Inversion Challenge November 2013-November 2014

[xu93texas]

Day 1 completed. I won't be using oil this week because I'm getting a relaxer on Friday and I don't want to irritate my scalp. I'm passing on the length check as well until next session because I'll be getting a cut. So I'm just doing it this month just for the fun of it. Maybe I'll get some growth, maybe not.

 

[Dayjoy]

Just completed Day 1. I won't be using oil this month. I massaged my scalp for four minutes then inverted off the couch for four minutes.

 

[Lilmama1011]

I'm still going to invert after 12 but it's all good, I will invert for the first time later on this afternoon as well

 

[TheRealMe]

Completed inversion, month 3 just a moment ago. Off to bed.

 

[Lilmama1011]

day 1 just inverted, almost forgot will invert later for day 2

 

[Nix08]

Day 1 last night complete... no oil, no message. ....

 

[coolhandlulu]

Inverted. I did a number of things last month. Inverted, started using my own growth formulation, started using komaza's stinky stuff, scalp massages, brushing edges and front with boar bristle brush...all done inconsistently. My edges on my left side have grown in after years of being transparent. Needless to say, I'm now very motivated.

Ive totally fallen off the wagon but will be back on add of today. BTW for anyone having breakage issues ( ends breaking off) try nexxus pro mend leave in. It's like magic.

I've come to accept my split ends and this product at least lessens the breakage I get from them.

 

[Lilmama1011]

just did my length check shirt because just found my glitter glue sticks, i might not use it for this just my growth in general because my hair is curled and i want it straight and i can't pull it, i might have SO pull it later on today or just upload a pic of my bootleg shirt so yal can see lol i actually enjoyed making it. it was quick and i felt like a kid doing arts and crafts lol

 

[kinky curlygenie]

Day1 under the belt day2 will be completed later on tonight before bed

 

[HairPleezeGrow]

HairPleezeGrow, your growth over the last month has been amazing. I hope you have noticed and are giving yourself credit.

Thanks ma'am! Yes I definitely see a difference now and am glad it's working for me. Hope this month brings the same great results for all of us

 

[Cocoloves]

Day 2 done with Wild Growth oil and massage. Hung over the bed for 4 minutes. Ive noticed half an inch since December. Maybe this is working cuz i dont think i get the usual .5 inches a month

HHG ladies off to invert now for Day 2

 

[faithVA]

Day one is done. I am going to do inversion weekly, Thursday through Sunday.

 

[naija24]

can you do inversion in braids? i'm afraid being upside down will stretch my hair too much!!! lol

 

[ImanAdero]

Okay I'm back... Starting day 1 today. Will massage with oil warmed by my hands.

 

[PureSilver]

Just completed Day 2, no Oils used today

Hi all,

I am pretty new to these forums (using my sister's login) so please excuse me if my response isn't in the correct format. I've decided that 2014 is the year that I'll finally take good care of my hair. I've been natural for a few years now but I've been pretty lazy with taking care of my hair. Last year I was so stressed with work that I completely neglected it. As a result of my negligence I'm pretty much bald in the middle of my hair. After spending days crying about this, I've decided to take action. I've been reading this post and I really hope it isn't too late to join the challenge.

I've currently on day 2 of the challenge and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for results. I'm using macadamia nut oil. I invert by hanging off the side of my bed for about 10 minutes.

Current length: SL in the back, CL in the front and sides, bald in the middle (ugh I know it is a mess, I would post a starting pick but I'm too ashamed)

10 minutes ?!

 

[xu93texas]

Day 2 completed.

 

[naija24]

day 1 completed

 

[beingofserenity]

Yes. It sounds weird, but I kind of enjoy hanging upside down. I've been having shoulder pain recently and I think it has helped it.

 

[BlaqKitty]

Day 1 Tonight! My goal is to do it every month.

Welcome to the challenge beingofserenity, there is no rush or rules for posting pics, please post whenever you feel comfortable to do so. We are here to encourage and support you and hope that your time here will be a beneficial one.

Also be careful about hanging for too long. 10 mins i would say is a lil overboard you only need at most 5mins, going for that long daily may give you injuries such as nauseousness, headaches and dizziness, all of which i believe you would rather do without. Again we're here for you so feel free to ask questions and share with us your journey.
