sooo...here's some progress...
comicp_jpg1273851013-vi.jpg

both are on blowdried hair-i'm natural.

i think i'm going to wait until the back is at the bottom of my neck, and then trim for blunt-i want full blunt SL when i get there.
 
I did a little trim..so I'm not the same length but my hair is even and that is so much better than having ratty ends sl hair! Once again I will have no issues being shoulder length by Dec. That's not even a ? anymore which i am very excited about! :grin:

So far, so good. I'm a little over 9 months in my transition, the shorter layers of my hair are all natural now. The back is still pretty thin in spots but it is growing and doesn't appear to be breaking. I am going to step my game up with the vitamins starting ASAP.
 
Nice progress to all those putting up recent pics.

I am finally grazing SL, I don't think I can truly claim it yet though. It seems like it has taken forever to get this far. But I am hoping for more progress the next 3 months.

Here is the progress pics in my siggy.
 
I should have been in this challenge and not in the APL by DEC. 2010 challenge. What the heck was I thinking...

You look like you are very close to SL in your avatar. Its not too late to join us. You could aim for full SL by the end of the year, if u don't think APL is attainable.
 
Hey Ladies,

I'm close but so far away. At least it seems like it. Full SL is definitely a more attainable goal. I'm excited now!!!!:grin:

i think you have a little ways to go, especially on the sides.
your hair is looking good!:yep:
 
So I'm pretty sure I'm SL or almost. My hair is about 90% air dried. Excuse all the hair on my back :perplexed

agreed!! congrats!

how's everyone's hair coming along?? i'm in these cute cornrows i did on myself because i want to practice the feed-in technique. i think i'll keep them in for two weeks or really until they look like a hot fuzzy mess.
when i take them down, i'm thinking i'll flatiron and go get a trim.
 
just a gentle bump to keep myself motivated.

does everyone have summer hair plans??
I'm going back and forth with myself. on the one hand, i think i should do braids/weaves since i'm gonna be working everyday and it's nice to not worry about my own hair.

on the other hand, i think i look cutest with my own hair, and i do have a great, simple routine down that doesn't take up too much time. decisions, decisions.:drunk:
 
I was just going to wear my fro this summer but didn't want to fuss with it. Since I'm going to summer school and working I went ahead and put some twist extensions in my hair last week. I plan on keeping these in for a month or so and then redo them.
 
I'm getting so impatient.:whyme: I don't think I'ma make shoulder by year end; :nono: some parts of my hair in the back are only like 3 inches long. I do want to at least get to the bottom of my neck by year end tho. Sigh.

Right after my last big haircut, my hair grew out with lightening speed for a few weeks, now it seems to have slowed down.

On the plus side, my ends are looking good, and since most of my relaxed hair is gone, I have seen a big decrease in breakage. I also just got back serious with my vitamins (Natures Plus Multi and Biotin). I'ma also start drinking a soy protein shake a few times a week.

awww...don't worry. i've been getting kinda impatient as well, but i think i'm gonna just leave my hair alone for a while. focus on the positives-less breakage, and great looking ends!:yep:
 
Can I still join this challenge? I would like to make it to SL atleast by the end of summer and Full SL by December. I'm trying not to trim until atleast the end of the summer so my ends will just have to look crazy for now.

I've tried the Hello Hydration before and loved it. Is Totally Twisted better?? Looks like I'll be making another stop on my way home from work tomorrow :grin:

I really don't know. I haven't tried the Hello Hydration conditioner but I use the shampoo and I'm not really a big fan of it. My hair just doesn't like shampoo at all.
