Inversion Challenge November 2013-November 2014

Day 5 completed, day 6 will be done tnight. I'm finding it much easier to complete if I pick a song or songs that equal the time on my Ipod and listen.
 
Day 4: used a new oil mix - grapeseed, coconut, broccoli, peppermint, tea tree, and lavender. My hair had been soo dry once the temps dropped. So we will see how this mix does for hair for sealing and scalp for inversion.
 
Sooo....I started alittle late with my inversion this month. Tonight will be Day 3 for me. :look:

*Saving this spot for my starting picture*
 
Day 4 was done yesterday, no oil

Day 5 just done with Wild Growth oil, now im ghe'ing overnight. I need APL!
 
It's official I'm in it for the long haul, I feel new growth at the crown and I'm bout to be only three weeks and I usually don't get anything until four weeks, I even asked SO did he feel it and he agreed he does as well!
 
I actually noticed my edges wasn't as smooth the third day and I have different amount of new growth all over, closer to the edges the least, but the most is my crown, my scalp is slightly sore as well! It's like the gym soreness, it feels so good because you know your making progress

Day 5 done with oil on my hair, though not scalp and not warmed. No massage. Hopefully can do both on Tuesday. Here are my starting pics.

Pic 1: measured 1/2" in the front where the brown clip is and 3/4" in the middle where the black clip is.

Pic 2: measured 1/2" in the very front. Please excuse the snow in my hair, :lol:, it was hair wash day.

DD and I inverted last night for four minutes off the couch after a four minute scalp massage with warm castor oil thanks to PureSilver's friendly reminder. Looking forward to tonight.
 
Pennefeather, I was having the same issue. I've been following Long Hair Don't Care and she has a vid on this issue you might want to check out. Here's the link: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YZ8xHsnMa2Y.

Thanks for the link. I didn't see it earlier when I posted. She certainly has beautiful hair, but way too much for me to manage. I would like roughly half of her hair.

I did like the way that she massaged her scalp. I think that I am too aggressive, and it makes my roots a mess. I will definitely keep her technique in mind next month.
 
Day 5 (?) Done with Shea Moisture Repairitive or or something oil with peppermint oil added, inverted for 3 minutes. Im enjoying this frequent oiling. My hair is softer and *knock on wood* im noticing very little shedding which is huge for me cuz I shed like a werewolf
 
Day 6 done. Oiled with my hemp seed oil, Shea butter, jojoba and water mix. Massage scalp this time and went a little longer with invert time.
For the relaxing properties 4 min just doesn't seem like enough so I went 8 min. I know I'm buckin the rules, :lol:.

I would've forgotten to invert last night if PureSilver weren't keeping me on track. I need to make the appointment in my calendar on my phone like I did the last two months. DD was up way past her bedtime so we inverted off the side of her bed for four minutes after a four minute massage with castor oil warmed up in our hands. I think on inversion weeks this will be our put-her-to-bed routine.
