How did it grow so long in 4 months? Do you get 1" a month? What is your regimen? Nice hair

What's so funny is that I keep my regimen simple and easy.
I wash once a week applying Silk Elements Hair Mayo first sealed with Jojoba oil and sitting under the dryer for about 15-20min, then wash that out. For the last 4 months I have used two different brands of shampoo: Nexxus (Therappe, and Botanioil<-----used the most) and KeraCare (Moisturizing shampoo).
As for conditioners, I mix the Suave milk and honey with Nexxus Humectress. When I ran out of the Nexxus, I started using KeraCare Humecto. To me they both seem to do the same. I put the two on sit under the dryer for another 15min then rinse with cold water.
For leave-ins, I use one by KeraCare and the NTM Silk. Apply this, pull my hair back in a pony, add some Silk Elements hair gloss, put my scarf on and then lay it out for the night. The next morning I get up and flat iron it out.
So really that is it, I think just having patience's to deal with my hair at 17weeks post was what really helped. Because at times it could be so frustrating dealing with it because it would be so thick. No style would stay in it at all. So I think growth in patiences, led to growth in my hair.

I buy them from Sally's. They come in the little tubes, I think they are $.79 a piece. So I bought like 8 of them and emptied them into a bottle and poured a little bit of lavender oil in with it. It smells great, and really feels good on my scalp.

Believe me I am too. But I apply the Hair mayo first, and then once I'm done with adding that then I add the Jojoba oil and go sit under the dryer.
Hope that helps
