Hey lovely ladies! I tried out this style on youtube and loved it. I figure I'll wear it for two weeks (one week twisted/one week twistout) and spritzing to keep moisturized.

It took me FOREVER to finish, I went to bed after midnight not before taking pictures ofcourse I'll post them when I get home... within an hour (I'm in the UK so work's over)
They looked long yesterday... today, once I wet them - they now look half the length
hairsothick&long, you have at least 2ce the amount of hair I have on my head... seriously!

I already posted these pics in the BC to waistlength thread, but in case not everybody's checking there, I wanted to share this (lengthier version 
) with you too!
First, a big
to Cch for suggesting silicone free products!! They've made the biggest difference in how my hair feels and acts, and I don't have to keep using shampoo to get the buildup out of my hair.
Maybe you remember how happy I was about my frizzy wash and go..
But luckily I wasn't walking around like that for long.
I shampooed my hair with ORS creamy aloe and from then on only used silicone free products. I noticed the difference instantly, but it kept getting better until a month later it would look like this:
Both are completely dry wash and goes with Yes to Cucumbers which I left in, sealed with a bit of afroveda oil.
Looking at the pics now, they're not that baffling, but considering I was using the same products and method to style, I see a pretty good difference.

Thanks everyone! My hair is all different lengths but its about 3 inches give or take. I think it looks a lot "bigger" than what it is because of the thickness. I'm normally a slow grower but for some reason its growing a little better this time a round.

Thank you sooo much!!
I look forward to your WnG!
And yes, I love Yes to Cucumbers. I'm quite the PJ but that stuff is great, one of my few staples.
It makes my curls fall into larger clumps in stead of smaller ones as with other conditioners, and it has lots of slip even though it doesn't have a single cone.
Lovely. What are the sillicone products you're using? You can see the difference.

Shrinkage o shrinkage! My twists look about 3 inches long after my cowash this morning 
Maybe in a year, they'll look 6 inches long...?
GP, your hair's beautiful

Thank you ladies!! 
Actually, it's the silicone free products that are helping.
My favorite is Yes to Cucumbers (no cones and great ingredients), you can get it at De Tuinen and Sephora (usually in V&D).
I also order from iherb, my favorites from there are the Aubrey Organics conditioners.

Okay ladies I'm crazy about my ends so what I had did wasssssss, lol...
I washed myhair and blow dried it, OMG, its so freaking thick man. I almost cried. I'm not doing this again for a long time. But anyway, curious, I took out my flat iron and straightened some hair. I was shocked but I was able to get it bone straight with only one pass on like 290 degrees temp. I don't know if that's good or bad, but it was like a silky press. So I did this b/c I wanted to see how uneven my hair is. I do plan on wearing it straight once in a while when it gets long so I guess I'd just like to cut it now and get it on out the way.
I have nothing else to add to this thread at the moment, lol... I think I'll post pics of my hair after I straighten it

My WnG lasted 5 days with KCKT and KCCC. When I used Long aid curl activator, ecostyler, Miss Jessie's by day two or three it looked a mess but Kinky Curly products worked really well for me

I just re-twisted my hair. I deep conditioned and twisted less than a week ago but for some reason my twists were looking raggedy. I think I forgot to where a scarf to bed a couple of nights. Anyways, one by one I re-did them, spritzing with water, then s-curl, layering in Miracle Oil Moisturizer, followed by oil. My hair looks so refreshed and pretty. And I am thrilled too because it's just one month since my bc and I can really see growth, I am so excited. I hoped to be shoulder length by December and I am very confident I will reach my goal!
