APL 2012 Challenge

Seamonster · Oct 30, 2012

Drat, I just did an amazing bun for short hair, when I was putting my onion mask on to go to bed. I didn't take any pictures because there might be a few pieces of onion in my hair, but I am going to try and describe it.

I did a loose corn row down the middle of my head to the crown, and tucked the end under, then did a loose cornrow in the back and tucked the end under.

Tomorrow is the beginning of the BSL challenge. I am hoping to really get in there for next year. Trimming my hair often means less retention, but my freshly trimmed hair is so easy to manage. I love that tangle free, easy to style freshly trimmed hair.

I am placing a nice thick Full BSL on my 2013 Christmas list as I have been a really good girl.

KiWiStyle · Oct 30, 2012

With every passing stretch, I'm getting more and more excited with how much better my protective styles are looking.

I can't wait to see what my BSL bun will look like!!!

NikkiQ · Oct 30, 2012

^^^Cute bun!!

Firstborn2 · Oct 30, 2012

I went ahead and trimmed my ends today, I cut 1 1/2inches off. I must say, even though I felt a lil sad to be cutting so much off, I'm glad I did. My hair feels marvelous so I'm happy :yep:

Seamonster · Oct 30, 2012

^^^ that bun is great

Can I claim it? Yes? No? Maybe? I think I'm grazing really close

Phaer · Oct 30, 2012

I haven't posted pics since March because with shedding I could not see a difference, oh well. I am posting some today, I hope I can claim apl in December... even if I can't I hope you guys know I will still be on the bsl challenge with you. I will be like that family member that refuses to leave during the holidays.

I hope the tea rinses helps with the shedding.

NikkiQ · Oct 30, 2012

Phaer you will definitely be able to claim APL by December 31st. You look close now!

I love you just for saying that. if that's all I have at the end of the year, then I am claiming it (I don't care), but I hope to have it be a bit more full at the end.

What do you do with onion?

Ladies my Heart :heart2:and Prayers :pray:

go out to everyone and their families impacted by Hurricane Sandy across the Northeast.

I have family in 4 of the States declared Disaster Areas by the President. I am extremely grateful that like myself, not one single family member lost power in their homes or retained flooding. State offices have been closed for the past two days where I live yet re-open tomorrow for business.
:office:

I think it's going to be difficult to return to work on Halloween's Day for many children and their families. Yet fitting it is to have the New York Stock Exchange ring the official Market Bell tomorrow morning.

Hard to 'start over' or 'get going again' yet some sense of "what is normal" must start somewhere.

I hope that you and your loved ones are all safe wherever you are!

Ah-ha! I knew all you big breasted beasts were fakes...I WANT TO BUY SOME TOO, tear-tear :-(.

Phaer · Oct 31, 2012

can we get a support group for the black girls with no booty committee?

NikkiQ · Oct 31, 2012

Is anyone currently wet bunning and seeing great results? I think I'm gonna try it out for the rest of the year.

NikkiQ · Oct 31, 2012

Ever since that trim the other day, the ends of my Celies aren't as fuzzy wuzzy as usual. Very happy about that!

bajandoc86 · Oct 31, 2012

NikkiQ
I trimmed after my length check in Sept too...ends felt MUCH better. I think that trim put me JUST above APL, but I'm cool with that. I'm confident I will be back by Dec this yr.

I am thinking on doing once last length check in Dec, then none again till July next yr.

Oh...I'm planning on making my own length check t-shirt since i can now grip my hair from behind :grin:
