Soooooooooo, I cut off my permed ends a couple of days ago. Now my 11 y/o DD is *SUPER* excited because she has the longest hair in the house. She and I have a running discussion about how proper hair care can help your hair to grow. So I made this statement to her "Enjoy it while you can, my hair will be longer than yours shortly." She looked at me and walked off. I told her that I put a lot of time and effort into my hair and that by the time she is in 10th grade, I will have WL natural hair. She thinks I am kidding.
Later in the day she comes back and says "I challenge you." My face:
What I am thinking:
So I ask her what is the challenge. She says "I want to see your hair longer than mine by the end of the school year." Me: Ok fine. We shook on it.
Now, I only cut off at most 3 inches in the longest section. Before the cut, mine was longer. So I need to grow roughly 5 inches by July 1 (that's a little over 7 months). This is going to be interesting.
She is so sure that I can't do it. I feel as though I have too. Why??? I always tell her that I have the knowledge to help her with a variety of things, but that she will have to listen to what I say. This will show her that 1)I know what I'm talking about, 2)She should listen to me & 3)I only want to help her, we are on the same team.
So here is what it is: I will post up pics later today of my starting point. I will have to flat iron so that I can get an accurate measurement, then I will be in conrows for the duration of this challenge. I will alternate topical GA's monthly (thanks Nakia) to keep my growth at an optimal rate. I will DC weekly & wash every couple days. I will continue on with my daily vits: 2 Nioxin, 4 Garlic, 4 HF, 3 Hair Skin & Nails, 1 Multi, 1 Iron.
My DD will keep doing what she has been doing in an effort to out do me, lol.
Wish me luck ladies, I will update this thread at the end of each month to show my progress and help me stay on track. I will also tell what I did for that month to get the growth that I received.
This will be interesting.
