Waist Length 2013

Seamonster thank you I will. Feeling a little better and can walk on my feet now without them hurting so bad.

I have been taking care of my hair but can't wait to get home to wash all the build up out of my hair.

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.

Hope you hit that recovery stride soon!
 
Shadiyah Get well soonest!

DC my hair with a mix of Aphogee 2 min, Mane and Tail deep moisturizing conditioner and JBCO. My hair is pretty soft and manageable and I hardly lost any hair.
I intend to stretch my relaxer for my usual min of 26 weeks.
I also need to remember to take my vits.

My siggy is my new hair length update. I gained and retained .5-.75 of an inch in different parts of my hair. My ends are looking healthy still and I believe its been to M&S's EVERY night. Also I have taken my vitamins faithfully everyday for 2 months. Hopefully I will reach WL in 2013!

Get it girl!:woot:
 
Wow LexaKing
Your hair looks great!
I also believe in M&Sing daily. It keeps my ends from tangling.

Update: I'm taking down my cornrows that I've had in almost two weeks. I know better than to keep them in that long but fortunately, I'm a fingerdetangling pro :)

I'm gonna rock a puff tomorrow and then begin my mini braids installation.
 
Welp....

I'm just sitting here with DC in my head..i'm using my Novex Chocolate conditioner so i smell like chocolate pudding right now.

I am still having the same ole routine with my hair so...nothing has really changed. Boring...i know:look:
 
For some reason the right side of my hair always grows faster... You can see it in every picture! :lol: I normally sleep on that side too.
 
hey girls what's going on???

I am still massaging and about to henna which I started to hold off on but I see I have over 1/4" or 1/2" and I think that is great.

Hey Shadiyah :) Still doing good here. How are you feeling?
 
Still here. I have DC in my hair and will soon wash it out. I will probably put in medium to large braids with extension once it's dry

:lol: I see me and you are on the same page today! Well....i didn't really deep condition.....i just shampooed my hair and let the conditioner sit in my hair as i showered. I think i'm gettin into that mode where i don't really care to do so much to my hair.....all i know is that it requires water and conditioner and a good shampooing every week....and it has to be detangled no more than every 3 days:yep:

Besides that the regimen stays the same....i had been wearing an updo this week...i'll post pics later...its so simple tho...just a flat-side-twist bouffant in the front and either a french roll or a curly puff in the back.

I am SO excited that i can make a french roll tho....with my hair in its natural state! Lol! I didn't think it was long enough til i tried it...well...i had to stretch it out some with chunky twists to do it...but still:grin:
 
Hey all :wave:

I just joined by thanking the first post. In 2010 I definitely had no plans of changing anything about my hair. I'm doing a long-term transition now though. I've already cut about 3 inches since August 2011. I'm snipping slowly.

The goal is to cut all my texturised ends off in August 2014 but I think I can grow it back to WL (stretched) by the end of 2013. It's at BSL stretched now including texturised ends. I keep it curly since the flat iron and hairdryer are not good for my hair at all and moisturise with S-Curl. I also use oils (Vatika, castor, sunflower for prepoos, etc.).

Regimen will stay the same:
-Wash and condition 1x or 2x week with CON.
-Moisturise daily or as needed.
-My daily style is a braid-out updo for work.

We'll see how my hair progresses! I'll grow to WL for the challenge but I know that eventually I'll cut and maintain at MBL.
