MBL 2010

I have layers that range from apl to a little past bsl. Would you guys suggest trimming or just waiting it out till most of the hair is MBL and then trimming?

If your ends are healthy I would suggest waiting until your longest hairs slightly past MBL and then trim back to MBL until your shorter hairs catch up. Then if you decide to surpass MBL you would do so with blunt hair :yep:
 
Checking in. I'm still DCing regularly (every week most times). I'll rollerset my hair this upcoming weekend, so I'll post some update pics. FOR REAL this time. :lol:
 
Congrats, Taj! How does it feel?

Thank you lalla!! It feels great!! This is my second time being MBL, but the first time I didn't realize it. I wear my bra-strap so low that in comes to the middle of my back. Therefore, when my hair hits my bra-strap or below I'm actually MBL not BSB/BSL.
 
YAY TAJ...but um...where the pix at boo?!

lol! Thanks & congrats too you as well.:grin: I haven't taken any yet. I'm 27 weeks post and I have a lot of shrinkage. I'll post when I relax in May or June or if I flat iron. Sorry for the delay.

:ohwell: Fine! I'll just sit over here and wait then. humph!
 
:clapping::clapping::yay::yay: WTG Taj!!!!

Man I hope I have the same MBL revelations at my next relaxer in May as some of you ladies are having right now :yep:

Thanks!!!:grin: You will be able to achieve MBL. You know we just have to maintain and be consistent with our regimen. This challenge has motivated me so much and I'm glad I joined. I've been on this site since 2007 and I should have been beyond WSL, but I was slacking and I had several setbacks. Now, I'm serious about my business. lol!
 
WOOHOO!!! You ladies are jammin!!




Wow!!! You ARE almost WL and your hair looks soooo gooood! :congrats::dance7:





Casey, your hair is gorgeous! And your length looks mbl to me. Can't really tell from the pic tho. But, I love your nice, thick ponytail! :lick:




:urock: Congrats on being all natural, mama! What color are you thinking of?




:sweet: Congrats on making MBL! :waytogo: Can't wait to see pics!


Thank you NJoy!! I'll post photos as soon as I relax in May or June. If I flat iron, I'll post sooner. My new growth is crazy at 27 weeks post. Look at my fotki, I have a few photos there.
 
Checking in...

I DC'd today with some Cholesterol and also did an Aphogee 2 min reconstructor treatment.

Is MBL on me the green line or the yellow line? TIA

I think you are pretty much at MBL. I agree the green line is your waist. Great job!
 
Go Girls!!!!!! Congratulations to our early graduates Taj and Whimsy!!!!

Whimsy, your hair is gorgeous and nearly WL!!

Taj, I can't wait to see the pics, I'm sure your hair is bangin' and swangin'!!
 
Hmm it looks to me that when you cover your bra, you'll be MBL and WL is between the green and yellow lines. Your hair looks so healthy and sleek!

I thought MBL would be at the green line and your waist is at the yellow line. Now, having read everyone else's post, I'm confused. :spinning: But in ANY case, your hair is fabulous!! :yep:

This should help. BSL should be about where your nipple is and MBL should be right under your breasts. My bra band falls where MBL should be for me. I claim BSL now. When my hair gets to the bottom of my bra band, I'll be MBL.

I agree. MBL should fall right below your breasts.

Just checking in. I read the last few pages to keep myself updated. You ladies are all doing great and your hair looks beautiful. I have been not taking the greatest care of my hair. The last few weeks the only thing I have committed to doing is co-washing. But I will most likely straighten tonight for pictures I am taking for work. I don't know. If I do, I will probably post some pics. Keep up the good work ladies.
 
Checking in. I *think* I'm on target to reach my goal by December.

Transitioning. Co-washing 2-3 times/week. Braiding it out and bunning it for retention. Flatironing for lengh checks only.
 
Thank you JJamiah!! Yes, I am super excited because I'm closer to my goal of WSL.:grin: :congrats: to you also!!

Awww thanks so much, I can't wait until December I hope to be saying the same words, I made it to - - - shhhh don't want to say it yet :D

I can't wait until June to see your pics, I am taking mine then too, just my schedule right now on pics.

But great job reaching one of your goals :D

Thanks for your input everyone. I'm going to aim for the green line in this MBL challenge. I'll be getting a trim soon, so that will add some time to my quest.
