Your hair looks wonderful HT :yep:

I would :love: for my hair to even look 20% close to what your hair looks like now.

Healthy, thick, APL hair. That's all I want. I've got the healthy, I've got the APL, but getting it thicker is hella elusive :ohwell:.

Girl Mona, you should check out my fotki and see how thick Mega Tek cell rebuilder made my thin dull lifeless hair. I just started using jason natural Thin to Thick Scalp and Hair Therapy Poo and Conditioner with Biotin and Panthenol in it. I've used ththe poo and con twice now and I absolutely :love: the way they make my hair feel and look. You should try it out:yep:.
 
I am still tenaciously holding on to the hopes and dreams of achieving BSL by December this year. I am about 2 inches away right now.

Thank you. I actually tried Mega Tek in 2004 and yes, I have Jason's in the stash already.

Just going to go back to implementing ayurvedic products in my regimen that were working before I fell off for five months. I have been using again since late June along with more natural based products and my hair is starting to slowly turn back around again. So just going to keep rolling with this for awhile and see if it makes a difference over the coming months.

Thanks again. :)

2 inches by December sounds incredibly reasonable, even almost a sure bet. Keep up the faith.

Yeah I'm still using ayurveda powder rinses as well, in fact, I just did a tea rinse of kalpi tone, bhringraj, amla, and brahmi powders yesterday. Nice. I really love these powders too.
 
BUMP.... BUMP.....BUMP

Lately I haven't been able to retain my growth b/c of shedding and breakage from too much moisture and not enough of protein balance :nono:. I believe I have two and a half more inches before I reach BSL, that's not including my sides though since they grow so darn slow :wallbash:. I am hoping to retain most of my growth from now on so that I could make it to BSL by or before the year is out :grin:.

BSL .... BSL..... BSL :woot:
 
i would hope that i will be bsl by the end of december. im almost touching the top of my bs now but i dont want to claim it until i am at the bottom of the strap.

chebaby, the bottom of your bra strap is actually MBL (mid back length). A lot of people are confused about where MBL really is and that's where it is, Okay honey:yep:?
 
By the way, I don't think that I will make BSL this year at all. Thankfully I joned the BSL 2009 challenge as well just in case. I do feel that I will make BSL by April 2009 however. So with that said, I think that I have to gracefully bow out of this challenge.
 
I actually did not sign up for this challenge because my goal was to get to apl by the end of the year and I think I may make bsl too, I have like 2 inches to go...Its good being 5'2...

don't you dare bow out! The Fat Lady has not sung yet, and you've got 3 months to get it goin'. "Aggie's hair, i'm talking to you, you will grow now! You will reach her bra strap by Christmas and you must obey me! In Jesus' Name, Amen!!" Just for you, hon, now keep me posted, okay?
 
Will probably make it this year, but i'll make BSL with raggedy ends:nono:

I wont claim it till mid next year when it looks a bit more lush
 
Still hanging in there, come on bsl!!! I am cowashing daily and doing deep condishes, sitting with stinky garlic oil in my hair!! The things we do for our hair!!

add me to the list of confused people...
Where exactly can we find out these measurements...
(i know there was a thread about that somewhere around here.. but i don't remember it being conclusive)
Apl-armpits
Bsl-*anywhere on acceptably fitting brastrap
Mbl- *the region between brastrap and waist
Waistlength-* at the point where your torso dips inwards to make your waistline


*denotes what I 'thought' was true...

hook up the knowledge girls....

:thankyou:BBB, these are :flowers:. I will keep motivated. I have my hair in cornrows until December to keep my hands out of it. I have not been retaining as much hair as I wanted so I have to try and manipulate my hair as little as possible. I think this is the way to do it for now. I am also wearing wigs on top of my cornrows when I step out of the house.

Lol, Thanks aggie for the attachment, I know it well;

The only thing is, it doesn't NOT say mbl is at a certain location on your back, especially since the picture is of the front.


So whether or not MBL is at bottom of one's brastrap or below is still debatable...
Just wanted to help clear things up for all those new to the hair measuring system and trying to attain BSL, MBL and beyond.
 
I am using my shoulder blade to measure. I hope to make it by December. I am co washing daily/ every other and on low manipulation.

Yeah I know so the easiest way is to put on your bra and where the line is in the front, just turn around and it should be right at the bottom end of your bra. I know that some people's bra strap goes higher up in the back but that's when it's not fitting as it should. The bottom of my bra goes straight across my back in a parallel line and does not go up in the centre (rear) which is as it should be. In other words I don't adjust my bra straps so tight and high at the back that the bra clasp area goes up in the centre back area. And this is where MBL is on me for sure. HTH.
