We have a month left:yay: , what's going on with yall? Yall still hanging? As for me, I'm straight. Still hiding and baggying these ends. I'm 9 weeks post and I'm trying my best to stretch until we reveal, but boy is it hard. Your turn!!!!!
 
I will be 15 weeks post Sunday and I will be relaxing. I will try to hide until then but it is tempting to reveal beforehand.
 
Well i just took out my braids from May, cant seem to keep them in longer than a month these days. Will rebraid tomorrow and pray that i can keep my hands out of my hair until July 4th.. Much growth all around. For this last month i plan on focusing on the center of my head it needs the most growth.

Good Luck Ladies
 
I fell off something terrible! I lost my bun and I only have one so I just gave up. My DH took a pic for me the other day after my touch up (in avatar) and it reinspired me to get back on track. It's been up in a ponytail the last week or so. Hopefully my last-ditch-attempt will give me a little something to show for my efforts. I probably won't take another pic until August 5th (my B-day).
 
I've done ok...used a few to many passes. I'm also 9 weeks...I'm not sure how much longer I can or want to hold out but I like to take pics during relaxers so I may push back my reveal to august.
 
I'm hanging in there but I'm tired of looking bad! These days I wear a bunned ponytail. I got tired of the phony ponies!

Oh! I'm currently 8 weeks post!

Aww I dropped from this challenge a long time ago. :( I've only worn my hair out maybe 2 or 3 times but I've been posting pictures. :ohwell:
 
I became VERY discouraged at one point but reaffirmed my commitment to myself to complete this. I braided my hair in cornrows and have been rockin' cornrows under a wig!

I've suffered a lot of breakage/shedding due to stretching so now, I'm letting it grow until I reach APL. I've never had my hair that long so it'll be wonderful to see, once I reach my goal, I'll trip it back to thicken it up. I don't so much care about length anymore as I do about hair health (now that I KNOW can grow it).

I'm 9 weeks post and I have loads of new growth it seems. I'm doing pretty good though. I have a sew-in now and I'm debating on wearing it for another month after getting it tightened up on or around the 11th of June. I might take it down the last week of June so I can get a relaxer for the 4th of July. I haven't decided yet. :look:
 
I'm doing good, I've been wearing cornrows since April 1st. I used 2 passes. I wore my hair out in a puff for a wedding in mid-May, and I wore my hair in a puff a few weekends ago for a work outing, but that was an accident. I wasn't planning to go, so I undid my cornrows the night before so I could wash it the next day. Then, I decided to go at the last minute, and didn't have enough time to cornrow may hair before I left.

My hair has grown out quite a bit, even my trouble spots are flourishing!
 
growing brown- I know its tempting but hang in there we’re almost done.;)

tyte curlz- keep up the good work, it will pay off.:)

Hair Peace- your hair is looking good missy but you know you have been a bad, bad, girl for showing that progress.:p

Wheezy807- keep hanging in there you’re doing good. I can’t wait to see your progress.;)

Senimoni- oh, I used a pass for Memorial’s Day. I wore my hair out with this ng and everything and that’s what tempting me to relax because I can’t wait to see my progress. I am soooo excited about this HYH challenge. Hang in there and I can’t wait to see your progress.:)

Monarae- I feel ya, I’m tired of looking bad too lady but it will be well worth it. Just wait and see.;)

Amwcah- keep up the good work.;)

Bmflyyg- your hair is pretty but still:spank: :grin:

Vixxen- do what you gotta do as long as your hair is healthy, that’s all that matters and apl is definitely a nice length (dare I say long) I feel you on the stretching part. I relax my own hair and last time I stretched til 10 weeks. It was hell so I will be monitoring my hair.:)

ILuvsmuhgrass-keep up the good work missy. You’re doing good.;)

Kiwi- you’re doing good also, keep up the good work.;)

I'm sorry tsmith!! :cry3: I couldn't take it anymore. I had been hiding since the last Hide Your Hair til Xmas Challenge. I needed a break. Maybe I'll hop back on for the long stretch.
 
I'm doing well, I'm 7wks post and still hiding this hair with buns and clips. It's been hot and rainy so I have no desire what so ever to take this stuff down.
 
Still hangin strong, gonna get a sew-in tomorrow so right now my hair is wrapped in a scarf. Can't wait to see what effect BT has had on my hair, started using it at the end of April. I think I might wait and reveal until the end of bootcamp session 2.....

I know! But it was the kick in the butt I needed to get me back on track! It's under wraps now!:grin:
 
Its going ok. I get my hair in braids to make the challenge easy for me. I think I will continue with the next HYH challenge as well. This makes everything so simple for me. I just finished taking out my braids this weekend and I will do the necessary protein treatments and then bun it up.

Hair Peace, that's good to know you're back on track;)

mytialpn-your hair is going to grow so much being pregnant and all. My hair grew to almost the middle of my back when I was pregnant with my youngest daughter. I wore cornrolls braided to the back with the ends loose. Just keep moisturizing and your hair is going to be the bomb!!!

MCrzyGR-that BT aint no joke. Between BT and viviscal, I got 2 inches from April (that pic in my sig) until today when I relaxed. So in 9 weeks I got 2 inches. I have only been using BT for about a month and I have been using viviscal since I think January. Of course I'm dying to show my progress but I can't due to this challenge.:p

Locks-see ya in the next challenge mami;)

Alli77-that's right, keep it simple and keep up the progress:)

I am eight weeks post relaxer and I am doing okay. I might stretch until August.

Girl, good luck:lol: I try and try to stretch until at least 12 weeks but I always cop out at 9 weeks or 10 weeks max:p I start getting anxious when I feel all that ng:D
 
Still hanging in there...I cut about 1/2 inch just to even things up. My ends were looking a little scragly. I think that I'm going to keep going until my birthday (9/11).
 
I'm still hiding! Its pretty easy for me at this point. I almost prefer the easy of wearing a bun. I haven't been baggying though. TOns of moisture but no baggy. :ohwell:
 
Girl it's been an uphill battle. I used one of my free passes, and I'm about to use one last one for my birthday, but I was proud of myself, one day off, and then the next day I was back in a bun with the quickness. It's hard but I'm getting alot of cute styles I'll definitely be wearing this summer. I want to try baggying when I get out of these twists. But let me tell you learning to do my own kinky twists from doing this challenge has been a major perk
