Nice progress ladies. Congrats to those who made or are very close to WL. I guess I should join unofficially since I'm transitioning but without a BC. I'm grazing MBL and I think I might need about 5 more inches or so.
Oh well.
Oh well.

I am officially joining this challenge. At the rate that I'm going, and with no setbackspray
My growth last month is amazing. check out my siggy.
Dang you hair grows super fast! Has it always been this way or do you have a special reggie?

Here I grow again!
It's been moving along pretty quickly since I started my HJ in January. Before that, I never really paid attention to my hair. I took horrible care of it and, knowing what I know now, am amazed that I have ANY. I've never been past APL but usually get bored with my hair and have it cut, depending on whatever style is out. And prior to LHCF, my bathroom floor used to be covered in broken hairs every time I combed my hair. But because I still seemed to have lots of hair, it didn't really bother me.
So I think my hair is very grateful that I'm taking care of it. I am taking supplements, using a homemade sulfur mix and using no heat so, that may have something to do with the pace too.
In any case, my reggie is in my blog. It's only special in the sense that I'm doing anything at all.
I've grown at least 5 inches in almost 4 months. Can't explain it but, I'm SHO gonna roll with it and believe it is normal for me. I think my hair is trying to hurry up and grow before I screw it all up again.

Have any of you ever had the feeling that your hair grew but you just don't have the pics to back it up? That is exactly how I feel right now. I know my hair has grown since January but I don't feel the pics show any progress.
1. I can now feel my hair on my back
2. Toss my hair all on one side
and a few other things i notice....
How how you guys think it will take me to get to WL and full WL from here?
*Please excuse the poor picture quality.

Mz.MoMo: I don't think you will be disappointed when you do your length check. Aside from the fact that you were so close at the last check in you have also outside confirmation. I can't wait to see your progress!
a_ caribbean_dream: I agree with Optimus_Prime you look like you are right there. I measure WL from the smallest part of the torso and your hair looks like it hangs right at the smallest part of your torso. Congrats!
How is everyone else doing? We have already had a few ladies reach their goals this year. Are there any other ladies who think you have already hit WL?
I am really close. I think I might reach WL by the end of May but if not I will definitely be there by June

I would like to unofficially join. I think I have about 3 inches til wl. I think because I'm just going by my length in the shower. I'm 5 months post so I'm not sure if i'm overestimating or underestimating. Everyone's hair looks great and I agree a carribean dream you are just about there.

Beautiful! You're touching WL now, but maybe a few months, more or less to reach full WL.
I don't know how my hair is doing because it's braided up for the next couple of months but judging by the roots, it seems to be growing a tiny bit faster than usual.

Thanks everyone!!! I don't know if I'm in denial or something. lol
I guess I would classify myself as "grazing WL" hopefully by the end of this year it will be full WL and healthy.
The beauty of this "milestone" is the fact that I have almost no split ends!!!!! I have been able to get to this length without my ends being in bad shape, and to me that's the best part.

That's AWESOME!!!
I'm good, I straightened and saw that I'm definitely about 1.5 - 2 inches from WL!! So excited. MY ends are in decent shape as well, but I am itching to wash and twist up my hair instead of having it straight like this.
erplexed Maybe tomorrow.

2inches??? i thought you were there already! it looked it to me!!!
so, come next month i'm going to see whether or not i need to trim. i hope i dont have to, but if i do, i must do what i must.
i'm also trying to decide if i should straighten my hair by flat ironing or by a roller wrap. i dunno. if i do a roller wrap then i need to decide if i should do it or if i should get it done lol

From your pics I think you're already there. Congrats.
I feel like my hair hasn't moved an inch from MBL. Maybe I'll see some progress by late summer.

Hey Ladies
Well I have an unfortunate update. I had to cut off an inch this week and will be cutting off another inch in August (it sucks too because I was about a half an inch from WL). I have about two inches of past heat damage that I thought I would be able to trim once I reached my goal. My ends were looking great but my hair started to break at the line of demarcation.
I decided that it was better to cut it all off this year rather than wait. I will still make WL this year but it will be toward the end of the year rather than next month. I will probably not post a progress pic next month because my hair will be about the same length as it was in the last pic.
Happy Hair Growing Ladies

Nah, almost. I think in July if all goes well I'll be there! I am also thinking about trimming so I dunno what that'll do for my progress.
Do you generally do roller wraps on your own? Try it out, if you fail miserably you can go have it done!
