Feeling Really Good About My Hair Right Now!!

[Sianna]

Oops!! Double Post!!

I just wanted to spread the encouragement to anyone who might need it!

I am feeling really encouraged about my hair right now. I was looking back at the pictures I've taken over the months since I've gone natural and was really pleased with the growth I've managed to retain! All my life my hair has been short, and I mean REALLY short, but now I'm starting to believe that, not only can I make it to the APL that I've set my heart on, but maybe I can even grow beyond that. Time will surely tell...

Anyway, I did my BC on 01-25-10. Here's what my hair looked like.

And here's how it looks today.

It's still not as long as I'd like it to be, but I've definitely made some progress!

What I'm most pleased about is the fact that the back of my hair is just as long, (if not slightly longer) than the front and the top! Normally, I have SEVERE breakage in the back, but no more! What's more encouraging still, is the fact that my hair isn't breaking off like it normally does around this time of year! Before I went natural and started taking proper care of my hair, it would break off every fall/winter. It was awful!

Now my hair is thriving and I am more optimistic than ever that I can have long, healthy hair!

Yes m'am your hair is growing nicely. I had the same surprise with the back of my hair. As a natural my nape flourishes--I love it! Congrats and keep up the good work.

Thanks so much for the encouraging words ladies! I was just really feeling my hair today and wanted to share!

I'm so excited about my progress so far, and I REALLY look forward do seeing even more in the near and distant future!

CONGRATS TO YOU....LOOKING GOOD. I need to take some pics and truly track my progress via photos versus my homemade length check shirt that I've drawn marks on my shirt in an effort to track growth.

Congrats! Your hair looks so healthy.
I'm loving my hair right now also. I BC in Oct. 2009 to a caesar
and One year later I have healthy thick beautiful coils and a spot that was damaged
by the perms has completely grown in. : )

I couldn't help BUT to take pics! I've been doing it since the day I did the BC so I'm able to track my progress from the very beginning! It's a great way to keep yourself motivated! Especially when you feel like you're at a stand still. Just look back and see how far you've come!

Congrats! Your hair looks so healthy.

Thanks! I had the same problem! I had a spot at the crown of my head that I feared would never grow back in! Now it's thriving right along with the rest of my hair! I'm loving it!

I know right! I'll admit that I'm still having a bit of a problem with breakage, but it isn't major by any means. Not only that, but it doesn't seem to be interfering with my over all length retention so I'm a happy camper!

Thanks ladies!!
