip. Maybe it will feel long then:lachen:.
