My progress

[MAMATO]

My progress one year later (pics incl )

That is my first time posting progress pics... so sorry for any inconvenience in advance
I started last year (feb 08) with shoulder length and lots of postpartum shedding... Now I am on my way to MBL,so so far I am happy with my progress since I am 5'9

NB: What do you guys think, can I claim MBL

ETA: I finally got my final verdict from my preferred hairstylist and official trimmer, my lovely husband. I asked him to trim my hair like he does as usual twice a year. His answer
Quote "Honey, let's wait 2 or 3 months until you get to MBL before we trim it".

He knows what MBL is, even if he barely speaks english (we are French Canadians). I was right on the floor laughing... They do listen to us I will post pics then when I get there

Thanks Actually I just don't know where MBL is, that is why I don't claim it....It is a hard to define length actually...

4 words : What is your regimen ?

 

[flowinlocks]

Your hair is beautiful. Great progress.

 

[MAMATO]

My regimen is simple: LOW and I mean really LOW manipulation and KISS...

DC with Lekair Cholesterol and wheat germ oil (or avocado oil)
Clarifying shampoo: I clarify at least every other week with shikakai bar or Suave shampoo because I like to keep my scalp clean.
Shampoo once a week with either CON or some JOICO moisture
Rinse with Aphogee 2 min rec or Joico Moisture
Leavin: Rusk Smoother (Love it)
Moisturizer: I apply a bit of NTM leavin first on my ends and seal with a drop of My homemade mix of shea butter daily...
For the bling: A drop of Jasmine oil (contains mineral oil but my hair loves it)

At night, cross wrap, real silk scarf... In the morning my hair is up in a jaw clip, I rarely bun because I am not patient enough, but I may try it in the future...

I must admit I use heat more often then I'd like too, I flat iron probably once a month. On a weekly basis, I airdry or dry under the hooded dryer (loose hair, I dont know how to rollerset wet hair). Right after that I slightly blowdry the roots to straighten the new growth...and I finish the look with my giant Caruso rollers for some big curls I am do-it-yourselfer all the way, I've always been, relaxers included... I am too impatient to waste my time in a beauty salon

 

[Poranges]

Sooooooooooo beautiful! My reggie is basically the same as yours and it works for me! Congrats!

Great We probably have the same texture...I think it is really a KISS regimen because I dont have to worry about my hair until washday.

 

[MAMATO]

Bumping... I'd likE TO HAVE YOUR opinion... do you think I am MBL ? Tks for your feedback

 

[SparkleDoll]

Your hair is so pretty!

 

[that_1_grrrl]

Not you too!

I swear, you girls are going to kill me with all this pretty hair. Love your hair too.
