Hip Length Challenge 2010

Good news, what did you do to counter act the damage?

lots of dc'ing, moisture, and protein, and just letting it rest :) once all the breakage grows out it'll be like non-of this ever happened.

sucks though because of all the breakage i have to use extra aloe vera gel to stop the front of my hair from sticking up

At least your hairs making a comback from this. Aloe vera is the universal healer it should help repair your hair fast and it's been growing at a fast rate. I can't believe a hair product that's not a chemical relaxer or perm could do this to hair, I won't under estimate any regular products anymore.

well i know for sure it was an allergic reaction+not enough slip. on thursday i too like a pea sized amount of that cond and rubbed it on my wrist, let it sit for a bit then rinsed. within 20 min my wrist was irritated and felt dry and itchy

so i think that's what i'll do for now on. when i'm considering a new cond i will go to the store, put it on my wrist and wait a day. if all is well i will go back and get it :) that should work, right?

That's a good idea, that's always on the hair color packages and stuff do the test 1st before you use it on yourself.
 
Hey ladies, is there an official length between waist and hip for me to use as a goal? or is HL the next one?

I feel like HL is the longest stretch for me since I won't be reaching it until a year from now (at best)

MOMO - Glad your hair is bouncin back!!
 
@ whimsy
no I don't think there is an inbetween length
once you pass wl I guess just say Passed wl, wl + 1 or grazig hl
If you want to be that specific cause for some it's a short distance for others it's more than 2 inches

I call that in between stage purgatory LOL
Whimsy, I'll probably make hip length next summer too
 
for me, i think hl and wl is about 3-4 inches :( ITS GONNA TAKE FOREVER! so i'll be hanging out in purgatory for a bit lmao. i'm hoping to be there buy oct/nov actually. i think that's a realistic time frame baring any serious setbacks

Girl I'll be in purgatory right along with ya and for a looong time.
I'm prayin for a growth spurt this summer and next, cuz I've got 5 inches from waist to hip :(
If all goes well and I retain all I grow with no major setbacks, I could be there by May 2011.

I'm PRAYING for all of us lol
 
I want purgatory length hair too!!:tantrum:....lets see...27 is waist for me...which i am and then 32 inches is Hip...so that's 5 inches for me as well!!....I hope to be at 30 inches by the end of the year at least.
 
This thread is such a treat. Natural K and Lita...ya'll make me want to faint with all that pretty, long hair!

Happy Hair Growing!
 
Just adding my update now. I'm stretching my hair because I just took out the rollers, but this time I'm not going to flatiron. I think that my CHI is not letting me retain all my length :( so I'm a little sad. I'm definitely WSL now so that makes me happy. Hoping to retain 3 inches by December. It'll still put me at purgatory length LMAO :lachen: but I will survive.

BTW I love the fact that you can't see my love handles in this picture! Guess my weight loss is paying off. Woot woot!
