Who's set to make BSL 08?

I won't be poppin' my brastrap this year. My goal for this year is to make full, healthy APL length; then I can focus on BSL and beyond. I plan to use the rules for the LHCF bootcamp to get there (no heat, protective styling, DC with every wash, no trimming just dustings, baggying). Who else is set to make BSL in 08? I don't think there is a 'pop ya brastrap 08' thread yet so I thought I'd get an early start! (2008 is less than 8 months away-it'll be here before we know it)


BSL in 08!

Thanks Special K for putting the list in order!

I'm hoping by December of 08.

I`m hoping by Jan-Feb of 08 i should be BSL

me!...I will be full shoulder length by August 07....so by December 08 I wont be full brastrap, but close enough it claim it!

[SIZE=+1] Me, me, me.

I plan on being there by this time next year. I just cut the last of my damaged colored hair off a couple of days ago. So now I'm starting fresh.

I have a cutting/trimming addiction......but to achieve bsl....I'm going to have to stop.

I can't wear a bun now.......but when I can....I will start bunning. No heat and bunning is what had me at 14inches(1inch past bsl) before Textures & Tones took it all away. [/SIZE]

ME! I just made APL and I'm aiming for brastrap by April 08. I'm hoping for sooner, but I think this is realistic for full BSL.

me! me!

I am set for the end of 08 - hopefully sooner. I am in braids now and plan to take them out in the fall maybe, and will then bun until I reach my goal. God willing and the creek don't rise.....

Same for me. Let's go. !!!!

me too. i want it for my graduation present... I think i need 6 inches....

I'm in! I am hoping for BSL by July 08, but really hoping to make it by May 08. I use no heat and I don't deal with scissors. I'm just trying to find the right moisture balance for my hair.

ME ME ME...Hopefully by this time in ' 08 My vits are keeping me in check.

Me three! Me three!

I'm thinking April/May 2008 or Aug/Sept 2008 with a trim.

August 2008!!!!!!!!

ME ME ME ME ME ME! I got a trim my last one, my hair is starting to thicken back up(from the micro braids thinnin it out). So I'm ready to grow I probably have 4 inches. I want to be there by Jan 08!!

I'm in! By this time next year, I hope to be BSL or longer!

Me! i'm shooting for APL by august, full apl by christmas, and bsl by february would be nice, but march is probably more realistic....i want to be full bsl for my may 08 graduation!!!

let's get it, ladies!

Count me in. I would like to see my hair BSL by this time next year. I will have APL by the end of October. So I feel confident that I will have BSL by May-June 2008. I'm set!!!!! Let's get it!!!

Those are my goals as well! APL by Oct, then BSL by this time next year!
Let's keep each other motivated ladies!
I'll post my updates to this thread every few months.
BSL: Class of 08! Let's get it ladies!

I made myself a little map today... I originally said Apr/May 2008 and I was dead on! I'm about 5.5 inches from BSL (that's 11 months ETA April 2008).

It was super simple. I used MS paint to add the lines and numbers. The hard part was making sure the tape measurer was straight. You have to sit on it a little. :wink2:

ETA: I knew my torso was short, but I didn't realized that I don't have a 'mid-back' (my original goal).

That is the goal. I wonder if its realisitic? I need to make a map like Sareca's. I am about 3 or 4 inches from full APL, and hopefully I will hit that by Sep/Oct of 07.

I should be BSL by January of '08, but I think it may take the front of my hair longer to catch up, so all of my hair should be BSL by the end of '08. I'd be happy with that. That doesn't seem like it's a long time from now. Plus, I've never had BSL hair.

I'll give myself until the end of '08, which is more than enough time, because I don't want to have BSL thin hair.

Good idea Sareca!!! I am going to do a progress pic like that when I get my touch up. I haven't set my goal yet for BSL (I'm just trying to get to APL first ) but I know that it will be some time in 2008. The picture will truly help me out with setting my goal down to the month.

Just stay on top of those regimens ladies and we can all have swangin' BSL hair next year sometime! I'm so excited!
I'm going to stick with the LHCF bootcamp challenge to get there ( no heat, stretching relaxers 20 weeks, dc with every wash, baggying, moisturizing daily, protective styles, no trimming- just dusting). Good luck ladies!

ETA: I look forward to typing 'achieved' next to each name

How come I got crunk when I read Let's get it lets get it

My hair is going into braids after this last final. Hopefully that will help me get to my goal and help me get over my watching obsession
