Hey, Whims:
Here are my photos of two years worth of growth. These photos were taken on March 1, 2009 (my last relaxer was March 1, 2007). My hair grows about 1/2" a month):
Wet
Dry wash-n-go
Flat Ironed

I promise I won't OMG anyone else's photos but I am truly blown away and INSPIRED!!! 2 years - I'm on it!This is not a fair comparison, because my hair is not straight in the first one. I also don't have a good 2 year not straightened.
Oh well, this is the best I can do for pics right now.

Ok Here are mine.
First pic is at beginning of transition but I cut down to natural nape/back.
And today after washing 18 months later. I transitioned for 13 months chopped the relaxed ends only and continued growing the natural hair. So this is 18 months of natural hair growth from approx one inch all around.
Stretched out
Nape length check.

I'm ready to cut this mess. My hair is very dry and I don't want to continue with relaxing and now hair color. My hair has no pump. The BC doesn't seems so bad now that the weather is getting hot.I'm sorry - I'm not quite 2 whole years but I did do several mini chops before the final one in May, 07.
Bye-bye bangs in March 07 - wet hair. If stretched it would come to around my nose.
and this is from a blow-out in March, 09
It can sorta give a general idea, hopefully.

Yay, I think I've found a hair twin! Your twists are sooooo lushious. What did you use to twist and how long did it take?

Thank you! For my twists, the products usually vary. I have yet to find a product that will give me consistent results. I typically put twists in after washing and a leave-in is applied while my hair is still a little damp. I add a little "grease" to each section as I'm twisting. Right now I use Cantu Shea Butter leave-in and Cantu hair dressing pomade. Love that Cantu!
ETA: The time it takes to do twists on my head varies on the size. For the ones in these pics it takes at least an hour and a half.
