Yes I do my own braid pattern lol! My scalp is tender so I can't deal with other people being rough on my head.

@Bajan whoo! Thanks for that, it's nice to see everything all organized and together apart from searching through threads, and it'll be easier to keep up with everyone. Thank you! (and I filled in my missing bit too )

And Muay nice to see you jumping onboard! Your hair is gorgeous as always!


AND I HAVE AN UPDATE. I couldn't resist doing an end of the year official length check so I did and I'm surprisingly shocked at what I see.



Perhaps it's the angle of the camera but I seriously can't believe my hair looks this long! WOW. It's obvious I haven't been wearing my hair out too much these days and definitely haven't been stretching it to infinity like I used to, so I'm literally shocked to see that my hair has grown this much. When I began ps-ing constantly in January, I measured my length and this piece was 9.5 inches. Now it's 16! So all in all about 6.5 inches (really 7 if I hadn't trimmed in October). EEEEEK!!! Sorry ya'll I'm just so giddy and excited! In another inch I'll be MBL so I'll probably be making MBL alot sooner than I thought. But I'll still give Nelly enough time to get there and wait til April to offically claim anything. That means I "could" be waist length before 2013 is out.

But on a different note, I did shampoo my hair on Friday (I couldn't go three weeks like I wanted to) and retwisted the front half just last night. Took no time at all honestly so i think I can make this install last for two to three months like I hoped. We shall see.



LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your hair !!!

Hi Ladies,
 
Happy New Year to All.
 
Heavy: I would like to know whether I would still be able to join this challenge if not..I will just follow on the sidelines... I have been rocking protective styles and would love to be a part ofthis journey to get to my hair goals. 
 
Hair Goal for June, 2013: APL
Current Length and State of Hair (e.g., relaxed, natural, texlaxed): currently I am CBL in the back and grazing just below the nose in the front.  My hair is natural 4b-c texture with fine strands
PS of Choice: will alternae between wigs, extension twists and buns
Detailed Regimen while in PS: currently rocking wigs with my own hair cornrowed underneath,  I spray with Talijah waajid protective mist bodifier and oil with a mixture of grow aut oil and sulfur mix. Co wash with Suave coconut conditioner, apply kimmaytube leave in and seal with either castor/coconut oil
Biggest Hair Issue at the Moment: reataining length..my hair grows and then it will just start to break so I am trying to protect my ends
Favorite Product: Elucence conditioner, argan oil cholesterol conditioner and castor oil at the moment.
