TWA Grow out Challenge

[lsubabiedee]

Well, I hadn't seen a check-in post in a while, so here it goes!!

So how is everyone doing??


Well, I've stopped cheating

and measuring, AND i have also simplified my routine a lot!

I'm only using shea butter right now and keeping my hair in big twists or braids for a week or more at a time...

Hope er'one else is doing great!

I'm not officially part of the challenge - but I am on a mission to grow out my hair after a major trim I had last month.

I'm using the same plan lsubabiedee - trying to keep my hair in twists. Currently I have my hair in twists but they don't seem to last longer than a week. I'm going to take them out tonight and wash my hair then redo them. I wonder how long I can keep this routine up.

 

[lsubabiedee]

dang, where everybody else at?


@Carefree, come on and join it!

Checkin' In.

Still in braids. Out of micro's and in individuals. Cornrows next. I'll take pictures when I take these out to mark my growth. I started off with an inch all around (no pics of the b/c) so we'll see how far I've come since Jan. 15th. Ciao family!!

Hi,
A little over a month since the bc. I CO wash pretty much everyday and wear scarves mostly. I am seeing progress and I can tell my hair is growing. Isubabiedee, how long did it take before you could wear that puff in your album? It is so pretty. So, are you really in the twa grow out challenge or just trying to support us because I see nothing teeny or weeny about your hair. Thanks for bumbing this thread.

My twa is growing like a weed w/ my stinky challenge regime. I went from 2" in 1/8/05 to 6" by 3/1/05. Thanx to Koffie and the other ladies on this site my hair won't be short for long. It has upstaged to the awkward inbetween stage. Not short, but not long enough for a pont tail...

My hair is doing okay. I don't think I was part of the original challenge, I hadn't chopped yet but I'm here now. I haven't updated since December though.

I'm trying to grow my TWA out by using braids.

I hope to have around 5-6 inches by October time.

[tropicexotic]

yay finally a challenge I can join! I wash my hair at least twice a week and do it in some sort of protective style... will probably braid my hair sometime in April.

Isubabiedee, is that you in your avatar, and if so is that all your hair? BECAUSE if so, I definitely would not consider you to have a TWA!!!
