This is a spin-off to MissFallon's thread.
I was wondering if anyone else feel that they will quit their hair journey at a certain date or within a certain time frame? When did you start?
If you DON'T have a certain date/time frame where you want to quit, do you have a 'satisfactory length' that you will settle with? Or will you go on forever?
I am not talking about quitting taking care of the hair, because I know some things will always stay with you such as moisturizing, silk scarves, DCing, etc. But I am talking about stopping the "growing out" thing-via protective styling, buns, braids, weaves, wigs, or whatever you are doing to 'grow it out.' If you don't do anything different from pre-lhcf, then you can still answer.
I actually had a quit date set up. It was December 27, 2007. But since I cut my hair recently I may push it back to April 27, 2008, but that depends on where I am at the end of the summer. My ultimate goal is WSL but I am so sick of protective styles and feeling unattractive I think I may just be happy with a blunt MBL. I will even admit that I always feel anxious when I read some of the older board members who have reached their goals, and enjoy their hair and wear it down. I stalk their fotkis and I can't WAIT to be passed the "growing it out phase."
**Just a little disclaimer this is not a thread to reward quitting or to put down people who feel at their end of their hair journey, so please let's not go there and make people feel bad for how they feel. It is just to discuss, vent, or whatever, the end of our journeys.
