APRIL

Current length: Just past Armpit

Desired length: BSL first, then waist

BSL Time: Late August

WaistLength Time: I'm guessing a year after I hit BSL so August '08 unless my hair magically grows more than 1/2 inch a month.

Yeey I'm almost at BSL! Just 4 more months to go ;) I should take more vitamins and my amino acid pills to step it up, I need them anyway I'm just being lazy :P

New Challenge (nothing like a new one ;))

NO HEAT! We'll see how long this lasts... but after I get my hair done at sophiasunflower I'm not gonna want heat for a loooong time, just because when I didn't use heat my ends stayed pretty much perfect and I didn't have any knots for the longest time. I'm going to go with no heat for a year (I'll do stretched length pictures, and twists on dry hair for comparisions). I think 3 months is too short a span of time for me to take it seriously so...we'll see how 12 months works :)




Wow... school is almost out, ugh which means AP exams are near...

Anyway!

Sooo, health regimen:

xDeep Conditioning Treatment - twice a week.
xHot oil treatment at least once a month
xCo-wash daily ( at least 3 times a week )
xMoisturize in sections and braid up--seal with ANH oil
xBaggy method at night (olive oil, conditioner, natural hair oil, whatever else I can find...)
xProtective styles
-pinned up braids
-pinned up twists
-2 ponytails --tucked under
-2 buns


Daily:

Co-wash hair with Curl Quenching Conditioner in 3 sections. Apply conditioner, let sit for 2-3 minutes, comb through gently with shower comb and then through running water.

Smooth in moisturizer, comb in if needed (not for curl definition!) Apply all natural hair oil and put hair in two braids.

Nightly:

Take hair out of two braids, apply moisturizers, oils, and conditioner to hair and seal with baggy (baggy method).
-I'm doing this mainly to avoid: knots, breakage, and split ends. Annd I'm not good with trimming, so I need an alternative which ideally would be no trimming at all.


Every 2 weeks or so: DT
Every month: HOT

Let's see if I can follow this:
