Hi ladies, this is a spinoff of an earlier thread, but how do you break a hair plateau? I don't think my situation is anywhere near gloom and doom; in fact, I'm very thankful what I've gotten so far.
But I guess I'm comparing my growth to the inital growth. In the first 4 months of LHCF, I went from APL to BSL. Four more months have passed and I'm still hovering around BSL. I did a slight trim in Nov. about a 1/2 inch (unnecessarily), and I dusted yesterday for the first time since then(necessary). I've never been a bunner because I feel like it make my ends dry and crinkled (if that makes sense) so I'm scared to do that thinking it might create a setback. However, I'm a weekly rollersetter, DC'er, moisturize/sealer, vitamin taker and I do keep my hair up off my clothing and protect at night. The only thing that's changed is that my exercise has decreased because I was sick for a few months. I'm gonna start ramping that up again ASAP.
I know that my hair is growing overall because my layers are now past SL, but I guess I was expecting a drastic jump like I experienced in the first four months of this journey. I also get my annual growth spurts in the summer months, so I'm looking forward to that too.
Any tips for breaking a hair plateau? I'm still hoping to reach my goals this year.
