Well for the most part i reached my goals, except the goal that I reaaaaaally wanted to reach, which was BSL length. I didnt make it because i got off of the Pill in Feb and because of the hormonal adjustment, I swear my hair grew soooo slowly for an entire 8 months, like .25 inch per month...
and it was shedding badly. Plus a whole year of weekly blowdrying and wearing my hair out daily...my hair suffered alot of breakage and dryness. I have switched to weekly rollersets and using henna and now my hair is FINALLY back to normal growing and it isn't shedding or breaking badly anymore. Yay!
Yes- 1st goal APL by Feb 06
Yes- thicker even hair (slowly dusting thin ends)
Yes-healthier hair (thanks to henna, i have minimal breakage and shedding)
No- BSL hair by Dec06. I just had Mizani_Mr trim an inch to make my hair even for the new year. I am just past a full APL (which was a disappointment), but I have maybe 1.5inches to go to reach BSL...
It was a ROUGH year but i feel i have finally found my staples and my routine and there isn't a need to overdo it and try everything... thank God!
