Hi Lovely Ladies,

I won't make this a long post...

Shout out to dontspeakdefeat aka www.tamikabell.com for being the bestest hair stylist in the world!!! :yep: :yep:

If you recall this thread made in July 2011:

http://www.longhaircareforum.com/showthread.php?t=555965

You know how "defeated" I was with my blonde hair color leading to a lack of retention. I knew that I was going to go darker but because life happened, I just got around to doing it yesterday!!!

So, here are the pics...I'm still getting used to the color, but I do like it and hopefully, this will put me on the fast track for retention!!

And ladies, let me just tell you...NEVER GIVE UP!!! We all have goals and we all have setbacks...I'm still fighting through mine, but I'm not going to give up my goal--I know that I should've been WL by now but I'm not--and that's okay...cause I'll get there...and so will you!!!


Thanks for looking ladies and have a fab Saturday!!!!

Baby girl that color that hair is gawgeous!!!!!!!!!!

So in July you were at the 1 mark on your length check tee & now you hovering around 4! Looks like you already made a comeback Janet'

CONGRATS!
 
I always liked your blond hair but this is gorgeous! I hope you reach all your goals. Thanks for sharing.
 
Oh yes! This is much better! The blonde was nice, but this color is show-stopping beautiful on you! Love it!
 
Oh, that is gorgeous. I never really comment on picture updates, but the colour and the shape /cut of your hair is just stunning
 
Wow Janet, that looks so nice. You make me want to dye my hair... but I said I would wait till I got to BSL first but, boy you are making me tempted.

Oh, and you are making great progress.
 
Gorgeous.. I was waiting for you to post an update.. Your hair looks perfect! First you got your thickness..now you go your length..Do you attribute your thickness to taking a break from straightening? castor oil? other products? Please tell us.. :yep:
 
Gorgeous color and you are making wonderful progress! I really need to start tracking my retention with a length check shirt. :yep:
 
:congrats: on your progress hon!

Your hair is gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!! I :love: the red on you :yep: I want to get red color when I reach WL :look: Your hair has truly taken off since July....I need some growth like that :lol: So do share what you have been doing in the past several months to reach your hair goals? Because it is obvious working for you...you truly have inspired me :grin:
 
Beautiful hair. I know that defeat feeling, I am starting to feel it some times with my hair. I have ben getting this feeling that it should be longer than it is and that its not growing as fast as it used to.
Thanks for the words of encouragement.
 
very pretty. I think the red really compliments your skin tone. And looks like you are well on your way to reaching your length goal.
