Waist Length 2012 Challenge

I know Sunshyne from hairlista sells them. I guess if you go to hairlista.com you'll see them on the right hand side. I think Traycee's KISS boutique also has some. Those are the only ones I know of.

I just spent 40 dollars on a wig now off to buy a shirt:wallbash:

I don't know why I even asked.

I have to post pics too but can't wait to see more pics.

:needpics:
 
^^^I thought you were gonna start a separate thread for starting pics. I'll have to post mine when I get home. None on the work comp, but it is on my Fotki. Name is MissQuinn. Not many pics on there yet though...my bad.

That must have been one of the other 50-11 challenges you are in :lachen::lachen::lachen:

ohhh yeah! I found the shirts I was talking about since the work comps have the sites Femme suggested blocked(dangit). On maneandchic.com if you look at the top, click on "Shop Shirts" and its there. they're only $18.90 so that's not too bad.
 
Thanks for the warm welcome! So I took a few pics before I texlaxed but alas my lovely lady lumps and assorted body bumps made it more difficult than I would have thought.
My daughter finally caught me cursing while I deleted the umpteenth misclicked photo to confirm I'm dusting APL I just need to work to get to "full". To which I promptly told her to get her beautiful natural curls outta my face while I worked through my texlaxed tangles with a wide toothed comb and a grimace. She giggled as she and her curls danced away while telling me "You're right Mommie, you could never be natural you're too tender headed" <---This really happened but I'm not really upset about it. We celebrate each other's hair choices.

Add to that the fact that I am a gamer and had an impromptu raid last night and my braid out didn't come out as soft and beeuuutifuuul as I wanted but I'll post both pictures tonight when I get home.

$18.90 bites the dust NikkiQ :wallbash::wallbash::wallbash:

Air Dry to about 90%

I will be adding some Ceremides into my reggie this week and im going to cut down on heat, use every other week.

I also clarify and do a reconstructor once a month.

:grouphug3::grouphug3:Cant wait to see pics big momma. I'm still trying to getting mine uploaded.
 
Don't worry soldier. I'll be buying mine this week too. Did you get the one with the higher numbers or lower? I'm scared to get the numbers lower on the back b/c it might depress me when my hair is nowhere NEAR those lines :nono:

I got the lower ones. You will get there. :yep: Take pictures. It really helps. I am amazed at my comparison pics if I can only figure out how to upload them. :ohwell:
 
My Regimine from now to December 2010. WIGS! WIGS! WIGS! I will wear my handy dandy Extension Plus wig (been going strong for a year) until Christmas. DC cornrows twice a week with mane and tail, silicon mix, bed head dumb blonde or ion protein conditioner. Remove cornrows every 4-6 weeks deep condition with aohr and wash with hair one. For Christmas press hair and do a length check. After Christmas not sure yet....... thinking about EP sew in.

I'll be sure to take pics after each install. I'm in the HYH challenge too so they go hand in hand, but I plan on doing installs until I hit APL or BSB.
 
Alright everyone. So here is my starting pic. Please bare with me and the size. This is my first picture upload. I am quite excited to see my length. My hair grew, LOL. (Don't know why I thought it wouldn't.)

Gosh look at my back.

Congratulations on getting your picture uploaded! It looks as if you and I are starting about the same place. I forgot to take a picture last night of my braid out before I slapped my cap on so I'll just wait to take a picture after I rollerset and try the saran wrap technique on Sat.

Gosh look at my back.


I can't look at your back because I'm too busy trying to figure out who put a second butt directly beneath my shoulders.:blush:
 
If it's ok I would like to "reserve" a spot for my daughter in the challenge. I'm going to give her a subscription to the forums for being such a hard working young lady. She can post all of her own reggie's and such since she has been lurking on this board reading the forums etc since she decided to go natural. Hopefully she can get everything all set up tonight.
