But...But......But why?:sad:
 
I just had to tell you all this I know that I said yesterday how my curls were popping from the new trim. but forreal they are the best. even the front that was straight is curling now.

I see that I have to keep up with my trims because it really seem to be good for my hair and like they say it allows your hair to get more oxygen.

SincerelyBeautiful congrats!!!

ScorpioLove welcome

Meritamen I am so sorry to hair that. I think you should continue you never know how far you may get.
 
I am just concentrating on getting/keeping my shoulder length full from the scalp, and attaining a thick APL for now.

Congratulations SincerelyBeautiful looking forward to seeing your pictures.

Meritamen The longest my hair has ever been is Full APL, grazing shoulder blade. I really have no idea if my hair can make this goal, ever lol, when I go to YT, I don't see very many WL African American of any hair texture. Who knows where this journey will take us. I like your siggie picture.

ETA: I don't know too many WL. I live in a mostly white area, with a lot of Asians. Very few waist length lots of BSL, grazing MBL. But those thick pretty trimmed waist length I see on LHCF :nono:

Thanks ladies but I don't think I'm gonna make it to WL in 2013, maybe 2014. I'm slowing my roll and focusing on making it to APL by December 2012 and then BSL in 2013. So, yeah, my second year of growing out my hair has been one setback after another. Two months away from my 2nd year anniversary and I still have 3 inches go before I make it to APL. I've been waiting on those 3 inches to grow in forever now! :crybaby: I just want some long hair cascading down my back already.
Ok, full stop. I'm just going to make a blog post to vent instead of complaining on 50-11 threads. :lol: Growing my hair is just a hobby but it's starting to get on my nerves.
... Anyway, I'll stay in the thread as an "unofficial" member rooting you ladies on.
 
^^I understand!:hug3:

Maybe too you wanna give your hair a break....like not focus on it for a while...just do a simple regimen like wash 1-2x out the week and do your deep condition and leave it alone. Whenever i get too anxious about hair growth i try to focus on doing something else...and then when i decide to finally go back to focusing on it...i see the progress:yep:

You are always welcomed here tho!:)
 
I just sulfate shampooed and i am currently deep conditioning with my Oyin Honey Hemp...i LOVE the smell and what it does!:love: It's a happy,wholesome...makes me feel healthy scent:grin: It smells like a Dreamsicle!:lick:

I am gonna put my hair in chunky twists for a chunky twistout fro....and i think im gonna go and get me something to eat...i want some shrimp fried rice with soy sauce!:lick:

Congratulations SincerelyBeautiful on reaching APL. Looking forward to seeing the pics.
 
well I have been leaving more and more conditioner in my hair after the last rinse now. I still use the mixed chicks under it but I wanted to try this curly girl method or tightly curled because I still use cones but I wanted to try this to see how it would work for me.

I also been searching and destroying these knots on the ends. I find that the hairs that been causing frizz have knots on the end of them so I have just been doing that thru out the night.
 
Hair day in my house. I'm ready to wig it for another week.
A new, well-paying job is in my future. This one is costing me a lot of years off of my life!

My hair is about MBL 3 years after my BC. I'm joining! So far I've just been alternating with Matrix So Silver shampoo (for whitening), and leaving Organix Brazilian Keratin Conditioner & the Awapuhi Ginger restorative mask, vegan mayo, organic unrefined coconut oil.... any suggestions? I don't use heat (yet) lol

Hey!:welcome: I'm just curious...what are you whitening your hair for? I rarely hear of ppl using whitening shampoos...
 
well I am in the hospital but I brought all my goodies with me. I have changed over to no sulfate shampoo and loving the oranix macadamia oil. love it so far and I have tried it on my family hair. I am working on no cones conditioner but will not be leaving cones alone totally because mixed chicks leave in. I leave the conditioner in my hair now and then put the mixed chicks leave in over it. It is working out just fine right now.

I co washed my hair because I left for the hospital and I left it straight so it would be easier to take care of my hair covered. I apply the conditioner to it day and night and coconut oil twist the ends and cover it back up. I will be in here for 5 days so that will be a long rest for my hair.
 
well I just sprayed my hair with my water aloe vera mix and placed conditioner up and down my hair and pulled it back. I may rinse it when I wash up once I come back from my MRI in the morning.
 
Ok so I have been super lazy for the past 3 days. I have done absolutely nothing but wear my satin bonnet smh....I know, I'm ashamed ladies. So today I moisturized and sealed and threw my hair back into a low pony. I been really wanting braids. Maybe kinky twists or box braids. Something to keep my ends completely hidden and non touchable for at least two to three months. My hair grows very well with braids. So I really been thinking about getting them. Plus it's about to get hella hot outside so braids is a great option, especially when u just wanna get up and go!
