8 inches of growth so far this year!

WTH??? (yes I'm hatin') congrats and that sulfur mix, I'm gonna try now. this makes no freakin sense :nono:
 
That's hard to say since I've only been doing this since January and never really took care of my hair prior to that. So, I'm doing several things but, in my mind, my focus is on keeping my scalp happy, protecting my ends and visualizing and expecting growth. I've been claiming wl since I started and it looks like I'm going to have what I say. I'm using a sulfur mix. Didn't use it much over the summer tho. I'm taking supplements. Quit many because of breakouts or just not feeling like paying to keep reupping (and stopping would take time getting back on track). Exercising? :nono: I'ma just have to keep it real and say I'm still planning to start one day. :look:

But, with cowashing, letting my scalp breathe during the day and massaging my sulfur oil at night, I felt like I was taking good care of my scalp. And I ps like a beast. Only wore my hair out 2x this year and not long then.

And maybe being naive and trying not to let people dictate what my hair is supposed to do. I think I saw a thread early on that someone went something like sl to wl in a year (babygurl?) and I thought, it's possible so that's what I'm going to claim for myself. And I kept the ideas that my hair grows fast and that it's constantly growing in front of me. I print out pics of my length shots in black and white and use a marker to extend the length to the next goal length. Then I use that image to see that growth before it happens and try not to send conflicting messages by constantly checking my actual length. And, I thank God for it. I also keep my actual progress pics in my siggy so that I can see that my hair is growing, for those times when it starts feeling sl again.

*shrugs* Don't really know what else to attribute it to. My hair and I have an understanding. I'll take care of you and you do what I say. So far, it's working...along with everything else that I'm doing. My reggie is in my lhcf blog. I don't think I'm doing anything revolutionary. If you find something that may be causing above average growth, do tell. I'm not trying to figure it out. Just trying to do what I believe makes sense.

I hope that didn't sound like rambling but, *shrugs* that's my response. :look: HTH :yep:

The power of positive thinking.. The law of attraction :yep:
 
Amazing!!!

Would you say that your ends aren't prone to splitting? I think that's my main issue with growing past bsl.

No. I wouldn't say that. I'd say I try not to give my ends an opportunity to split. I keep them moisturized, sealed and locked down like Fort Knox. So far, so good. :yep:

I love that you attribute some of your success with a positive mindset. Love it!

Btw, if you ever feel like selling a bottle of your sulfur mix....let me know. I'm so serious. I'm afraid to mix that stuff up myself!
 
I got off the growth aid band wagon and had a good first year of my HHJ. There is no need to assist the growth of my hair and get caught up in these fads. Just care for ur hair ladies and u will retain length.

:lachen::lachen::lachen: Girl, you are too funny!!!! :lol::lol::lol:
 
I really think it applies to everything. I visualized my way into a new Lexus and never saw it coming. How 'bout that.

Boy does it ever work! And I am stunned at how quickly it works at times. Congratulations on your progress! I did a double take when I saw your siggy in another thread. Had me perplexed for a good few seconds:lachen:
 
I just read your post about visualizations. I love how you used positive thinking to achieve your hair goals. Very inspirational.
 
Well, damn. I mean, between the growth rate, the retention, and the thickness, I'm just...speechless.
