Hello ladies, I've experienced so much breakage and shedding in the past couple mths that I wasnt sure if my hair was growing. apparently it is, and I cant hold my excitment. :) This is my progress pic from dec 2006 (got 2inches cut off) till May 2007! My regime isnt nothing to write home about, in regards to vitamins, I'm taking Liquid buried treasure's hair, skin and nails, which has a combo of everything. I have also been taking Bamboo silica the past 3 weeks. I dont use much heat maybe 1x a month or so. I use my left over MTG and BT as well. I dont do daily cowashes, which I used to b4, I prob wash 1x a week or 2 (oops!!)

If I can curb my breakage, I might get close to BSL hopefully around dec God willing.

To ladies new on this board, I cant stress just how blessed we are to have a place like this.
This was me in summer/fall of 05

You know what? Your success has given me hope that I can have healthy, longer hair. There are many women around here who have a history of having healthy and/or long hair, had a few setbacks, but are then able to bounce back. What is most inspiring about you is the fact that you had severe breakage and damage and yet, you persevered and was able to achieve your goals despite the shortcomings. Congratulations! :yay: :yay: You have done a marvelous job! :kiss:

And yes, we certainly *are* blessed to have a place like LHCF!;)

Thanks so much ladies, this site is so refreshing, I havent done updates since last Aug, but had to because I know there are many like me on here, especially the newbies! dont lose hope, there will be bad days but its a marathon, not a sprint, and at the end, you will definitely see progress!

If anyone has any sure thing to help with breakage, please let me know, I really want BSL!! :D
 
Thanks ladies :) My hair appears to grow better in the summer so I'm hoping for maximum growth in the new few months.
I probably use BT like 5-6x a week, so like daily, I like the scented one cause I can use it without fear :D
 
Congratulation! It's admirable that you had the courage and patience to work through the tough times with your hair. You'll be an inspiration to many ladies. Keep up the good work. HCHG (happy continued hair growing). :)
 
Your hair growth is great!!! The breakage could be due to stress, or you may need more moisture. I had this same problem also, a few years back, my hair was below BSL and growing. But my stylist in training and I got it together.

Keep it growing long and strong...
