Mona, I posted in another thread about my transition from very thin hair, but I wanted to add that I did do a big chop. I know it's not the most popular method to grow hair, but it really did make a difference. The last 6 or so inches of my hair was the old, bleached hair that I tried to cover with rinses and eventually henna, but in my opinion, it was beyond saving. My hair grew really well once I figured out what I was doing, but those ends were frizzy and see-through and really scared me into thinking they would eventually split up the shaft and ruin the rest of my hair. I just got the scissors and hacked it off. I missed that length for a while, but it's the best thing I could have done to help with thickness, or lack thereof. Once I started with the shikakai oil and maintained my henna, I got new thicker hair.

I want in. I'm hoping to be there by June 08. I am 1 inch from apl.. Do you girls think I this is realistic?:look:

I'm in the same boat. Hm. Average growth is 6 inches per year, they say. Half inch a month. So...By Febuary, there's that 1 inch. March-April 2 inches. May-June, 3 inches.

So if all ends are retained, then yes, I believe so. I also believe in growth aids and the effects of vitamins/eating right, so all of those involved (even if you don't believe in growth aids, protecting your ends would be a world of help) I think we can do it!

Personally, I'm going to reach my goal of APL, see how long it takes from now to then, and measure out if I could...:) I hope to reach BSL by at least this time next year! HHG!

Thanks cuz...

but I don't think I'm going to be bc'ing though. Y'all would never see my brown *** again... :sekret:....I think I can still save what I have with a trim...

I will be implementing the henna though..:yep: Progess Pic in December 2008 to see if any of this worked...if not, will have to make peace with having healthy, but thin hair. Not everyone can be thick haired and not everyone can have thick ends, it's the luck of the draw. I'll have to work with what I have and be happy with it.

Thanks to everyone who offered advice. Appreciated. See ya back in the thread in Dec '08...

I'm just checking in. All is well in hair growing land. I just relaxed last week, I was 11 weeks post and relaxer stretching is doing wonders for my hair. Even after relaxing, my hair feels fuller. I am trying to not relax again until April. Wish me luck! I still feel that I am right on track.:grin:

I won't be poppin' my brastrap this year. My goal for this year is to make full, healthy APL length; then I can focus on BSL and beyond. I plan to use the rules for the LHCF bootcamp to get there (no heat, protective styling, DC with every wash, no trimming just dustings, baggying). Who else is set to make BSL in 08? I don't think there is a 'pop ya brastrap 08' thread yet so I thought I'd get an early start! (2008 is less than 8 months away-it'll be here before we know it) :lol:


BSL in 08!

Add my name to the list. I'm a newbie/ lurker has-been lol. so I know what's up. I'm at awkward stage right now but my hair grows pretty fast so, I should be bsl before 08 is over.:grin:
 
Yeey, my first post ever!

I'm hoping and praying for BSL by December 31, 2008 at 11:59 :yep:
I found a regimen that is working wonderfully and I'm not straying.

I'm 6'1" so it might take more than till dec 08 to make it but I'm optimistic : )


Nice to finally joining you ladies!

Hello,

I am getting confused. I thought I was in the BSL challenge as of 11/07 but noticed my name was not on the updated challenge list and then I noticed that you and Ineedhair appear to have the same challenge. Is this correct? I would like to join the challenge if I have not done so already. :blush: Thanks

Confused in OC
 
BSL FOR THE WIN
WIN WIN WIN!

i'm about 1/1.5 inch(es) from APL in the back

and about 5 inches from BSL
i just measured and my bra seems to be about
4-4.5 inches from my armpit

i set my goal for december 31st
but for some reason...
i'm getting (in my mind) august as a possible goal reach month

we'll see
either way...the vibes are still good!
