Thank you for bumping this thread up. I was searching for it. Here is my starting pic:

Bra Strap Length



When I added my name a few months ago I was APL. So I have been progressing nicely. Great to start the year with some new length. Hopefully I will be full MBL in December. Wish me luck ladies. I'm so excited. YOUSAH!

You are doing GREAT!

ok so finger combing sucked. thought it was fine until i brought out the shower comb yesterday for the first time in a week...needless to say, i will continue to cowash daily but will also detangle daily with my shower comb now. still not pulling at the hair to see length until at least march.

you are a good one! i pull to see my length every chance i get! that is a BAD habit i have and i don't think i'm ready to break it...

i don't think it matters, though. i don't see my "true" length until i straighten anyway.

Yeah, that's why I had to put it in braids. I was pulling it daily. It was driving me nuts I like being suprised when I take the braids out.

Hey. Just checking in. I am a good two inches from MBL but I don't think I will straighten and check until march. Keeping my fingers crossed until then

I sorta forgot about this challenge, but I am still in.
I'll try to put a new starting pic some time this week too

As for reggie: Shampoo, condition, and rollerset weekly; use ayurvedic oils every other night

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

I'm still hangin' too, I'm co-washing weekly, ayurveda powders in deep conditioner, mtg & mn mix nightly, waistlength hair cocktail every a.m., bunning daily (flat ironed last week, my hair looked real good) and praying for a nicer head of hair come April~

 

[Black Hoya Chick]

so since I am thinking about BC-ing on my birthday (August 29th), this MBL thing seems a little funny now. but since the chop isn't 100% definite, i shall continue to stick around. but i'll keep ya'll updated. if i chop, MBL '10! lol

 

[thaidreams]

Can I join this challenge? I had my ends clipped over the weekend, so I'm back at BSL.

 

[DanaDane]

Still in the challenge--I think I should be MBL around May-ish.

Edited b/c I forgot to post a pic. Recent flat iron pic (I think 5-6 weeks post)--I forgot to take one from the back

Thanks for checking in, Dana!

 

[Lia200805]

Is this challenge closed? I wanna join!

Okay so I'm currently without weave, 19 months post relaxer, no big chop.

I co-wash twice a week and DC once a week. I use cantu leave in, castor oil and some shea butter moisturiser in a tub. Also spritz now and then with glycerine/water...that's it.
Dunno how to post pics..starting pic in my avi

 

[Lia200805]

Here's a progress pic I took on 2/28 for the ayurvedic challenge. It's going to have to be my starting pic for this challenge, because I just got my camera back.

[**SaSSy**]

Is it too late to join this challenge? I just seen this thread and had no idea of it before now. My starting pic is in my siggy.

My goal is to get to where the bottom of this bra in my siggy. When my hair is wet I'm BSS in the back and past SL in the front.
