OP,

What about sitting under the hair dryer- that's not direct heat...If you will allow the hair dryer- I'm in...Oh, and what about any passes? Do you allow for passes- for example, I am going to be in a wedding in October and she has already told me that she wants me to get my hair straightened, lol!

Maybe I just shouldn't try to join this challenge, I might have too much going on...

 

[caligirl2385]

i'm interested but i'd like to know if we can have a pass as well

eta: can transitioners join?

 

[Naturae]

A Pass?! You guys are breaking me...lol OK - I've added that to the original terms in my initial post.

YOU ARE ALLOWED ONE PASS FOR STRAIGHTENING - USE WISELY - POST REGIMEN HERE AFTER YOU STRAIGHTEN

@ JANET - IF YOU WISH TO SIT UNDER A HOODED DRYER IT MUST BE ON COOL/WARM SETTING ONLY - HOT NOT PERMITTED

I'd like to join this challenge. I hadn't planned on using heat until December to do a length check anyway. I am wearing twists right now and may keep them in for the rest of the summer.

Sianna, I know you can do it, welcome to the challenge!

 

[LuvlyRain3]

I wanna join. I'm trying to avoid heat anyway since I BCd and want to retain as much length as possible.

 

[AKA-Tude]

Count me in!!

This will allow time for the rest of the
relaxed hair to grow out
then I can gain some length.

This is just the motivation I need!

 

[Avaya]

So basically this is a no heat/direct heat challenge? If so, I am in ?

All the more reason for this to be a success for you, LuvlyRain3. Welcome to the Challenge!

Did a braidout today and Im in love...The patchouli method of dcing...As stated by westindian beauty is super duper moisturizing to my hair

 

[Iamhim]

I would love to join this challenge. (I tried the rollersetting challenge earlier this year and it didn't work for me!)

I currently straighten once every two to three months. (So far this year Jan, April, June). I think I can hang until Dec 26th!

 

[PistolWhip]

[NaturallyMo]

Sounds good to me. I was planning on straightening my hair in Sept. for a length check, but I'll just push it back a few months. Hopefully this will help me reach APL by the end of the year.
