What's your length now?

 

[Lucia]

New updated regimen as of 10/2011
Simplified and went back to my tried andtrue stuff.

Pre cowash: evco AOHSR or AOGBP DC on dry hair heat cap or under steamer

CW with AOHSR detangle (ends to roots w/ wide tooth comb) in shower, only detangle with oiled hair, wet damp, full of conditioner

Apply evco to damp hair then seal with conditioner AOHSR or Giovanni Direct
baggie natural hair nightly during winter

For straight hair some evco on length and ends, satiny bonnet @ night

Vatika enriched coconut oil, mahabrhingaraj coconut oil scalp massage nightly

These oils don't have Mineral oil or chemical preservatives all natural
Bringaraj and brhami powders weekly

Airdry 2-4 braids

Wng KCKT KCCC or conditioner and Eco Styler

Styles: Mostly PS baggy bun, braids, twists


Old regimen below vitamins the same though.


I did my last cut Nov 2010 and cut about 2-3 inches off, and now my hair is blunt BSL. No cuts, trims until at least 6 months have passed.

Current Length: BSL
Stg full WL some longer lead hairs @ HL
LTG TL

Regimen
CW whenever I feel like it usually weekly
Daily or every 2 days moisturize and seal evco or
EVOO/WGO mix then STCC and Shea butter
Aloe Vera gel for frizzy edges. PS all the time
3x/week @ night scalp massage with Brahmi oil
DC when I need
Protein when I need
Trims 2x year 2" max

Products
Suave Tropical Coconut Conditioner STCC
EVCO
Organic Brahmi sesame oil
EVOO/WGO 50/50 mix(sometimes in winter)
Aloe Vera gel
East African shea butter
Kinky Curly Knot Today and
Kinky Curly Curling Custard for twist-out/Wash n Go's

Vitamins
I take these 1st 2 daily:
Essential Prenatal Vitamins-Whole Foods Brand
Vit C 1000-1500 mg
The rest 1-2x/week:
Amino Acid Complex
Omega 3-6-9
Calcium
Liquid Vitamin B12

Essential Amino Acids+ B12 +B complex vits=HF 37, so save your money.
I switched out my reg multi for prenatal I used to take it cause it's basically Bargello's vitamin regimen (in my journal blog) in 1 pill and I got superfast length results taking it. The reason I take Vit C daily is the body doesn't absorb other vitmins if Vit C isn't present as well.

More detail in fotki products album
I claim TL!

ETA: My main PS will be well moisturized, oiled and buttered baggied bun, covered with clean stocking during the day, no phonytails

Pic is dry hair brushed/frizzed out.

[mariofmagdal]

I want to join. I will post the rest in a few days. Have to get an updated picture. Have not had one since Sept. Thanks for starting this thread.

 

[LoveLongLocks]

Im tired of Challenges and my Camera broke .

I can't lie, I feel a little burnt out from the Hip Length Challenge... I felt pressure trying to make my hair perform

, and putting my back fat out there for everyone . But it made me conscious of taking better care of my hair . So, I here I am.
I will do my best to update and all, but if I don't erplexed ....
I will still be rooting for all of you .
Here goes... Starting pic.


"What you have or don't have in your hair in the pic? "
Maxiglide Flat Iron/ Coconut Oil
What your regimen is?
My Regimen is Weekly Washing, Conditioning, (Deep when time permits) Wash and go's - up or down. Rare Flat Iron Sessions. Occasional braids Single or Cornrows.
Update:
I am at this time trying to stretch my washes to Bi-Weekly Washes, which will include deep conditioning every time. And also I will begin using deep conditioning as a leave in for maximum retention.

Let's do this Ladies!!! "On & Crackin"

 

[Mrs. Verde]

from the sidelines. Good luck ladies!!

 

[AngelDoll]

I will try this again. A couple of months ago, I had a few strands at TL but I trimmed them because they looked too thin. No more trimming for a while.

Good luck ladies!!!

ETA: Small update pic in siggy (TOPL).

Beautiful hair, thanks for signing up.
I've been sick, just spreading myself too thin I think so my updates might be a little late. You all know my hair is thick so I'm not washing it this week until I'm over this cold.

 

[Janet']

If I ever *ahem* WHEN I get to this point...yikes...I love all this hair!!!!

 

[Lucia]

Where's everyone's regimens, goals, styles and what they will be doing for the new year to achieve their hairgolas?
