[msdevo]

Its about that time ladies!! Are you guys ready??? I am so siked.

 

[MJ]

I'm withdrawing from this challenge .

 

[TrustMeLove]

I already joined this challenge, but I need to figure out how I am going to track my progress. But, this is my first length challenge and I've been here a few years. Well a large part of that was when I had a relaxer...But, I wan't to get to APL forreal forreal. No joke.

I have a regimen in terms of process, but that might all change since I have a length goal now and may be implementing some growth aids. My regimen now is fine for managing my hair, making sure it is moisturized and limits tangles. But, I know I could possibly take it up a notch to help reaching my goals faster and easier.

So I will post that info before the 1st of the year with a picture once I figure it all out.

I guess since I didnt make APL in 2008 Ill join this challenge...I know I woulda made it this year if it wasnt for that darn middle nape and I refuse to even it out AGAIN only for the left and right sides to be APL while the middle is SL. I dont have a set regimen but Im gonna try my best to stay away from micros. I should have some kind of starting pics posted b4 the year runs out.

I'd like to join this challenge. I have no regiment set at this time, working on it now. I am NL now and am looking forward to getting to APL, my mom would be so proud. She reminds me on a regular how my hair use to be before she let me perm it andtake care it myself.

kedda0720pooh, My prayers are with you and your hubby. That would be a nice surprise for him.

Thanks for the support. Happy hair growing!

i dont have a real regimen other then alternate between OCT & MT nightly and moisturize each day. also try to wash once a week. i'll be in braids for quite awhile and take it down every two weeks. i doubt i'll make APL but..maybe i'll get close.. =)

I would like to join this challenge as well.

My reggie:
-I am in the bun for growth challenge as well, so I keep my hair in a bun 7 days per week.
-I wash and dc once per week & air dry
-I put Cantu leave in condish on all my ends daily and put it in a pony and pull it under with cut up knee highs until I can just twist and pin w/bobbies then smooth my edges with Cantu pomade.
-Texlax 5-8 min as needed, around 6 weeks
-Self trim as needed (I think I will nix the trims for a year as well)
-Wear a satin scarf EVERY night

 

[Tzarina]

Can I join? I don’t have a starting picture yet and I've yet to finalise my regiment (my shedding has started back up again so I need to figure out what went wrong.)

 

[vnaps]

(same post on bootcamp thread)
Changing my regime a bit....
so...i've just come from dusting my ends and have decided to do so after every texlax.......hope that doesn't clash with the bootcamp rules....

i think i'll try stretch out next texlax for longer than 12 weeks because i want to switch to lye....i've always used dark and lovely no lye.....used vitale for sensitive scalp no lye on saturday (which is the first i've ever changed a relaxer) but my hair is so dry erplexed so am going to take another plunge and go lye . but i'm so scared!!!!
