But I'm in!
I have almost 12 inches of natural hair now, and 12 more would totally put me at my goal length! I really don't think I'll reach that til 2005, so I'm not counting on it, but I'll try!!
Let me go get my pen and write down some specifics, because this will take some serious dedication...

If you dont mind karezone please post your regime. I am so lost on how to get started. I'll try to think of one as well

Sure as soon as I finish getting it together. I might eliminate roller sets and wrapping because it is not the most workout friendly style to wear.

Girl I am so in! This is exacly what I was trying to achieve by next decemeber (12 inches). Knowing myself, though, I'm gonna set my goal at something a tad bit more reasonable for me. 10 inches. How am I gonna do it?
8-10 glasses of water a day
7000 mg of gnc msm
5000 mg of freeda biotin
100 grams of protein a day
Brewers yeast for my b complex and amino acids
Exercise (3-5 days of 30 minute cardio a week/ 2 days strength training)
Daily 5-10 minute scalp massages with essential oils
AND
SURGE!
Now I'm gonna add that stuff gradually to my regime 'cause I'm a po sister
Thanks for starting this thread. It's just the motivation that I needed

I think I can have 12" by Dec 2004 if I keep away from the scissors. Right now my hair varies in length. It is about 6"-9" all over. My hair grows pretty fast so I think I can grow 6" in one year.
dontspeakdefeat,
Your have a very cute fat round baby. I can just eat him up!

Hi fellow naturals
. I have some tips that may help you out in your plan, I experienced a moderate increase in growth rate these past ~4 months (during which time my hair was braided, BUT I don't attribute the growth to my braids). I averaged 0.35-0.55"/month which is way up from my old rate.
This is what I did consistently, that I never have before:
-I washed my hair every two weeks, without fail, using my old standby shampoo Dr. Bronners. It's thin in consistency, all-natural and non-drying.
-I massaged my scalp nightly
-I sprayed my scalp nightly (and sprayed the body of my braids 2-3 times a week) with my homemade Rosemary Spritz. My spray consists of - Water, rosemary essential oil, and pure vitamin-e oil.
I was also very conscious of what types of food I was eating just for overall health, I got enough servings of the different groups, minimized intake of the junk foods and drank LOTS of water everyday.
So those're all inexpensive, simple methods to achieve that length. Good luck!

2004: my year to become more healthy overall, hopefully my hair will be the side results of it.

If I could have 12 inches by Dec./Jan next year that would be SWEET! That would put me at WAIST lenght!!! (My ultimate goal).
First I need to be concerned with getting to bra strap
I'm almost there though.
I guess I'm in but, I'll be happy just as long as I make it somewhere below the bra strap!
ETA: I just did the math: I'm 21 inches now, so another 12 would be 33 = BUTT LENGHT ha ha ha....now that would be amazing. I just don't see that happening though....but hey I can try.

soslychic, that is an awesome regime. I'm convinced that if you stick to this, you will recieve more than 1in per month. I'm betting on two in. Good luck girl

Good luck to all you ladies on this challenge, I'll be watching closely. The only reason I'm not officially joining is because I don't like being restricted to doing anything for a long period of time.
However, with that said I truly believe that with dedication and perserverance, you will all reach your goals. Happy Hair Growing

JetcityGirl, you hair looks awesome. I remember you from Nappturality.
I would like to join in also. I have been quite lazy with my supplements, that I haven't been taking them for a while.

Hey thanks Valerie! This should be a fun challenge, and you never know! It might happen!
I'm just trying to figure out what else I could do that I'm not already doing to help my hair grow faster. I've been faithful with my supplements now for over 2 YEARS, and I've been working out several times a week for ages. I think I could drink more water, eat more veggies, stop sneaking smokes on the weekends, and be diligent with my scalp massages. And I just started using Surge on Dec 1 because of all the raves it got on this board. I hope it doesn't end up in the closet next to the unopened bottle of Capilong!
I swear,you ladies could sell milk to a cow!

I want 12in too, but I don't even know where to start. My hair is natural an is about 3.5in long. My biggest challenge is maintaining my ends. I suppose I could start taking my vitimans and Omgea-3 and fatty acids again. Oh yeah I could also work on eating more healthy and drinking more protein shakes and water. Hey this just might work :0)
