Ladies!!! Just checking in...I'm not normally a bandwagon person, but I was looking for a new hair, skin, and nail vitamin so Nioxin is what I chose...I'm hoping for at least reinforced growth...we'll see!

i've been wearing my hair straight since the cut... its been easy for me.
if it wasnt for the fear of heat damage and messing up my ends or the laziness of not wanting to do a roller set, i'd wear my hair straight all the time. i bet my retention would be even better!!!

thanks so much, i really just meant the ends. In the braid i purposely fluffed out the bottom because other wise the braid gets really small.
thank you, i think your hair looks great too.
lol. I want to cut them off. I keep holding them and thinking I can't wait for you to be gone but cutting them would put me right at bsl and i don't want that.
and i know it's too true.
lol I know i've

I was thinking of it but I will most likely trim up to wl in june and I don't think i'll reach tl by december if I do.

I'm lovin everyone's length checks!
Just wanted you ladies to know that I won't be posting any length checks because I'm not chasing a length anymore. I've been maintaining mbl since Thanksgiving to gradually get rid of my relaxed ends. I remember Mook saying that transitioning is much easier when you trim instead of trying to retain, so that's what I'm doing. I have about 18 months left of maintaining this length, unless I get a growth spurt or decide to chop.
So good luck ladies. I'm still going to be here participating and rooting for you on the side lines.....and searching for hair porn with no shame

Well I will check in. Its hard to show layers progress in photo's so I will report that my upper canopy longest was 25 to 26 inches in Jan. That is just past waist for me. My recent measurement of canopy hair longest is 26 to 28 inches. That is That is just at hip for me. There are still other shorter layers in the canopy and I will continue on this challenge until my shortest past hip. A while from now.
Now to keep things protected and moving along to catch up with the lonely longest ends.
My canopy is my 4a hair and it is so delicate and the hardest to keep moistured. It also seems that that was hit hardest with the shedding.
Also reporting that there are no splits to report. The shorter hairs are my biggest concern keeping them soft and with slip to prevent them from wrapping around there longer siblings.
If the improvement is noticable on film I will post a photo in May. I finally learned how to post a photo in the thread. Yes I am slow.
Keep growing every one

Thanks to Lita and Candy,
My braid regimine is coming along. I took some tips from The tightly curly lady Terry also, however I was not doing the curl separating thing.
So thank you for the help. Detangle is so easy now I wonder sometimes if I am forgetting anything when I am done so fast with my hair.
I washed and conditioned my braids last night and that was it. I may let them out today or go til tomorrow to do a detangling. Then I will wash in another two days.

GUess what Ladies.... DRUM ROLL
After 9 and a half months A sister GOT HER RELAXER :woohoo: :woohoo:
I also got a cut. So I am no longer past waist. I am MBL, which is fine with me. I have a nice cut and can't wait to post some pics.
I am super excited, but most likely won't make HL this year which is Okay with me. I don't really know if I want that right now.
I am still staying in this challenge. Don't know how much further for WL or HL right now as my hair is still wrapped up in a doobie

Congrats! You sound super excited!
