Hi Ladies,
Who's with me to have a healthy nape and flowing edges by December 2010?!?
The GOAL of this challenge will be to
1) grow your nape and/or edges to the same length as the rest of your hair and to
2) thicken the hair in the nape and edge areas.
Challenge Rules
1. Nourish:
- Apply your choice of products (Castor Oil, Conditioner, BeeMine, Mega-tek/OCT) to your problem area nightly.
2. Stimulate:
- Massage your scalp on the nape/edge area for 5, 10, or 15min. per night. Optional: Apply essential oils (peppermint, lavender, rosemary, thyme, cedar, etc.).
3. Protect:
A. Wear a silk/satin scarf, tie the knot away from the problem area and rotate nightly, or switch to a bonnet, if you wear a scarf at night.
B. Wear your hair up, cover cloths and winter scarves and hats with silk/satin scarves when you wear turtle necks, wool tops, and winter gear.
C. Cornrow your nape when you wear your hair down, your edges at night, and both when you wear a protective style such as weaves or wigs.
4. Style Wisely:
A. Limit direct heat and chemicals to your nape and/or edges (stretch relaxers, no “catching edges” with blow dryers and flat irons). Use hooded dryers or air dry, and make the most of your moisturizing and smoothing products.
B. Alternate the side you wrap your hair to daily; instead of wrapping, use pin curls.
C. Alternate the side you wear your part on daily or weekly.
Terms
- This challenge runs through December 31, 2010.
- You must check in daily or weekly to hold yourself accountable and discuss challenges and progress.
- You must post starting and ending pics.
Commitment Statement: (cut and paste)
“I will apply __(product)___ to my __(problem area)____ and massage my scalp for ____(# of minutes)____ nightly. I will ____(protect)_____ my nape/edges and will _______(style wisely)_______.”
