I thought I was the only one on here that doesn't have a regimen. That makes me feel better.
I also roller set . I'm not too good at leaving it alone though.

chin length

I want my bang to touch the bottom of my chin.

I'm measuring from the front of my hair because I'm thinking about cutting the back layers of my hair as my hair grows in to reduce layers. I'm one year from my BC (barber shaved) on 2/25/13 (also cut the back and the sides on 5/25/12).

 

[ogmistress]

What was your hair goal for 2012? APL

Did you make your goal? yes and I just went to make sure I wasn't lying to myself

What is your 2013 goal? 3"-4" longer than it is now

[ravenhairedcharm]

What was your hair goal for 2012? APL
Did you make your goal? Yes!
What is your 2013 goal? BSL, I'm giving myself till the end of this year. My longest layers are practically there already, but I need for the rest to catch up
What are you planning to do to reach your goal? Buns.

 

[virtuenow]

Thickly even hair. My hair is so many lengths right now; I know what great potential it has once it all reaches the same length. I plan to maintain the current length until I have caught all the shorter areas up. I am currently APL; by the end of this year, I want FULL APL and a huge bun the size of my head

 

[nomadpixi]

What was your hair goal for 2012?
Didn't have one, maybe that's why I lost all my progress to SSKs

Did you make your goal?
Not really, but as of January I am back at CBL stretched

What is your 2013 goal?
Eliminate SSKs, better manageability to hair, and to retain every inch of new growth

What are you planning to do to reach your goal?
I've made some discoveries this past year, so all has not been in vain:

1. our town has hard, acidic water-went out and got pH strips just to check.
Solution-Use rainwater where possible (spray bottles, etc) and clay shampoo hair more often

2. My hair likes yarn twists better than braid hair to grow as protective style, but I'm getting bored with them
Solution-keep looking for natural, protective hairstyles, while hair is in yarn twists for growth

3. My curls naturally elongate with AVJ and ACV, also henna, but NOT Nupur henna-has too much stuff in it.
Solution-Henna hair weekly with newly purchased Sudanese henna and AVJ only-review after one month

4. My hair LOVES Ghee (insert embarrassed look as smelling like butter all day)
solution-find essential oil that goes well with scent and use LOC method of

-Leave in: rainwater, Aubrey Organics Camellia conditioner, AVJ
-Oil: Jojoba or Hemp oil
-Creamy: Ghee (with essential oil) or Shea Butter to seal

5. Hair elongates well with Caramel treatment
Solution: DC with Caramel treatment weekly

Ultimate goal: No matter what the length, to be in love with the condition of my growing hair.

What was your hair goal for 2012? MBL

Did you make your goal? grazing but not full

What is your 2013 goal? to grow and maintain 5" more inches [WL/grazing WHIP]

What are you planning to do to reach your goal?
Keeping things simple, long term protective styles, more DCing and GHEing, paying closer attention to the hair that is in my rear crown area, because it is the shortest and coarsest area on my head.

 

[Aggie]

What was your hair goal for 2012?
Get rid of SSKs and rough split ends

Did you make your goal?
No, I just kept cutting away SSks and split ends for months.

What is your 2013 goal?
Nothing special, just maintain thick and healthy ends. Length doesn't matter so much anymore.

What are you planning to do to reach your goal?
Cowashing and/or water-rinsing and bunning daily seem to work well for me. Detangling every 2-3 days, deep condition about once a week, drink lots of water and maintain vitamin regimen.

 

[belldandy]

i would be happy with a couple inches, added thickness, less shedding.

 

[wannabelong]

I hope to be full MBL by the end of 2013.

 

[CaliiSwagg]

What was your hair goal for 2012? Keep my hair on my head

Did you make your goal? yep

What is your 2013 goal? APL

What are you planning to do to reach your goal? Upping my moisture/protein balance, PSing more, and keeping ssk's at bay.

 

[yuhlovevybz]

My goal for 2012 was shoulder length and I made it all thanks to boot camp. I really want a deployment for 2013 where I can do another short sew in and leave my hair alone. Can't see myself doing it when I actually have time for my hair, I hate weaves.

2013 goal is APL and then evening out my layers. Once I make BSL I plan on keeping a blunt cut on the front of my hair so it's even and full. I also want to gain more confidence wearing my hair natural in the summer to make growth that much easier.
