My hair is clean and glistening with oils.:look:

Definitely working on thickening from now on. SL plus all the way round but too thin to want to wear it out. :sad: Wondering if it's my birth control pill as it definitely used to be a bit thicker.
 
i'm not going to do this flexi rod thing...i just don't want to be bothered with the manipulation. i know of a braider. i will ask before she goes into labor.. i could ask either one of my sister in laws to just cornrow my hair for me, so i can wear it like that under a wig for a month. i will ask tomorrow.
 
oh and this will be day 3 of taking my vitamins. gotta get my water in. been drinking too much dunkin donuts iced coffee... oh and i will be starting my protein drinks again tomorrow. i got some almond milk.
 
about to wash, do a light protein treatment, and dc my hair. i'm getting my hair braided in a couple of hours. i had my first protein drink this morning and i'm my water. please encourage me to keep up with this reggie. i know it will pay off. the boredom usually gets the best of me.

Definitely keep up with the healthy eating and drinking water. Yes your body will thank you for it in the long run. Not only that but your hair will too.

Keep up the good work ShortDub! You will see progress in no time, just do the protein and water and don't stress.
 
Dc'd with a homemade protein: egg, coconut oil, aloe Vera juice. Then bumble bee hairdressers oil conditioner to moisturize. So far so good. I've been shedding a lot, hopefully it's seasonal.
 
Hmmm. So I found an old post in the SL 2013 challenge. My hair has budged, but very slowly this year :cry2::lol:

2013
Bangs: to bottom lips
Crown: Ear - Chin:wallbash:
Mid layer: Neck -Shoulder
bottom layer: Past collar bone:spinning:
Back - Shoulder

2014
Bangs: Neck length
Crown: shoulder
Mid Layer: Shoulder
Bottom Layer: Still just past collar bone :wallbash:
Nape: Just past shoulder.

Back to looking after my hair. Found a coconut oil ORS hair repair cream that also has protein in. Hopefully it will keep my hair hydrated and strong.
 
Finally! !!!! An off the shelf leave in my hair likes. All others to this point cause breakage AND heavy shedding.

As I Am is a savior to my coils. :) The DC isnt half bad either. A bit pricey but really moisturizes when I leave it on an hour or more.

Cant wait to take down this latest crochet install to drench my hair in AIA goodness. Wow. Its been in hardcore PS for nearly three months. Will leave it out a while after this.... accidentally took out a piece of my edges on one side. No worries. Peach fuzz already growing in. :lol:

Also the back is finally past my trapezious muscle. The crown is kissing the nape I think... will know this weekend.

:yay: Glad you found something you like.

The AIA leave-in worked nicely in my hair as well. I also like the conditioner. The stylers also work well for me. It is one of my favorite lines.

Hey :wave:
That AIA leave in is the TRUTH!!
I discovered it a few months ago. It even worked wonders on this virgin BSS weave! Havent gotten my hands on the DC yet. The only reason I havent tried the rinse out yet is I have too many already. I like the double butter cream too but it smells really herbal.

Keep up the good work in here ladies!

I LOVE this HHJ!!
 
I'm back to wearing flat twist extensions for a while to give me and my hair a break. I may do these for a few more weeks but I'm not sure if I want to do flat twists, twist or rollersets. I will figure it out later.

This is me too. I was drinking my protein shakes faithfully, until I discovered flavored iced coffee and went completely off plan. Once I start with the sugar, I crave more sugar and the ball keeps rolling downhill. Gotta get back to my good place.

This is me too. My hair grows at very different rates or lengths which makes it look layered which would be fine if it was longer lol.
 
Hi Ladies. I haven't updated in a while but I'm still hanging in there. My hair is slowly growing--emphasis on the word slowly. I had been wearing my hair cornrowed under wigs but got bored. I opted for some box braids. The first pic is my hair after taking out my cornrows. It is very very very uneven. The front comes to my bottom lip and my temples are at my collarbone. I didn't measure much but I will when I take my braids out at the end of October.

*side note: I watched a video on youtube and this girl had the best tiny Senegalese twists I have seen to date. So you already know, when these braids come out those twists are going in.
