Currently loving a good old baggy after applying hemp oil to my hair. I also love it as a prepoo. It really softens my hair.





But that smell. No no no. Gotta cowash it out the next day. Can't do it with the hemp oil smell. Barf

Has anyone been doing this for 2-3 months who has progress pics they'd like to share?

I flat ironed my hair yesterday but I don't see/feel any progress since I started baggying Sept 25. Yeah, I know, you're going to ask for pics. Problem is, I don't have any starting pics.

So...anyone got anything?

Looking good, Aggs! :grin:

Platinum *facepalm* I keep forgetting!!! :lol: I'm too tired to create one right now, but I'll make a memo to myself to start a new one tomorrow! (Dec 26th)

Cendra Do you mean growth progress or overall health of hair?

Either way, I don't have much to contribute. :giggle: I haven't straightened my hair for years, so I can't tell that way. :perplexed

But I DO know that my hair stays moisturized longer, is softer and sheen-ier (cuz my little fro doesn't shine) :lol:

I was too exhausted to do anything to my hair last night and ended up just throwing a couple of shower caps on my head before hitting the hay.

Tonight, I steamed with Qhemet CTDG and TLC Naturals Shea Boabob Oil. Immediately after steaming, I put on my shower caps to trap the heat. I'll be GHE'ing tonight. :yep:

I'm guessing we're still posting in here until the 1st? GHeing tonight with Hairitage Hydration's Happy Hempy on my scalp, SSI's Tahitian Vanilla Leave In on my length, followed by Silk Dream's Almond Buttercream on the length, then sealed with Enso's Moss & Marshmallow Serum. Put my hair in 6 twists.

tiffers,

Yes, both, but I'm mostly interested in overall growth for this challenge. And I did have "starting" pics. According to my notes, I started Sept 25 but I took this stretched hair pic on Oct 12 and flat ironed on Dec 24. Although my ironing skills don't produce bone straight results - which I didn't want anyway - I'm sure a stylist would've stretched my hair even more. But still, I don't see any change. In general, my hair is better moisturized, though.
