Starting pic until I blur out my other ones.

Current length: stretched out to an inch past my collar bone.
Regimen: currently co-wash (hopefully once a week). Wearing a wash & go. Tie with a silk scarf or bonnet nightly.
What I plan to do to achieve my goal: co-washing, trying to learn what my hair "likes", retaining moisture, drinking more water, and low manipulation styling.
 
AbysBlvd, Prettymetty, whosthatgurl I've got you added. Everyone else I will update you when you finish the 1st post/get picture added.

 
Idk if it's too late but I'm just now seeing this challenge and I'd like to join for this session.

1. I think I attached a pic. If not I'll edit and add

2. My current length is between chin, collarbone, and shoulder depending on the part. Hoping for APL by the end of the year.

3. I just added cassia to my regimen so I'll be doing that biweekly. I DC weekly and usually wear twistouts/ buns/wash and go's. I have had my hair in sew-ins for most of this year so I'm wearing it out for at least a couple months.

4. Actually paying attention to my hair outside of trimming it. It's not in bad shape but I have not conciously tried to retain length and I am now. Nothing too special.

OH I did forget I started taking Viviscal last week lol. I clearly am not that concerned b/c I forgot. It's cheap on Amazon Prime though so I ordered it! I've never taken a hair vitamin so we'll see if that helps.

Your picture didn't attach. You may have to resize your picture if it is too large.
 
Yes, I definitely think that's possible. Do you have a solid regi that you are sticking to?
yeah i wash once or twice a month because when i used to wash a lot i would lose a lot of hair detangling.. i just grease and keep my hair braided for a long time

ermmmm... @shortdub78
are you sure you want to grow your hair?
you look good with that cut.
Thank you! I wanna grow out the top, and keep the sides tapered for awhile. So about 5-7 at the top so I can do more styles, like two strand twist outs, Bantu knot outs, etc... I wanna add some color too! I plan on having fun this time around with being natural!
 
I finally have a starting pic. I'm a bad host.
