How many inches do you need to get to APL?
I don't want to be discouraging, just realistic. It looks like from your siggy pic that you need about 2-3inches for the longest part of your hair to reach APL. Can you grow and retain that much by october? That's only 3 months away.
I think it's really important to set realistic goals so that you don't disappoint yourself. And I don't know that wearing your hair down is stopping your retention, but if it is then that makes October seem all the less likely to me.
I have grown and retained that much hair in that amount of time growing from BC to NL then NL to SL. It just doesn't seem to be working for SL to APL. The hair is growing.... I start feeling NG from 2 weeks post relaxer and I have at least 1.5 inches when I relax. As I said I already cut off 2 inches between Oct. and April because my ends looked horrible.
Well then I'm with everyone else, wearing your hair down is probably the issue. Either protect your ends or switch to super moisturizing and strengthening products. That way your ends will be less likely to get dried out or broken from daily wear and tear. You should probably moisturize and seal more often as well if you're going to wear your hair down.
i put the rollers in my damp hair and in the morning its almost dryI guess I up moisturizing to at least 5x a week instead of 2 to 3x. I would rollerset but I don't have a hood dryer and I don't have time to airdry with rollers. ....hmm maybe I can dry with a blow dryer.....
I gotta do something to get this hair on the right path.
I can do that if I'm by myself of if SO is already asleep at nighti put the rollers in my damp hair and in the morning its almost dry
then i get my blow dryer place it on high and hold the rollers 2-4 inches from my hair. then when i feel its dry i wait 5 minutes and then take the rollers out. it leads to a bouncy finish
forget about SO for nowI can do that if I'm by myself of if SO is already asleep at night
forget about SO for nowits all about your progress. pls dont let him get in the way of you getting to apl and beyond. rollers are very durable even at night you'll be fine and they shouldnt come out
I'm 5'9"
I thought I'd be APL by now but I gotta wait longer
You and me both. I must have a giraffe neck or something because APL looks super far on me from the back compared to other members pictures.
I feel like I've been SL for a very long time!! On with the next phase already
