man, I am feeling very pressured to straighten my hair for tomorrow. :( its like my family doesn't understand. It sucks. I am attempting to do a 6 month no-heat stretch. Putting heat on my hair is addictive, and I don't want to start an abusive cycle with my hair :[

You can totally do it, Heavy!! Welcome! :)
Update: I'm still semi-straightened. As fun as it is to enjoy my length, I don't like not being able to water my hair daily. I'm hoping to be consistent with my wigs and individual braids (no extensions) next year. I would like to make WL in 4.5 years and that would be December 2013.

Yes, I totally believe you will make WSL next year Heavy, your reggie sounds really good, esp steaming with the coconut oil blend... I need a steamer in my life!

About an inch+ above APL, mind you. BSL to WSL is definitely doable.
