What will you be doing with your hair for the rest of 2010? Same ol same ol. Braidouts, buns, and ponies. I would like to start flat ironing once a month but I'm not going to do that until I get to my weight goal so it probably won't be until the new year.
Are you in any other challenges? I'm in the ceramides challenge which has done wonders for my hair, WL in '10, APL in '11 (in case I decide to chop in December 11), MBL '12 (natural hair), WL '12 (natural hair)
What's your #1 Hair Goal for the rest of 2010?
My number 1 goal is to get to WAIST LENGTH by December!!!

I guess I should answer my own questions too:
What will you be doing with your hair for the rest of 2010?
protective styling mostly, and one week of straight hair in October as my heat pass, will start twisting again soon too. I may do a trim at the end of the year, I'll decide in October when I see how my ends look while straightened.
Are you in any other challenges?
Curly til Christmas
What's your #1 Hair Goal for the rest of 2010?
GROW GROW GROW! RETAIN RETAIN RETAIN!
Hopefully grow to 3 inches past WL.

What will you be doing with your hair for the rest of 2010? Staying on track with cowashing and castor oil oh and keeping my hair stretched out...esp my ends. I hate SSK's!!
Are you in any other challenges? Spring/Summer cowash 2010, WL 2010, and Summer 2010 No Heat
What's your #1 Hair Goal for the rest of 2010? Just keep it healthy and thick and maintain what I've grown to this point so far and whatever I grow in the future.

What will you be doing with your hair for the rest of 2010? Mostly no heat until it gets too cold for wash n go. Then moving on blow dryer stretches here and there if necessary. I may straighten to check my length depending on my mood. I also want to return to hot oil treatments with castor and cod liver oil. In addition to adding egg yolk to my conditioner. I was seeing progress but got lazy... 
Are you in any other challenges? None that I've stuck to...
What's your #1 Hair Goal for the rest of 2010?
Get back on a solid regimen to gain thickness with health.

Not sure if I want to be full hip length yet, but I'll join.
Current Length: MBL almost touching WL
Regimen: Wash and deep condition weekly. Black tea rinse every wash. PS/Low Manipulation about 95% of the time
Plans: Do what I've been doing because it seems to be working.
Hip Length Date: August 2011 (Just before I plan to leave for law school. If I don't make it, I won't sweat it).

I'd like to join 
Current Length: WL *transitioning
Regimen: cowash weekly, clarify monthly, moisturize with conditioner, water & coconut oil mix and seal; use heat every couple of months; I wear buns generally and sometimes braidouts
Plans: be consistent with my hair care
I want to braid my hair and wear a wig honestly, it's bothersome dealing with two hair types. Exercise, eat healthy, and drink tons of water consistently.
Hip Length Date: Nov 2011
What will you be doing with your hair for the rest of 2010?
same thing, but I'm going to try to be consistent. I'll straighten for my bday in october (the week before will mark my 2 year transition date) and straighten in December probably. If I do end up buying a wig I'll probably wear my hair in a couple of braids underneath that for the most part.
Are you in any other challenges?
WL 2010 but I never check in but I do browse the thread sometimes
What's your #1 Hair Goal for the rest of 2010?
I'd really like to touch hl this year. I've been saying it forever but I want to learn how to braid. my hair always get tangled when I try

For those of us who would like to freshen up on our trimming skills, here's a video of Feye's trimming method for the U cut.... (I also posted this in the HL Challenge 2010
I love this. and right on time too i have some splits that need to go. I'm just so scared....

Usually I'm extremely happy with my self trims, but I was careless in July and didn't straighten and wasn't careful with the positioning of my hands... wish I would have watched this as a reminder 
erplexed (positioning of that ponytail holder or, in my case, the positioning of my hands is crucial)
Do you normally self trim or go to a stylist? Either way, you should be just fine

Goal:Hip length stretched
I'm in!
Current Length: Full MBL (after trim)
Regimen: DC 1x a week on dry hair and moisturise as needed
Plans: Very low manipulation and plenty of moisture. I will also be oiling my scalp with coconut oil. I won't be trimming until I make goal. Lots of protective styling in the form of braid-outs, buns and updos. I actually enjoy my hair out now though.
HL Goal Date: Haven't really thought about it but I would say July 2011 for my birthday but Dec. 2011 will be just fine too!
Plans for the rest of 2010: Lots of moisture and babying and no combing or unnecessary manipulation, no heat either
Other challenges: In my siggy

I think it may be a long shot for me, but I will give it a go.
Current Length: Knocking on MBL's door
Regimen: Cowashing 5-6xs/week, baggying, and steaming once/week
Plans: My shrinkage is starting to hit my shoulders so I am going to step up the PS. Really make sure that I moisture and seal my ends. I'm working mega-tek back into regimen.

What will you be doing with your hair for the rest of 2010?
Bunning and protective styling, but mostly bunning (just created a bunning regimen that will work for me and I plan on following that 90% of the time for the rest of the year). I plan on flat ironing in December (haven't decided whether I'll do it myself or go to a stylist).
Are you in any other challenges?
No. And this is my first challenge.
