Have You Gotten Your 3 Inches?

[ebzonix]

no i dont think i have, seeing how i dont have no sure way of checking my length

 

[RubyWoo]

Nope. I've received 2-2.5 inches of growth and retained all of it because I haven't trimmed yet. I do plan to trim 0.5" next weekend. The reason I believe that I didn't get my 3 inches is because my diet has been terrible. In the past(prior to LHCF), when my diet and exercise was on point, my hair grew relatively quickly. The next six months I'm focusing on my getting back on track with exercising regularly and a good diet.

nope due to this ..... http://www.longhaircareforum.com/showthread.php?t=224497

im keepin it weaved up until december hopefully i cant report back with some better results

 

[DivaD04]

nope! unlike being relaxed, i only obtained 1.5-2 inches since january. but when i was relax for some reason i feel like my hair just sprout like weeds in a garden. i cow daily or every other day if i'd forget, i stopped using grease, sometimes oils but rarely, i dc every 2-3 days, add protein on a need basis but mainly moisture. i don't use heat...i only keep braids up for 1-2 weeks max....maybe i'm still on the slow boat to china with the back to africa movement...this kinky stuff...huh oh well, i'll try another 6 months.

I *think* I might have. I stretched the other day, and almost fainted. I don't measure, but judging by the pics, it looks like I got okay growth.

With that said, I still have like 4 in. to go until I reach APL.

 

[Lanea87]

I got mine, pics will be up to show in like 2 weeks. Oh it will also be my 1st anniversary, so I am happy to see where I will be......

 

[Extremus]

Yep. I get 0.5in every month in the crown and back of my hair

 

[EMJazzy]

I believe my hair did grow 3 inches in the last 6 months but I won't know for sure til I flatiron.

maybe i'm still on the slow boat to china with the back to africa movement...this kinky stuff...huh .

 

[Foxglove]

I think so. I'll know for sure when I take out these braids if all this NG is slippage or growth

 

[Caramela]

I'm pretty sure I did. I haven't trimmed once and I've been using MN for a few months as well as taking Biotin. My goal is 6 inches this year so I am hoping for another 3 or more by Christmas which will put me nicely right at WL

 

[ravenmerlita]

I probably grew about 3 inches. But too much flat iron usage and handling earlier this year took 1/2 to 1 inch. I'm glad for the 2 inches though because there were years when I retained 0 inches (and even went backward).

 

[DivaD04]

EMJAZZY I'm serious girl, this stuff grows slow + i got that bush hair! this shish can get some serious kinks! but it's all good, i still love me.

 

[Lucky's Mom]

WOW! I have no Idea. I thought it best not to focus on it....I guess I should............

 

[Son26]

I had it, but my stylist cut it off when she gave me a "trim."

 

[charmtreese]

I have been doing some serious trimming! I'll be darn if I do all of this hair care stuff and have raggedy ends!!!! I know I have at least 2 inches even with the trimming but I will not be able to tell for sure until after my touch-up next month.

 

[donewit-it]

I don't think I did. And I'm quite disappointed considering I thought that I was a speedy hair grower. This coming weekend, I plan to straighten my hair and really tell by comparing pictures taken at the end of last year.

I think ever since I started detangling my hair I'd lose what grew. I haven't had a trim since last June and I just recently started babying my hair with DC and more frequent CWs

 

[FAMUDva]

Not sure... I'm 6 months post and don't plan to flat iron until August possibly September. I'll know then

 

[Neala21]

I didn't retain all of mines it started breaking in April due to heat damage which I am in the process of correcting but from my my pictures I know I retained at least 2 of my growth and it broke of about 1 inch after April.

Dec 2007

April 2008 (You can see that it started breaking and the longest point is 3")

Recent 2008 (Early June)

 

[Determined22]

I think I retained about 2 inches after a dusting.

[vestaluv1]

I know my hair has grown... haven't measured though and really need to wait until I straighten my hair in a fortnight.
