Thank you E! I used Clairol Textures & Tones Bronze. I've had no problems because I've been deep conditioning and doing protein treatments regularly. I have to warn you...it's addictive.
I don't color my eyebrows. My color's really subtle, so nothing clashes. I'll probably go lighter again, so we'll see...

I'm sorry - I'm not quite 2 whole years but I did do several mini chops before the final one in May, 07.
Bye-bye bangs in March 07 - wet hair. If stretched it would come to around my nose.
and this is from a blow-out in March, 09
It can sorta give a general idea, hopefully.

Wow, that's 2 years worth of growth, your hair is beautiful ... thick, gorgeous. What are you doing to it?

Nothing but the basics these days Soliel. Wash/condition/deep condition, easy on the heat and gentle handling.
I don't know what I would give to have all of that hair.Simply gorgeous!
LOL, you'd probably love it for a day or 2 then mail me back a bag of hair in a brown box at the end of the week
but thanks Ediese - So is yours! Thank-you BBD but there's no secrets here.
Just keeping things as simple as possible and to retain whatever can grow.
After a few scary post-bc experiments/pj binge months I've got my routine down, cruise with it and only make small adjustments as needed. No cuts just seek and destroy any single strand knots or splits when I see them.
I did do a 1/4-1/2 inch trim in Jan or Feb though but try to take really good care of the ends so it won't be necessary. My hair has natural layers and grows relatively evenly so I know that helps lessen the need for scissors too.
It's always managed to grow to at least bsl even when I was relaxing and treating it like dirt but it seems that going natural has really made it thrive (maybe because I actually care now
). It's never been this long before.

It seems from the pics that APL is the average length at the 2 year mark.
If only I could keep the scissors out my hair. That damn dye did me in. Never again.

Yes Whimsy, I have some now. Here are the latest.
I still haven't pressed it yet and I still haven't unleashed the entire fro all at the same time.
Here goes. 2 years natural
1- I took down the top half of the twists and added conditioner. This almost looks wearable. the lower half is still twisted.
NOTE:
This is Not my real texture
My natural texture doesn't do this.
This is the result of a twistout that I added conditioner to.
2- This is just the top half of my hair. the bottom half is still twisted and in a ponytail.
This is what my real texture is like.
3- Light Blow out to about 90% dry after deep conditioning.
4. another twistout - dry
5. Wet and trying to contain it before it shrinks & dries
6. Shrinkage sample- **Shakes fist**
