Waist Length by December 2005

[Faith]

I know I saw that Awapuhi post and was like oh no /images/graemlins/frown.gif /images/graemlins/laugh.gif Add #8 onto my ""have"" to get but really don't need it" list

Hey everyone, I'm new to this forum. I think I am going to jump on the Baggie Bandwagon too!

 

[ricochet]

I am in! I just hope I can stay away from the scissors for ONE MORE YEAR!

 

[WaterMoccasin]

Me too! (I know it may be a wild goose chase, but...)

Ditto!
I'm in! I'm currently a BSL girl (although I probably won't be after I get it 'trimmed' by a professional but better now than later).

I think waist length is 8-9 inches from bra-strap for me. When wet, my hair currently stretches to 5-6 inches within my waist. Basically, I'm not really sure how far I have to go, but 8 is a safe guess. Unfortunately, I usually only make/grow about 5-6 inches a year so this is DEFINITELY a challenge!

Waist length wasn't my goal by the way- I only want near-waistlength, ie about 3 inches above it. I definitely planned to reach that goal in 2005 so shooting for waist won't hurt!

bumping up for all

 

[Jewell]

I hope to be there by then...

 

[bellydancer]

i'm with you! I'm doing the baggie method that Chicoro uses and I'm liking it.

 

[Chin]

I'm in, hopefully I can gain about 10in.

I'm in! The way my hair is growing I might be there in about 3 months. I know I'm really close now. I just have to get my hair flat ironed to find out how close.

Your hair is looking wonderful Let it grow Let it grow let it grow!!!

Update- I'm out! If it wasn't a challenge before (and it was), it certainly would be now!
I did indeed get my hair 'trimmed' by a professional a week ago and I've been set back at least a year. I lost 4-5 inches, went from 1-2 inches below bra-strap to above bra-strap. From what I glimpsed in the mirror after my blowout, (I didn't have the heart to look too closely and measure accurately), I am now where I was a year ago. *sigh*

(Visual: my current avatar is my hair in January 2005. My hair in June 2005 pre-cut was at least 2 inches below that- at the photo cut off point. Now, it's about 2 inches shorter than what's in the avatar. I'll work up the courage to get an accurate measurement soon )

Anyway, good luck to the rest of you ladies!
I'll join the waist length by Summer 2006 challenge if there's one!

I don't think I've ever joined a challenge before so I'm not quite sure what is expected of me... I suppose waistlength by December is a realistic goal.

What the hey, why not? Count me in.

I've been doing the baggie, moisturizing, self trimm and I started MTG. I have gotten a good 2-3 inches in the last 1.5 months and most importantly retained it. Keep on growing that hair ladies we can do it.
Please stay away from the scissor happy stylists

 

[SherryLove]

i probably will make it by then, but my hair will be thin as heck.....oh well...

 

[AJamericanDiva]

Saddity, you know I've seen your hair in person. I definitely think you'll get there before December. Happy growing!!!

Oh Saddityone... Havent seen or heard from you in a minute girl! Where are you? Are we nearing our goals? We have one month left. I cant wait to find out just how many of us have reached our goals or at least come close.

 

[Lucia]

Well I just re-braided, and I forgot to straighten a section to see, but natural growth was a good inch (1-1.5") including shrinkage sot I know it's more than than straight I haven't been using MTG like I should. I know I'll be real close to WSL in Dec but I'll be offically checking in Jan.

 

[Lucia]

Hey,
where are all the challengers?
I'll take an official measurement when I unbraid, I only keep them in 2 months so that's end of Jan.

 

[Lucia]

I'm 1" past BBSL stretched, so that's @ WSL-2" stretched, that's closer than I've ever been. Hope everyone got close to or to thier goals.

 

[laketta]

I have no idea how long my hair is now. I have not officially checked since december. I will not check until about april or may.

 

[ChasingBliss]

Still looking for you girl.....hope everything is ok.

I bet she reached her goals. She had such beautiful hair.....

Me, I think I needs me another year,
