I got 1.5 inches last month!

[Prettyeyes]

My new bangs only grew one inch cause they are left out but I am okay with that!The rest grew a full 1.5 inches!

I am in the HYH challenge and I am a bunner. I wore a bun everyday For these last 5 weeks (longer actually but measured 5 weeks ago) Only combed once every two weeks.

Each week on shampoo day I used either shikakai or a gentle poo. Conditioned,combed with wide tooth comb. Did my moisturizing and sealing. Bun.

Moisturize and Seal everyday or every other, as well as spraying on water.BUN. No combing. You could comb once a week if needed. I only combed once every two weeks. I am using some really low manipulation along with my staple products. BTW, my ends are holding up fine.

Can I have a slice of proof puddin' too?

 

[flowinlocks]

congratulations on your progress!!

 

[Prettyeyes]

I will not relax until the end of the year. I could pull up my NG and measure but I haven't relaxed in over 10 weeks so I got tons of NG. So I couldn't prove it! I can just pass on what is working for me and you can try it and that's all.I am not here to brag just passing things on to others. I will update and relax in December showing 4 months growth. HTH!

Bunning is what's up

 

[Noir]

Congrats girly!!!

Bunning and Ayurveda powders are the truth!

Btw what products did you use for moiusturing and sealing and how many days a week did you wash your hair?

 

[Prettyeyes]

I was doubtful of the shikakai powder because I am more into indian oil but it is serious. I am only washing on Friday because I am doing very low mani. I don't even take the bun down during the week except once to keep it looking nice. I use various moisturizers, s-curl,BB, condish, anything. I have been on a sweet almond oil kick for sealing. Another key is wetting with water daily (spray bottle)HTH!

 

[Noir]

we have a similar regi but i also co wash in the week.

congrats again

Yeah I normally do to but I am doing this til' the end of the year as an experiment. It would be to hard to do this forever. I like playing in my hair too much! And thank you for being so supportive

 

[Prettyeyes]

As long as you can tuck and pin your ends under you should get similar results as bunning.

 

[Prettyeyes]

Pretty thats is great growth. How did u moisturize ur end during the week.

Just dab some moisturizers and cover with oil and also sometimes spritz with water, try to keep them real moist.
