Why am I funny? You mean in the vid or just in general
Okay thanks for checking ladies. I really don't see it. Maybe if I reach HL I'll finally think I'm WL.
Tomayto, tomahto. You'll definitely be beyond wl when you reach hl so, let's do this hip thang, shall we?

What does the Henna treatment do? I've seen many posts on it but what are the benefits?

You are funny because you refuse to claim the length that you honestly are!!!
You are WL...Perhaps, you are getting WL confused with HL, no? Cause otherwise, I don't get it!
I take that back...I do get it, I guess it's just funny seeing someone else sound like how I sound

Girl I don't know what's wrong w/me. I just got a new prescription and everything so it's not my vision LOL (I'm serious though I did).

Henna is a strengthening conditioning treatment that makes hair thicker
(within your own hairtype of course) and stronger less prone to splits and SSKs and more manageable, you have to DC with a creamy moisturizing conditioner afterwards cause some people have dryness issues with henna, I don't have any problems with it, I love it. Keeps me from getting tons of splits so less trims and I keep more length. Actually I use cassia now, it's colorless henna. HHG

Ok, well I just finished my vid and in the vid put that my hair is around wl or slighty above after you talked about me so bad on here
The length shots start at 1:08 in the video.
In the 2nd pic I have shrinkage though because it was a week after I flat ironed.

Ms Lala you have some gorgeous hair! And yes you are waist length. My hair is about the same length as yours.

It sounds good to me, I didnt really mind not having think hair because I know its a lot harder to manage, but my hair seems to be prone to splitting that makes me want to test it. I usually use moisturizers daily, so I know that shouldnt be a problem.
Trying to find new ways to keep my hair from splitting.
Thank you.

same here. i'm lazy. its cold (don't wanna air dry). so instead, i'm sitting with tangled hair. i can feel the tangles at the roots. my hair needs water. BAD. but i'm just sitting here...on LHCF, droolin over others hair, neglecting mine. hopefully it doesn't rebel because i've been lazy with it since...Sept(?)
i have no idea what to do with it. i really don't. i'm almost scared to do anything with it. so i just leave it alone. but i do that too much and feel like its going to hamper any retention.
....wow, do i sound conflicted!

I am going to DC and rollerset my hair today for Christmas Eve. I think twice before doing my hair now because I have to be under the dryer for 90 minutes. I used to go back and forth between curly and straight but I can't keep cowashing this WL hair every day it's just too much work now.
Having a steamer helps so much tho. I steam and my shed hair is almost non-existent. I need to do more bunning this winter though.
I hate complaining about my hair, I feel like I'm being ungrateful. I underestimated the work involved having all this hair. I still think my hair is the bomb.com LOL

Ladies, I really do FEEL your pain...And you don't sound ungrateful, you sound real...I mean- both of your hair is BEAUTIFUL
but it's still WL and that's a lot of hair to undertake...I think that's why I'm so underwhelmed about doing my hair because I have to dedicate at least 3 to 4 hours (incorporating a pre-poo, wash, DC, and rollerset/dry)...Ugh...I am going to take dad to the doctor and then when I get back...Umma get on it, promise

I'm backing out of this challenge since I didn't make MBL this year like I hoped. If my protective styling pays off, then I could be WL by the summer. If so, then I'll be aiming for HL by December.
I know it's sad but you can make WL, just keep on doing what works. Maybe you'll even be able to pass WL I mean you have 12 whole months, a year is a long time esp if you retain every inch. HHG

Finally getting use of my wigs and phony ponies! I've been wearing this since Thursday. I think I'll switch up my styles weekly. Did you end up washing your hair?....I'm gonna be honest ladies....I can't visualize HL on me right now....but I don't plan to straighten again until next Winter so maybe I'll have a nice surprise after hiding my hair for so long. I made a little inspiration pic in paint to help me visualize so maybe I'll start looking at that everyday lol
