Hello ladies! This challenge is for anyone who experienced a setback in 2011, whether it's breakage, thinning edges, thin ends, SHS trims, etc. The point of this challenge is to use the setback as a way to assess your future growth and progress. And by December 2012, you will have a detailed tracking of your progress and encouragement in you healthy hair journey!
Rules:
1) Tell us about your setback, big or small.
2) How do you plan to recover? (ie, new regimen, PSing, no heat, baby ends, etc)
3) What is your comeback goal? (does not have to be a length goal...can be thickness, edges, etc)
4) Post a picture of your setback or simply post a starting picture.
5) Every 3months, take a picture to document your progress. For those who are hiding their hair, you don't have to post the picture, but check-in with us on how things are going.
6) For those coming back from a length setback (or for anyone also interested), keep track of how many inches you've obtained either on a monthly or quarterly basis. On December 2012, tally your total inches, tell us what you've learned about your hair, and celebrate your growth!!!
7) No trims for 2012 (you may search and destroy split ends only)
8) Encourage each other and give helpful tips!
Let's do this ladies! (Thank this post to join!)
1) Went in for a relaxer touchup in December and walked out with a 2in "trim". I just wanted the ends evened out because my right side grows longer than the left, but my ends were perfectly healthy. A trim turned into a cut. I was 2in from my waist before the trim, now i'm 4in away.
2) I plan to recover by 100% PSing, mostly buns, 6month relaxer stretch, not deviating from my staple products: Joico shampoo and conditioner, AO GPB protein conditioner 1x/month, Argan Oil and NTM silk touch leave-in
3) Comeback goal is total length retention while keeping my ends healthy so I can go one year without a trim. Also, to become a complete self-trimmer.
4) Picture: I couldn't get the picture sizes exactly even, but the line indicates where my waist is. Picture on the left is 2weeks before my touchup and trim. Right picture is after the trim.
