Waist Length 2013

LimitedEdition said:
I went ot the salon and got a "trim." You don't need blunt ends for health. I have blunt ends and BSL hair now. I like the way it looks but Id rather have my length back. IDK if Ill make WSL this year. I mean I highly doubt it.
MixedGirl Its only hair. It will grow back but make sure its what you want. Regrets SUCK.

hmmm you're right, I have a trusted hairdresser at home who will only cut off the amount I want. Maybe I'll just ask her instead.
 
I am falling back in love with olive oil. I just pre poo with my spray bottle of aloe vera juice and conditioner and then added some olive oil all over my hair and made sure I pulled it through my hair and all over my ends. I will co wash when I get up for the day

Thats like 3 inches in 3 months?!
I've been doing this 'nail rubbing' thing a lot, (but i've recently stopped doing) and think that may have contributed. What do you guys think?

MixedGirl OMG!!!! you are just about WL looking real good. What is nail rubbing????
 
ok I just measured my grey again. it has been since 4-3-13 since I put henna in my hair so I have been counting my growth since then and I now have 1/2" of growth and I am only use to getting 1/4" per month.
I am trying to see if the supplements I am taking to doing me any good. So I will continue to count but don't know how long I will do this but hoping at least until the end of the yr.
 
Just popping in to ask: how long did it take for your hair to get to as long as it is now?? Have your regime changed a lot during that time?

I love this girl's hair. I watch her vids all the time.

well to answer your question myhairgrowstoo I shaved my hair off 12-2008 and I am bsl now and my regimen as been much the same through out. I only changed sealing. I was not doing that much until now. I took a break during the winter to see if it would make a difference in my growth or not or my retaining I should say or not and I find it is about the same. The only other thing that I added is supplements in the beginning I was not taking them.

So I am back to co washing everyday or every other day and I am back to wearing wng and it is doing me just fine. I don't care anymore about the time frame of me getting to my goal length, when I get there I will get there and that is good enough for me.
 
So I got the DE treatment and omg love it. I also hot about 2 inches cut off but i'm feeling happy and enjoying my hair for the first time in ages!

yaaa I got a inch in 2 months!!! I know it is much for most but I was only growing 1/4" per month for a long time.
 
Just peeking in. I have been lazy with my hair. I DO still deep condition weekly...but as far as co washing everyday and styling...i have been slacking.

I went to the beach for Memorial Day and played in the waves....after my hair dried my hair was SOOOOO soft! Is salt good for the hair? Im pretty sure i read that somewhere.
 
I don't know what salt water will do
I think it will be a very long sleep day for me because I am still up. did not mean to stay up this long but my body just will not go to sleep.

I have so much shrinkage this summer it is crazy. it looks so short. but I don't like my hair if I don't co wash everyday, I tried big hair the other day on second day hair or third don't remember but when the day was over I had so many knots it was crazy.
 
OMG!!! I started doing a search for a moisturizer that didn't have any protein in it because I was all out of whipped cream from hairveda and that is waiting for it to be shipped. so I found a thread with moisturizer suggestions and I started looking them up to see what their ingredients were. Curls cream brule was the one I found with no protein and it happen to be a curl definer as well. so I ran to CVS to get one so that I could try it out. I have to say that I love it. it not only moisturize my hair, it defines my curls as well and it does a great job at it.
I can tell there is no protein in it and my hair looks fuller, feels soft and bouncy. The price was right as well. I started to get 2 because that was the only 2 they had on the shelf and I don't like running back and forth to the store but I said lets just wait and see if I like it first. It's a keeper. I think it will help out with the strand knots as well.
 
Oh my goodness, in all my time using AOWC, I've never smelled anything like this... i think I was lucky before because this the two new bottles I got are FUNKY :/

I swear, this is the third worst smell I have ever come across (First is indigo, second is miso soup)

Am I going to use these bottles?? You darn skippy I am ... since I paid for them.

SMH
 
I am still hanging in there. I am trying my best not to do anymore counting until we get closer to the end of the year. It is great seeing everyone making their goal.
 
Checking in

:bdance:I'm thinkng that I'm gonna be done with this challenge in a couple of months
I think I've got about an inch- an inch and a half to go until WL so I'll wait until September to do a lenth check :)
 
I had a heap of shed hair come out my head this morning. Today was wash day and i hadn't detangled my hair since last Saturday. :blush:

I had a small dreadlock form on the side of my head and i lost a wad...a huge wad of hair! But my scalp feels SO much better!

Ive been neglecting my hair lately...well...as far as detangling.
 
Hair is in these tired braids haha.


But it's okay. I'll take them out and wear a twist/braid out for my mom's retirement party on Thursday.
