I love the blunt cut. So my goal is to keep a nice blunt cut along the way.

You can do it. I have a long torso to. Just think of it this way since you got a long back just think of how much longer your hair will be standing next to someone who has a short torso.LOOOOOOOOOONG ok. I consider myself waist length when it reaches my natural waist line(the smallest area around on my torso). I'm addimg you to the list.

thanks for the encouragement mariposa!:grouphug:
the good thing about having the long torso is
my full bsl is abt the same length as mbl so that is the longest journey
im hoping from now, the length will fly by!
this challenge will force me to really take care of my hair
i already have been more vigilant in moisturizing my ends every night
as opposed to every other night or when i remember
i've been bunning for about 2 weeks now
i want it 2 be long but i wasn't so focused on wsl anytime soon
this will help me visualize (the secret-lol!):superbanana:

Who are you tellin? I started the thread so I have to be on the tip top of the game with my hair. I have been loosley bunning my hair everyday and it stays moist. I got about a half inch of new growth now and I've been observing my hair so closely I can tell you what day it grew(hehe):spinning:.

I'm so sorry this happened to you. How much do you think they will trim off? And I don't think you should drop the challenge. I think you should still be apart of it just with an open mind....you never know what could happen. You still have ten months before the goal. You can still grow your hair 5 inches instead of 6.What do you say?
 
I dunno...i feel so depressed about my hair right now...
I was looking at my nov. 2006 pics, and my hair looks shorter and more damaged than before...i'm going to the salon to get a trim and rollerset tomorrow...i feel like crying right now...:sad:

Count me in! I'm hovering around BSL (siggy is wrong) right now (depending on if I trim soon or not). But since I won't be using MTG anymore, I'm hoping I get there by then.... if not, I don't mind, but a goal will keep me on top of my hair health since I've been neglecting it lately.
 
Yeah I see what you mean. It will grow back and it will be even longer than the first pic by this time next year. Just trim it baby it like you learned how on this site.Just look at it as a lesson learned. Your hair is always growing.Don't be depressed just try to get your mind off of it. It will grow back.
 
thanks for the encouragement...i'll try and baby my hair back...no more weaves or braids...and i dont think I'll be stretching anymore, i'm planning on relaxing every 8 weeks...when I get my trim tomorrow i'll probably be at just above APL...but i'm trying not to stress about it...

Okay, I've been watching this thread and back and forthing about WL as my ultimate goal. I'm grazing BSL now so I've got about another 5-6" to go to WL. Technically, I can retain that in a year so hmmm...yeah count me in...let's do this:yep:. Why not? I'll just go for broke. Hey, the journey is fun anyway with all you ladies for support!

I think I might have seen a challenge like this but I'm not sure.The search future thingy isn't working for me.But anyways I'm on a mission to grow my hair to waist length by the end of summer and I really don't want to go at it alone:nono:. I was wondering if there are some chicas who would like to join me. There are no rules ,this is really your own challenge for yourself....just with me:grin:.At the end of summer I would like to see proof that you made it. Meaning I want to see pictures yall.Thats the only requirement. Who is with me?:circle:

***PS:Ladies you can do it. It's scary for me too as long as we got each others back. And please If one of you guys end up getting into a situation where you feel like to you have to do something like pull out the scissors, stop where you are and come consult us first. I think it could really help prevent set backs and keep everyone on track.***

Here is the list of te girls who will be rockin' waist length in summer '08:
