Waist Length 2013

[hareluvah]

I want to join to!!!! I am part of a scissor happy challenge for this year because I am forever chopping my hair off. Hopefully that challenge coupled this one will help me FINALLY pass APL WITHOUT jenky looking ends. After 15 years of being natural, it's about dern time.

WAIST LENGTH 2013
(or sooner) HERE I COME!

 

[ImanAdero]

My hair is currently in Senegalese twists. I'll probably take them out soon (next week or two). Not sure how much it's grown, but I got bottom layers and color around March, so we'll see how much froth I've gotten since then.

 

[wish4length]

count me in....i don't think i'll be waist length in 2012 anyway...

 

[EllePixie]

I'm coming along, slowly but surely. I'm about 2-3 inches away from BSL so I hope to be there by the end of the year.

Hello lovely ladies.
Made it to a year post-relaxer last month and did a much needed 1/2 to 1 inch trim a few days ago. I was able to retain 5 1/2 inches so I'm very happy with my hair at the moment. I don't know if I want to grow to WL but I decided that I will continue to actively grow my hair out until BSL and then decide from there. That means continuing to hide my hair so it's time to buy a new wig. Hopefully I will be grazing APL by December.

I forgot me and you are on the same timeline!! *high five* I'm 1yr post relaxer too! Congrats lady!!

I know I'm being silly and will probably get over it in a few days but reaching APL seems so unattainable. I looked at where my hair is now and the distance to APL and it seems to be football fields away! It's probably because my hair has never been this long in my adult life but it seems like it will take forever and a day to get there! So.... looks like it's going to be another hardcore year of protective styling via wig wearing for me. APL 2012!

 

[Evallusion]

I'm still here...I'm in box braids so nothing new to report...just trying to keep from taking them out.

This is the start of week 5 for me...but I'm trying to make it to the weekend of July 4th so that I can unleash the fro for Independence Day.

For now, I'm just taking it one day at a time...but I can't wait to touch my fro again. **That sounded pervy**

 

[lilyofthenile]

I'm a little late but can I join the challenge pretty please?

 

[CurlyLawGal]

Is it too late for me to join? Eventhough I'm starting late, I would love to push my "hair potential". Just as a background, I BC'd in July of 2006. I grew my hair to BSL and then chopped it off to neck length in September of 2009. Now, I am shoulder length with a bit of heat damage that I NEED to grow out.

Oh, and I love scissors. I used to get a cut/layers every 3-4 months. This will be a true challenge to me!

 

[Meritamen]

Yep, this challenge is still open for people to join.

 

[keysha4515]

I would like to join! I am currently half a inch past APL. i has been 3 months since my "little" BC

 

[healthyhair2]

I am IN!!!! My back layers are about collarbone length. When I get tired of my twists, I will either get a sew-in or box braids. My last relaxer was October 2009 and I chopped the rest of my relaxed ends in January this year

 

[skraprchik]

I'd love to join this challenge. My BC was July 16, 2010. I'm currently at 4.5-5 inches all around after two trims.

 

[Burbujas]

I'm in as well, let's do this!

 

[AuNaturalMaMa]

I thanked the post because I want to join. I'm like an inch away from BSL my longest layer is that is. I have bangs that are nose lenght(from eyebrow lengh in Dec.) and my shortest layer is shoulder This summer I'm really trying to PS and leave my hair alone. Good Luck Ladies!

 

[Diva_Esq]

Haven't checked in here in forever. Still cowashing and pinning my hair up except weekends. Might trim my longest layer b/c it hangs much longer than the rest when I wear it out. Then back to growing! Won't be until like July though....

 

[NikkiQ]

UPDATE!!!!

I've finally made SL since becoming natural on Feb 25th!!

Hoping to be APL by the end of the year. It's only 3 inches away so if I keep up with my reggie, my Nioxin and PSing...I should be there.

 

[ZkittyKurls]

Checking in as well!!! I am hoping for APL by dec, the latest. and then maybe i can reach BSL by the end of next yr and WL by end of 2013. sounds like a plan, now if only time would hurry up so i can get there faster!

 

[Meritamen]

Congrats NikkiQ! What's Nixion (sounds fancy lol)?

 

[MyAngelEyez~C~U]

Checking in, I have about 2" till APL in the back (weird shag thing goin' on), hoping to get there by October/December...

 

[mikimix]

Can I join??
I'm SL/CBL right now. Aiming for APL by the end of the year, BSL by next summer and WL by 2013

 

[NikkiQ]

Congrats @NikkiQ! What's Nixion (sounds fancy lol)?

A fancy hair, skin and nail supplement . There's a whole thread on it here that I read and just HAD to try it out! I think it was the PJ in me.

 

[SmilingElephant]

Just stopping by!

Still on hiatus until next month!....anybody know of a vitamin that's safe for those of us with sensitive tummies? I was taking one a day women's but they make me reeeeeeally nauseous.

ETA: I, too have about 2 1/2 inches til I reach APL :woohoo2:

Tried the GNC Ultra Women's vitamin before? They may be a little better. We're very close in goals!!

Sent from my SPH-D700 using SPH-D700

 

[bajandoc86]

I want to join too pretty plz.....I actually thinking I'm a little delusional for even thinking I should, but hey, why not? So, I'm in.

 

[Meritamen]

I second the GNC Women's Ultra Mega multis.

I take those twice a day with no problem. How are you guys only 2 1/2 inches away from APL? Where in inches is APL on you guys? On me it is around 9 to 10 inches and I can only hope to get about 8 inches by the end of the year, I think. I so want to be APL by the year end but I'm trying to not get ahead of myself.

 

[Shadiyah]

I am 3" away from BSL and hoping that I will get there by the end of the year.

If I remember correctly...I think APL is 12 inches on me. I should really start keeping count ...WL on me is 27 inches.

I have over a years worth of newgrowth on my head since I transitioned for 8 months and am now 5 months natural....altogether 13 months of growing Shoot I BETTER be APL by December!

 

[Meritamen]

Mmmm looks like everyone here is going to go hard for Dec. goals. Ok then I ain't scared! Let's do this!
