Continue to pamper and protect those ends. It may take some time, but the rest of your hair has a chance to catch up. If you go get a professional trim, they will remove the length. If you wait and do things to pamper and baby your hair, I believe the rest of the hair will catch up to those longer lengths. It may take 6 to 9 months, though!

Okay sounds good! I will have to create an ends routine now. I definitely agree with you about holding off on a professional trim. I eventually want to learn to trim myself so I don't have to risk a stylist chopping off a ton of length. I'll hold off on trims until I can get more hair to the new length.

I did my deep moisture pre-poo. On dry, dirty hair I apply a mixture of glycerine, whole leaf aloe vera, oil and some essential oils. I gave my hair a deeper shine. My hair looked better from root to tip, instantly.

After washing, I put on a similar mix with some added conditioner and Scurl and slathered on my Shea butter. My hair was super pretty! I decided to use my Shea butter infused with coffee bean oil. The coffee beans were infused in 1/2 sunflower oil and 1/2 olive oil. I let the beans soak in the oil from April to October 2019, for about 6 months of 'goodness'. I also have cacao butter in my Shea butter blend, too.

The cacao butter or cocoa butter is the other name, gives my butter a slight firmness and hold. It doesn't melt down as easily in the jar. I've been slacking on doing my Ends Routine.

I used Aphogee Two Step the last time I washed my hair. Since I have more thickness on my hair sections, the process didn't eat up or tear out any length. I still think my hair looked instantly better because of the pre-poo, though.
Well you know I am in love with your diy prepoo @Chicoro. It is the best thing for detangling my hair. I never have to buy another bottle of detangling lotion ever again because of it.
 
Anybody else got a Shea update to help us start the week out GREAT!
I never officially joined but this is both a starting pic w/date (but the year should be 19) and what it looks like tonight.

In January, I had quite a bit cut off, going from just past armpit/bra strap to above shoulder & trimmed again a few months later. I didn’t really like the salon so I haven’t been back for any more trims but my goal is healthy ends at armpit length.

Thank you! :blush2:
Tomorrow I have to Shea it up. It feels thicker, more moist & healthier with a regimen of just four products (shampoo, conditioner, s-curl & Shea) than it did when I was putting any and everything in my hair. Parting has never before been easy or painless like this. Hopefully, the s-curl continues to be effective through the winter.
 
Flat ironed my hair for the first time in at least a year and noticed I have an area of hair that is hip length! (my left hand is holding my hip in the picture) This is the longest my hair has been in my entire life. Using shea has been a game changer this year as I've been focusing on regaining the health of my hair.

This child shaves her head bald on Tuesday, and has collarbone hair on Wednesday. :eek: :confused:What kind of fast hair,growing, human being is this do we have among us?:spinning:

I'm dubbing her Lil' Lightnin' because her hair grows as fast as lightening. Amazing!


Shea butter was involved in this!!!!! Her hair is like SILK.

BEAUTIFUL Results!
