I know I could. I did buy some blackstrap molasses as a treat for my hair though. I still don't know exactly what I'll do with it, but hopefully it can stop this shedding and breaking I am experiencing. I think if I can stop all that, then my hair should make my next goal rather quickly.
I know what you mean. I felt shoulder length for EVER. It wasn't until I looked back at some of my pics and realize that I actually started out my journey shorter than I realized and grew out at a decent rate. Especially in light of the fact that for the first year and a half of my journey, I trimmed regularly to get rid of the damaged hair from my over processing, every six week, overlapping relaxer days. lol
I am at 8 weeks now and I'm not panicing for a relaxer yet
I went through spurts of where my hair looked long (or not) right now, its long because its something else to handle. but next week I may be like wow, its.just.not.long
