You and me both. MoonStar you gotta spill it, whats your secret inquiring minds want to know?

 

[MoonStar]

My only secret is......I don't use a comb. The only time I comb my hair is in the shower with Breakthru shampoo in it. I also don't use a conditioner. Breakthru makes my hair so moisturized and silky that I don't want to use anything else.

Here's mine.
Both are newly relaxed by the same salon.
The one from 2005 was cut into a nice bowl-like-do ( yes, it's uneven) by the salon owner.
I needed a hair cut, although needless to say, she has not been allowed to touch my hair since.

love your growth I hope I get this much growth in a year too.

If I'm going to wear it out I usually will just finger comb, but most of the time I wear my hair in a ponytail. I wash my hair, comb it in the shower, and then when I get out I put it in a ponytail. (I will wrap the front with a satin scarf if I'm going to bed) If it gets messy during the day I will spray leave-in conditioner on the outside and brush it down.

Lately I've been using Motions leave-in, but only because it was on sale; it does make my hair soft.

(I only wear my hair out when I go to the salon, which isn't often, maybe twice a year. But this website gives my inspiration to try new things!)

You are definitely one of my top favorites. When I go to church tonite, I have to sow a hair growth seed like yours!!!! lol!!!!!!!!! Lmao!

 

[ekomba]

Thank you Jcoily!!! i feel like it s finally paying off and i think i see the progress more by taking comparison shots lol else in normal time you just feel like it s growing ok then the pix tell a different story and to me it motivates me more to continue just when i feel like giving up.

Your hair growth is amazing! Would you mind sharing your regimine with me?

Thank you Carribean_dream!!! For my regime what i did for the year is mostly a high sulfur- high protein diet and regimen. i havent used heat nor shampoo (except occasionally for high buildups) for 1 year and 1 month and i m mostly in protective styles crown and glory (cornrows,braids,twists). Lately its mostly twists and twistouts low maintainance. my regimen used to be:
-vitamins: # hair vits, biotin, foti and carlson msm powder 9000mg daily, Twinlab amino fuel
-topical: mtg daily with baggie method, wgo, gueyes growth oil, grease, huil masketi or mascriti (spelling?), minoval
-cowashes, airdrying (absolutely no heat), no combing, hair always covered
-diet: Designer whey protein shakes,vegetables,fruits and nuts. eggs, pouches of salmon and baby carrots snacks on apples and almonds daily. one gallon water daily
-wash hair once a week with Praital silk worm rinse
-every 3 weeks, i do a amla oil treatment (amla powder/evoo/h20)
-every 3 weeks i do a Bigen blue black rinse i buy 2 boxes it gives me a nice deep black color(to keep hair soft and add sheen and shine)
