How do you plan to manage/how did you manage your growth as you reach new lengths?
Frequency of Trims/Dustings?
( I think I will get a trim when I reach full SL, APL, etc. Other than that, self-dusting)
Do you Embrace/Avoid protective styles?
(I will be very careful with bunning, as hairbands and most hairpins will cause breakage. Sometimes my hair may look jacked up, but I will not risk damage to try to beat it into submission)
What is your default styling method? Rollerset/Braidout/Other?
(I tend to do a lot of rollersets, but when possible, I plan to incorporate more of Sylver2's scarf method with a cross wrap for less manipulation)
Products?
(I assume my moisture/protein combo will remain the same. i put a reconstructor and a moisturizer, 50/50 ratio, in a bowl mix it and apply like a relaxer, cover with a cap and DC)
Other tips
(Anything else you think will enhance your chances for length retention)
