MBL 2010 Challenge Reveals

[exubah]

Okay Ladies,

I've decided it would be easier for persons to post their "reveal" photos for the MBL 2010 challenge in this thread.....if they so desire. You do not "have" to post a photo, that was not a requirement of the challenge.

I will not be posting a photo until next week when I get back to the Bahamas and my photographer

Thank you to all the ladies/persons that embarked on this challenge with me. Alas it has been a trying year............I got to MBL, cut back to a little past APL and now I'm on my way back to MBL but with less volume (so many setbacks, mostly medically related).

So congrats to the ladies that made this year's goal of MBL and stay positive and be encouraged to those that are not quite there yet !!!

I was just pleasantly surprised by the length check I did for the New Year so I just have to share .

I'm at/ in the middle of my bra-strap ya'll!! I am BSL!! I've been waiting for this for-freaking-ever . I pulled my tank top down to wear WL is, so am I grazing MBL or am I tripping?

I'm not claiming MBL even though I said that when I get to the bottom of my brastrap, I'm claiming it I need more hair to be there, anyhoo..here are the pics!

 

[ckisland]

Janet'!! I've been waiting for your reveal! Your hair looks great . I think that BSL and MBL are the same for me too, but I'm not sure.

 

[DesignerCurls]

[exubah]

Well Janet you are at the bottom of the Bra strap-also your hair has thickened up quite a bit! I am happy for you you have done well...Congrats on your progress!

 

[Beverly Ann Properties]

Congrats Janet way to grow in 2010. I am sure all of your goals will be met in this new year~

Sorry for being tardy to the party! I had to track down a couple of pix from January. So here goes:

These pix were taken in January:

There pix were taken last night after my henna treatment and trip to the Dominican salon:

Here is a color shot from my henna (Lush Caca Noir):

Sideview (sorry the lighting was off):

Goofy shot:

This is where my hair falls when I'm sitting (and before you ask, yes...I had to cut out the fat rolls...otherwise I would look like a refrigerator with hair):

Well, what do you ladies think? Should I claim MBL or should I wait another month?erplexed What I do know is that I need to dust my ends a bit.

 

[ckisland]

Ms Coco, your hair is gorgeous . Beautiful progress!! I say that you're definitely MBL. I say claim it but I can't tell where it is on myself.

Wow-that's alot of growth! I am no expert but I say claim it! and congrats! Thanks for posting your progress!

 

[exubah]

I say claim it too Ms. Coco!!!!

 

[Janet']

^^^Well, because I wear my hair so low...MBL and BSL are really the same thing on me...but now after having been made it...I feel like I'm not ready to claim MBL until I'm full MBL and I know I will be that by February.

 

[nappystorm]

Claim it, I say, claim it!!!

 

[Janet']

Oh, by the way- Ms CoCo...CLAIM IT, BOO!!! You are MBL!!!!

 

[Ms_CoCo37]

Thanks ladies! I really wasn't sure. For one thing, I went to the Dominican salon, and of course when I go there my hair always looks thinner than it actually is. Either way, I'm so glad I took part in this challenge, and I can't wait for WL!

 

[Ms_CoCo37]

Wow-that's alot of growth! I am no expert but I say claim it! and congrats! Thanks for posting your progress!

Thank you! I didn't realize how much it had grown until I tracked down the pix from January. I guess that's why it's good to document your journey, otherwise you wouldn't realize just how much progress you've made.

Congrats on making it to BSL! A couple more inches and you'll be able to claim MBL.

 

[ckisland]

^I totally agree with you. I'm going to claim it once I get a good inch or so pass my bra-strap.

 

[LilMissSunshine5]

This thread is INSPIRATIONAL! I'll be in this challenge in 2012 Way to grow ladies!!!

 

[SmilingElephant]

AWESOME PROGRESS LADIES!!!....WOW!!! Can't wait to get to MBL in 2012!!!

 

[DarkandLovely]

Awesome progress ladies! Bumping for more inspiration b/c I'm in the MBL 2011 .

 

[classychic1908]

Congratulations Ms. Coco!!!!

You know what ladies, I think MBL is the most difficult length to determine... I think most of us are unsure about it claiming it.

 

[cutenss]

The reveal:

I want to cut my hair back to above my brastrap. My ends are a And my pony is bony, but I am happy that I didn't lose length. But I didn't gain either due to frequent trimming, which is why I may cut back to above BSL, and go from there, with ends for the new year.

Any opinions/suggestions?

And to those who are there. AWESOME

 

[classychic1908]

^^^ I would baby and protect those ends unless they're split. Maybe plan a trim for appearance when you reach your next goal. Your hair looks great to me!!

This is true-but your length is no question MBL! like I stated in a previous thread-you are closer to WL!

 

[Mrs. Verde]

Great progress, ladies. Congratulations!!
