Cheering everyone on! If I don't reach hip length by Dec 31st I may have to join you ladies for a few months. I was about a 1/2 inch away back in Oct.

This thread made me flatiron to do a length ck and I have to say that I didn't meet my goal for this yr and I know that I wont because I had to trim .5 to 1" because they were hard and the comb or brush was getting tangled in it so I know it had to go. I rather have healthy ends than ends that are just going to make the rest of my hair fall out. I am so glad I caught this now, so I thank you for starting this.

Current Length: hl

Regimen: er i should be more consistent but it is cowash weekly(suave almond shea ) clarify monthly (suave clarifying shampoo), protein treatment every 4 weeks. Moisturize with aloe vera juice + suave almond conditioner/avocado oil(sometimes), seal with sunflower oil and then some type of grease. Oh and lots of bunning.

Plans: wigs for the winter, maybe until the end of april actually. Bunning. I'll be cutting off my relaxed ends somewhere in between this december and april.

Hip Length Date: ??? Maybe August

Can you please add me Janet? I don't think I will make it this year (2011) but I might be close. I will definitely be going for Hiplength in the new year. I have decided that I won't go past hip though. I am STILL transitioning.

Current Length: Past Waist

Regimen: I gave up on reggies.

Plans: I think I am going to try rollersetting my hair this year. My hair shrinks up and tangles really badly so I have to be careful as I am transitioning and still going for length.

Hip Length Date: May 2012

Current starting point is above (as of October 18th) I would say an inch or so above bra strap? It's growing well, I was APL after my cut in July.
I'll take another pic on New Years Eve and update my starting point.

Regimen:
My current regimen for the winter is:

  • weekly wash and deep condition
  • either airdry then flatiron or put in twists for the week
  • moisturize or oil ends every other night

Plan:
DO NOT CUT MY HAIR NO MATTER WHAT INSANITY COMPELS ME!

Hip Length Date:
Not 2012 I'll tell ya that much!:lol: I'd say December 2013 to be realistic!

GOOD LUCK LADIES!!!

It does seem like forever. I will make two years transitioning at the end of this year (December 31st to be exact). I will go for three years I think. I just don't want to cut my hair. I have contemplated it and I would be at BSL natural, but I am like NOPE! :lol: I would prefer to at least be MBL natural before I cut.

NikkiGirl I definitely understand, I was a longterm transitioner myself--it took me 2 years and some change and I was only CBL (collarbone length). Take as much time as you need! How often are you trimming?

LMAO yup! Then all fall out with the post partum shedding :(:nono:

Whimsy Dang!!! You ain't neva lied:lol::look::lol::look:
