Waist Length 2013

so is anyone that is in this challenge taking Viviscal??? I am thinking of taking them now and I just wanted to get all the information I can. I have been up all night watching videos and reading reviews and trying to get the best post and so far it is ebay.

I also infused it in coconut oil.
burdock,cat nip,nettle,horsetail,thyme,hibiscus petals & saw palmetto seeds, neem,peppermint, hemp seeds,
Thats all I can think of. If its more I will update this thread when I get home.
After I make my tea I put the herbs in knee high and put it in my spray bottle then add the tea. I try to make it as concentrated as possible. I use the tea bags that is good for making 24-32oz of tea but I only make 8-10oz.
HTH Keep me updated on your progress
 
well I got to use my baby yesterday that I missed so bad Mixed Chicks so now I am getting ready to wash my hair to make sure I get all the silicone out of my hair and go back to shea moisture. I will have to wait until I get some money for the Viviscal.

I heard that marine collagen was the same thing & it's cheaper. Don't quote me on that b/c I haven't researched it. I just know someone from the board that takes Viviscal & she was the one who told me about it.
 
Hey ladies!

I hope everyone has been doing well! I haven't been able to post in awhile, my family was in town for the entire month of June and we stayed pretty busy. Im anxious to see everyones progress!

The first picture is from April the 2nd one is my current length today :)

MzSwift my husband measured it with his digital calipers and the space between is 1.35 inches. I'm glad you asked me cause I didn't even pay attention to the spaces but once you mentioned it, it was obvious it's a little bigger than an inch. Thanks ladies!!!

LexaKing I'm glad I popped into this thread. I'm so happy you measured the shirt. I designed the shirts, I'm going to redesign the length markers so that they're 1 inch apart. Thank you for checking!!!!!
 
LexaKing You go girl! Your progress has been great since you've started posting. :woot:

I am right on track for full WSL next year. I am so excited to swang it in a floppy fro or in straightened curls. :party:

ETA: Stillsaddity Welcome to the challenge and I love your screen name. :lol:
 
LexaKing- Your hair is beautiful and thanks for measuring! I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me because I swore your hair grew more than an inch :giggle:

Stillsaddity- :welcome:

againstallodds- Thanks for posting in here! I love your shirts and I would :love: for each line to be an inch apart so I don't have to muck around with the measuring tape to know how many inches it has grown between length checks :look: Please let us know when you get it re-designed, I would love to buy one ASAP :yep:
 
I posted this in the APL Challenge Thread:

So my hair appt had mixed results...the pre-poo SAVED my hair! If I didn't have it, my hair would have been a dry a$$ mess :nono: I hate going to new stylists :lol: My friend had gone to her & I liked how her hair looked, so I gave her a try! I told the stylist nothing with sulfates, silicones, or protein should be used on my hair. Shampoo was fine, but I reminded her that I wanted a protein free conditioner...she read the label & assured me it was. Um, my hair hated it. It caused it to tangle & I told her my hair didn't like it and asked her was she sure it didn't have protein? She agreed my hair hated it & said she didn't THINK it had it LOL Didn't she read the label? Cue my annoyance SMH It was a loooooong detangling session because of that...I guess I need to go back to bringing my own products! I thought it was cool bc we talked about what things I needed in my consultation a week before my appt, but lesson learned. She did a good job blow drying & flat ironing & applied heat protectant thoroughly in each section. Then she said I needed an 1/2 inch taken off, so I agreed. She took more (maybe an inch), but I'm not TOO upset about it :look: My ends were getting tangle-y in certain parts the last 2 months, so maybe they needed to go :yep: At least my ends are full now, but I'm back to being above APL :ohwell:
 
Bump bump BUMP ladies =)... I'm not in this challenge but I hope to join once I hit MBL in early 2013, fingers crossed, but I like to lurk and read whats going on and what y'all are going through, good and bad, at the longer lengths =) happy hair growing ladies
 
I have no faith in myself. I don't think Imma make it in 2013. It is so hard to retain length with all of the SSKs that tear my hair up :(

I would love a couple of more inches of hair but I am not going to jump through hurdles to get to it. If I make it, I make it. if I don't, I don't. Its been real.

:kisses: ms-gg I know it seems hard and you think you are having a lot of set backs. But just stop thinking about it. I have my set backs too but I have decided to not think about what didn't happen and always have positive thoughts that I will make it. You never know what is going to happen and I have stop with the measuring. You will get there. :kissing4:
 
I am so happy.... my hair vitamins came today. They tried to deliver them on Friday and I was not here so they left them at the office. They were there all weekend and I just thought this afternoon to check at the office to see if the package was there and it was lol. I have a MSM one because i didn't have the money to try Viviscal at this time. So I guess later I will try the fish protein another time.

it is best to take your products with you. at least your shampoo and conditioner. the first stylist i had that really cared about my hair started me to do this. i bought products from her salon and would bring them in to use. i switched to Keracare and would bring that in. my hair has become protein sensitive, so i am reluctant to let someone else use their products on me. but i am glad you got a nice trim!

ms-gg
you are trippin! i constantly have watched your progress over the years (big chops, etc..) i swear your hair will grow down to your butt, if you don't big chop again. you know exactly how your hair behaves, so you got this. you remind me so much of myself. we will cut some hair off, or try something in a minute! i am determined not to chop my hair off this time.
