i am just going to bun for the rest of the year. it will make me feel better. even though i just had a major setback, i really hope i can still make MBL by the fall.
I feel ya!
I rollerset my hair yesterday and it is in a stretched twistout, but I miss my buns. In just a couple of weeks of bunning it and leaving it alone, my hair is making great strides already. I have retained very well. There is no lie that bunning works!
You will make it to MBL this year!

Okay, so I feel like my hair hasn't een growing too much lately which means that it's time for another personal challenge
So I hereby promise to:
- Deep condition my hair EVERY wash day from now on. (probably with AOWC or AOGPB)
- Probably twist for a week and wear a twist-out on week 2
- Baggy my twists every night after applying coconu oil to ends
Until the 21st of June which will be the end of the SistaWithRealHair hair challenge on youtube
Wish me luck.... again

Just got my first of two Silk Dreams orders today. I'm seriously considering skipping the gym tonight so I can wash and DC with these new goodies.

I do not officially join challenges, however, my goal is to reach MBL. I don't know exactly what MBL is for me, considering that I am short and short-waisted
Current Length: BSL when air-dried (I think), APL when curled (wearing curls is my trademark).
Current State of Hair: Relaxed (types 3 and 4) and color treated with henna and indigo.
Regimen: Exclusively use Silk Dreams Brand Products: Wash and deep condition 2x with steam, alternating between protein and moisturizing treatments. Roller set, bantu knot-out, twist outs, or ragged bun for styles. I like to wear my hair down and I know that doesn't help me retain length but I hate wearing my hair up.
I'd like to be MBL by December 2013. My last relaxer of the year will probably be in September though so I know I will have shrinkage. I am not good with pictures though!

At the start of BSL! Patiently waiting for full❤️
Current Length: BSL

Regimen: I DC once a week. Otherwise my hair is braided underneath wig. I spritz daily with Aloe Vera and water. Wash when needed.

Hey Everyone!
I am about 9 weeks post , I flat ironed this weekend (I have used a lot of heat in the past month), I cannot deal with my hair past 8 weeks, I suck at bunning, and do not know how to deal with my NG.
So I am relaxing this weekend coming up and think I made some good progress since my last measure.

Don't think I'll be making it with you guys this year. Just got more than an inch trimmed off after my last relaxer (much needed) so my eyes are back set on at least reaching BSL by December. Can't get too down...my hair is still on my head and healthy! I'll be watching from the sidelines. ....

Oh my goodness, in all my time using AOWC, I've never smelled anything like this... i think I was lucky before because this the two new bottles I got are FUNKY :/
I swear, this is the third worst smell I have ever come across (First is indigo, second is miso soup)
Am I going to use these bottles?? You darn skippy I am ... since I paid for them.

it could be because it is natural . Alot of those natural products dont have preservatives. A good and not so good thing.

The AO conditioners do have preservatives in them, I think they use natural/organic oils for this, either the last or second to last ingredient on the list, so I don't think it's that. So far AOWC is my least favourite of their conditioners. I love HSR and quite like the Island naturals although I'm not overly keen on the smell but I prefer it to WC. It may just be the batch.
So I blowdried a piece of my hair in the back to length check before another challenge and it looks like I am right on time with my bimonthly growth. But I want to speed it up
. Over the winter I had a little more growth and I can attribute it to baggying my whole head every night and sulfur/mn oil applications.
As of today, I have gone back to it. I want to maximize my growth this summer. Cowashing is good, but I think I will cut it down to about every four days or so. That way I can get more out of this concoction.

I have a set back on the left side of my head. I cut a braid and there's this one patch this is shorter than everything. It's like a little Afro puff in the back of my head ughhh
