Sorry Ladies I cut my hair during my HYH challenge. I also braided it today. I have a pic that I took today of my new growth not much for a year but I am going to be growing this hair for the next 2 years before cutting

[NikkiQ]

Here's my lackluster reveal

[JJamiah]

@NikkiQ your results are amazing, especially since you cut a lot so take that into consideration

Beautiful Hair and results

I'm super excited to see all the hair candy to give more inspiration.

I'll share my progress since I BC about 3 months ago. I'm currently 9 months post relaxer::

@ojemba, I am so keeping these pics for hair style options Joking

I'm still stuck in apl purgatory. I had some of my layers cut out in a rather unfortunate haircut that I'm growing out now. My hair is in braids so I don't have length pics with loose hair.

I do have pics of my braids from late last year until now...7 months.

These mini braids are from Nov. 27, 2012 (cowashed, damp I think)



Today- Jun. 30, 2012 (dry and I had perm rods in so they're sticking up)



ETA: tried to take a better pic on damp hair.

Pic 2: 06/30/12
From the pictures, you can't really tell but I think I am between the 7 and 8. I'll just say I am at 7.5 because my shirt is all wonky on me compared to my January pic.



see what i mean?

amen to this!

Ok, so here is the worst reveal in the bunch. My hair is a little shorter than when I started. Must of had some issues I was not aware of. In spite of the lackluster growth, I think my hair is healthier than when I started the journey, so I am going to carry on. I really want an line bob with a bang, I want it to be APL in the back, and BSL in the front.

ETA: I think I just noticed that my one piece of hair is as thick as the whole back was before, it might just be wishful thinking, but I hope it is true.

Initially I wore 2 strand twists for a week, and then would do a twist out on the weekend. For the last 2months...I have been doing flat twist updos and keeping them for 2 weeks at a time. This helps to cut down on the amount of manipulation, and keeps my ends hidden. HTH!

[shortdub78]

i had to do a major trim so i would have had more growth, but oh well!
