Checking in! I've been keeping my hair twisted during the week and I wear twist-outs on the weekend. I'm retaining pretty well. I was able to gain back the inch I cut off at the end of December with an additional 1/2 inch. Currently I'm at 12.5-13 inches all over, creeping up on BSL! Current hair styles:

You and your hair are so pretty. I would give so much for even length all over.
 
I think I'm going to wear my hair in a wrap tomorrow. I ordered a wrap from the wrap life. So pretty. I'll fiddle around with it a bit to find a style I like that won't scare the kids
 
Wash day is in progress. Here are a few pics. First pic is products used. Second pic texture shot, third pic color shot and the last pic is my new conditioning cap. After my dc I will airdry with a t shirt and rebraid my hair.

My hair seemed really strong after the Emergencee treatment. I probably could've skipped the mousturizing dc. Now my hair is braided back and I will continue wigging it until the End of next month.

I like emergencee too, although I've switched to apogee 2 step. But if I didn't use a moisturizing dc after either one of those before I started in with my wide tooth, I would not have a strand of hair left on my head.
 
I need to reup on my Mocha Silk. Only one application left. I originally planned to use it weekly but I got off track. I think I'll order some more today and see how my hair does using it two weeks in a row. I love feeling my curlies after a treatment
 
Ran out of conditioner so did a modified version of MHM- just clay and gel (layered with a little wheatgerm oil). The end result was soft hair that has more lustre than usual.

I haven't done a two step treatment in probably two years and I used to do them like clockwork. I'm thinking I haven't needed one since I use APGBP almost weekly.

I feel bald headed. I think it will take a year for me to not feel that way. Think I'm going to bun my hair. I wanted to be cute today...

are you growing a cut out? Your hair is longer than mine, but we have the same shape. I'm growing out a haircut I got last year.

Thank you:). The way my regimen has me...yes:lol: At the moment, I baggy most of the time while wearing a wig. But anytime I am not at work, I wear my hair out in some type of wash and go.
With that in mind, I have next week off so my hair will be out and free....playtime yay!
 
My new half wig looks just like my blown out hair. I got it half price from the bss. It is human hair with highlights. I'm wearing a headband, because I didn't want to leave any of my hair out.

Now I'm starting to realize how damaging this weather can be. I was driving in my car with the heat on full blast for about 45 minutes. Then I went to take my bun down and the hair inside of the bun was cold as ice. It was so cold I thought my hair was wet somehow. I need to stop underestimating this weather!
 
I'm currently prepooing with KeraVada brahmi oil and BASK apple and sorghum hair syrup. Will cowash wirh tresemme flawless curls con and use cantu leave in and shea moisture strengthen leave in and flattwist it back up. I did a light dust last night.
 
I relaxed my hair today using Mizani and I'm happy with the truth at last. I have been struggling with postpartum shedding which took my edges and gave me tangles and knots. I have to cut about 2-3 inches off of my hair because of my see-through ends. The saddest thing is that the longest parts of my hair are at APL but I want healthy hair over length. So back at SL.
