1) Yes, unless i cut again before december, still debating

2) What was your lenghth in Jan 2011?
a bit below wl

3) What is your goal length for this year?
Hip Length for june and dec

4) What is your current length?
hip length

I wish it was full hl but i wasn't really expecting that
 
If I can miraculously grow 3 inches by December 31st, then yes! Realistically I know it would take me 5-6 months at my growth rate, and that's if I wasn't experiencing split ends or breakage.

I read on another forum that someone grew several inches in 2-3 months by taking L-cysteine and biotin. I think I'm going to give it go to see if that will help me out any.
 
I just did a strand pull test. I must have had one of my surprise growth spurts because I am grazing shoulder blade length.

Just two inches above BSL, I might make it? Going to keep using these dandruff shampoos daily.

candy626 What did you say about L-cysteine? Links?:grin:
 
1) Yes or No? That's a big fat maybe.
2) What was your length in Jan 2011? I think it was BSB.
3) What is your goal length for this year? MBL and WL.
4) What is your current length? MBL. If I really crank it on the sulfur mix, I might scrape WL at the end of the year.
 
1) Yes or No: Yes, I already reached my goal length for 2011.
2) What was your length in Jan 2011? BSL
3) What is your goal length for this year? MBL
4) What is your current length? MBL & I hope to make WL by May 2012. I don't see it happening though
 
YASSSSS B*TCHES!!! :grin:

1) Yes or No Yasss!
2) What was your lenghth in Jan 2011? SL i think... or full NL not certain now
3) What is your goal length for this year? APL (don't even care if it's just grazing y'all. chart bearers & length police be damned! -- not making any threads 'bout it doe :look:)
4) What is your current length? sooooooooooo close to APL i can taste it (9" at nape)
 
1) Yes or No YES
2) What was your lenghth in Jan 2011? Um I don't know guys, APL almost BSL...maybe
3) What is your goal length for this year? My goal was originally APL, but since it kept growing I said BSL and I made it baby!
4) What is your current length? I'm hanging around BSL and I noticed the back middle is slightly below that when straightened. I want Mid Back Length now...why not? (lol)


Just as a side note. I started off around ear length to shoulder length. I never had hair longer than that except as a child....so to make it this far, I have surpassed any goal I set for myself but only because of you - LHCF!!!.

What has helped? Low manipulation, bunning, B&B Oil Moisturizer/Protein Moisturizer, Keracare Humecto Conditioner, Redken Smooth Down Conditioner, Deep conditioning every week, putting down the blow dryer (I use the tension method or hooded dryer and retain length), stretching my texlaxer to 12-16 weeks....

What has really helped? TEXLAXING instead of being natural (since I wear it straight I retain length WAY better), leaving my hair alone and taking vitamins and doing my hair myself (despite my friends suggestions that I should "treat" myself to a salon visit - well....they um, don't have any hair...).

Last but not least - I use Mane & Tail Conditioner as a prepoo and conditioner rinse with EVERY wash. It works!
 
1) I sure hope so.
2) I was EL in Jan 2011 (siggy pic, is that EL?)
3) SL is my goal length for this year.
4) I'm currently NL.
 
No, not to my satisfaction. My hair is horribly uneven. one side is about 2 inches.from apl and the other is about 4 inches from apl. I'm thoroughly disgusted. I'll do one last length check in Dec. then back in braids for the year.

1) Yes or No? Yes
2) What was your length in Jan 2011? BSB, I think
3) What is your goal length for this year? BSL
4) What is your current length? BSL with a overall goal of full MBL
 
1. IDK

2. Jan. 2011 I was one month post BC. I BC'd after a 3.5 - 4 mos. stretch (my memory fails me.)

3. My goal was shoulder length

4. When I stretch my hair it's at the bottom of neck length.
 
1) Yes or No
Well before my setback (braider cut off 4 inches of my hair), my goal was to BSL before the end of 2011 and I was on target to make it. I'm about to accept that I won't make that, and my new goal is to be where I was before my setback which was BSB in back and full APL in front, 2.5 inches away from BSL.

2) What was your lenghth in Jan 2011?
I'm guessing I was APL but see #1

3) What is your goal length for this year?
See #1

4) What is your current length?
I only notice new growth on wash days but right now I'm about 1/1.5 inches away from full APL.
 
I didn't really start my HHJ until...I dunno, I guess I implemented it in different phases so to speak, LOL. I suffered major damage after cornrows with synthetic hair early this year and I vowed to take better care of my hair, but I was going about doing a HHJ while relaxed. A long stretch turned into me transitioning so at this time I don't have any length goals, I am just trying to maintain my 4 months of new growth while slowly snipping away at my relaxed ends.
 
1) Yes or No Yes!!!
2) What was your length in Jan 2011? APL (last relaxer beginning of transition)
3) What is your goal length for this year? TWA
4) What is your current length? IDK between APL and SL - I can reach my goal at any moment. ***Snip snip*** :lol:
 
1) Yes or No
2) What was your lenghth in Jan 2011? (a little past APL)
3) What is (WAS) your goal length for this year? (MBL)
4) What is your current length? (BSB/BSL).

I voted "not sure"

Honestly I can't tell if I'm BSL because my bra's land on different spots on my back....I plan to do a length check (in Nov) with my 2nd press of the year but I hope I will be MBL by Spring. Honestly my butt is kinda high (TMI-I know) so I may get toWL soon after I approach MBL...Hopefully by the end of next year.
 
1) Mmmmm... It's a possibility?!????
2) I'm not completely sure what my length was at the beginning of the year. I had fallen off the wagon big time. I probably haven't been caring for my hair as I used to since summer 2010... :look:... I know!!! I was probably between BSL and MBL at the beginning of thus year.
3) I've only just started to get serious about haircare again so it's probably a bit late to set a goal for the end of the year. However, full waistlength would be awesome!
4) I'm currently grazing waistlength stretched.
 
dont really have a hair goal...now i just like to maintain a nice healthy head of MBL hair...

had a set back this summer..slight detangle nightmare after weeks of my hair being braided up and enjoying the beach and water and vacay...cut a couple inches...then did a minor clipping the other day...so im feeling good about my hair overall...fo rme less protein more moisture works for my tresses....new ppl are alway surpised at how thick and long my hair is when its out--old ppl know what it is...with all the stuff i do to my hair im just happy to have it on my head at this point...lolol

eta-i hardly ever take hair pics but at my amiga beauticians house we did after she flatironed me to trim my ends 10/10 pic..so about a yr ago... i will take another pic next month to do a comparison..

1) Sadly, no.
I had a big cut and a not-so-little trim this year. the first cut was to get rid of my most of my layers and raggedy ends, and the second was to get it completely blunt across.
2) I started 2011 with hair that was about an inch and a half from apl, but my ends were a mess
3) My goal length for this year was full apl/grazing bsl.
4) my current length is full shoulder length. i'm not disappointed though, my ends are the healthiest they've been since i started having my hair relaxed.
going to keep on stretching my relaxers and pushing for my length goals next year. :grin:
 
1) Yes or No maybe
2) What was your length in Jan 2011? SL
3) What is your goal length for this year? FULL APL
4) What is your current length? barely grazing APL
