I just added a picture of the back of my hair, if you want to check it out. My hair went from chin lenght to brastrap in a year and 7 months. But then my old stylist over processed it and it came out in clumps...so I started over and grew it back in about the same time sans braids...then I got sick of it and cut it...again. Now I'm growing it, AGAIN, lol. I think the fun for me is growing my hair, not having it long...cause once I reach my goal, I enjoy it for about 6 months, get sick of it, then chop it off. I guess my goal this time around is my waist. I hope to be there in 1.5-2 years.
As far as my regime goes, here it is:
My regime:
1. Wash, deep condition, blowdry and flat iron once a week. Do conditioner washes every other day once I start working out again. I plan to clairify every third week of the month, and use protein every 4th week. I'm planning to use the same shampoo for 2-3 months apart from the weeks where I clairify and reconstruct.
2. Scalp massages every other night for 5-15 minutes
3. Tie hair down nightly with a satin scarf
4. Wear a protective style at least 4 days a week
5. Get relaxers every 6 weeks and take monthly pics to track progress.
