He button wasn't enough

After reading the OP I realize I was doing this all along without knowing before I even new about vision boards. I did C&G and my weave was always midback to WL and looking at superlonghaired fotki and YTs keeping my hair moist and seal regular trims and then I achieved that so this time Ill do this again but using your example.

Hi Ladies,
As the journey continues my final top layer has reached hip just barely. This is the layer that is really thin. There is a bulk at only shoulder blade then thin to hip. The good news is that that bulk was only at shoulder last year so it is slowly moving down the length. The shedding has really dropped to what may be normal and that makes me happy.
So my goal for 2012 is to get this bulk to waist and a thicker canopy ends at hip. My next check in I may do a circumference measure and monitor the thickening that way.
Don't think I will try to trim and maintain there is just to much of a gap from ends to bulk and the more short hairs to tangle with longer ones does not help.
This journey of getting the bulk of the canopy to BCL will take me awhile so I will be here.
So hope every one can report good growth

So I think I finally made crackin
Since I'm in India and my flat iron doesnt work here (well it can but then it will blow up and I spent too much money to have that mess blow up) so I havent done any pix. I will try to get someone to help me take a stretched pic though.
I'm hungry....

So it turns out I'm only crackin when my hair is under running water
I guess I'm in some magical land between hbl and crackin??? I have no clue.
The gap in the middle is from me washing in 2 half's. I didnt detangle, just rinsed, oiled and moisturized.

Ok I am going to use the mysterious word of ..... I have some lead hairs from my crown area ( my shortest layer) touching BCL, verticle smile or Crakin. 
I was actually thinking that shed had my growth cycle so messed up that I was stuck with the layers and no more growth. Whew! So downward I go. The bulk is still a ways off but this tell me that area of my head still can make it to longer lengths. The few strands measured at 30 inches long. Seams long but barely touched BCL I just have to be deligent in my routine.

Old regimen update
http://www.longhaircareforum.com/showpost.php?p=12375613&postcount=12
new regimen
I'm still using the same products, same conditioners for DC, CW, and leave ins, except not using giovanni anymore, just AOHSR, AOGPB, AOWC, EVCO, Brhami oil for scalp massages.
I use WC or KCKT and KCCC or Eco styler for wash and gos.
I do S&D's on my splits and SSK's (very few) every 3-4 months to keep my ends fresh and reduce pulling out hair.

Awe.
It was an incredible sacrifice. Hang on to that while your hair grows back. You'll have it all back in no time.

It took 3mos for me to miss it so I assume I will survive. It's that awkward moment where my hair just looks funny so I want it to hurry up and be long enough for a bun again or shave it off again lol. I'm hanging in there though!
