I will be in this challenge at least 2 more years, maybe 3. Going to dust every other month and get a haircut once a year. I will need to keep up my proteins as well. My hair thrives proteins.

You know I corrected that too, this darn autocorrect is a monster. Lol

 

[bebezazueta]

Yay JJamiah one of my hair mentors! We will still be here. I will make a Whip 2013 thread in November!

 

[blackberry815]

My I just realized I joined this challenge... I need a better method of remembering what challenges I have joined...

 

[Blessedwithabundance14]

Girl we need your reggie!

1. I wash every 2 weeks using Shea Moisture Shampoo mixed with EVOO
2. DC with SE moisture conditioner w/ the white top
3. add KCKT as a leave in
4. Seal hair with whipped shea butter, cocoa butter, EVOO, Grapeseed oil, Jojoba oil, JBCO mix.

I am going to start washing with clay to see if that is a little less drying than with poo.

I do braids, twists, and buns 99% of the time. Protective styling was essential to retention.

 

[bebezazueta]

Hello "whippers"! 4 more months in 2012! Are we doing everything to retain the last few inches? I hope so!

I'm 3 inches from WHIP! I trimmed so much this year but I'm still happy with my hair.

Diva_Esq will be starting the 2013 WHIP thread. So be on the lookout & join it. I'll see you beautiful ladies over there!

bebezazueta: No, no!!!! I'm sorry, honey!!! I didn't know you had the 2012 thread!!! I'll let you keep the HL/ WHIP L threads going for 2013!! That's why I asked in the thread I created. I don't want to step on any toes or be duplicative!!! Thanks for pointing me to the right direction!! I'll be looking out.

No Diva_Esq go ahead lady! I sucked at being a thread leader LOL! I'll gladly support. No toes stepped on here. So start the thread & we will come on over. Thanks!

 

[bebezazueta]

pre_medicalrulz thanks lady! You inspire me with all that lush long mane of yours! I've been bunning out of laziness & this weight loss journey I'm on. Working out 6 days a week so buns is all I do. I may do my hair next week & snap a pic. If not end of next month for sure when I relax.

 

[bebezazueta]

Ok I decided to wash & airdry in a ponytail today. I washed this morning & hair is still wet.

I washed with ORS creamy aloe shampoo. This gives me slip like none other & conditioned with joico thickening conditioner which has protein in it. Did all of this in the shower.

Here's my wet hair.


Here's my airdried hair. WHIP is where my belt is & my right hand is on my hip! I'm 8.5 weeks post relaxer.

[USER][/USER]bebezazueta, very lovely, your hair has grown, are you still doing the rollersets regularly?

Thanks lady! Ironically no regular roller sets. I've been bunning faithfully cause I workout 6 days a week. OT I lost 50 lbs with 20 more to go. It's funny how my hair really took off when I focused on weightloss. Oh well!

I know there are over 3 months left in this challenge but it's looking like Whip Length might have to wait for 2013. I'm happy with my progress thus far and I'll still post a picture of my hair in December after my next relaxer and trim. But I know I won't see Whip Length. The picture attached is from this weekend's relaxer and trim. Happy hair growing, ladies.

Looking really good! No worries, I'll be in WHip 2013 also. Can't wait to see your December update.

I love your ends!
Don't worry, I won't be WHIP either. I'm going to try to stay realistic next year and only join challenges I know I can accomplish. It's depressing not reaching a goal...just a little.

Next year December I'm sure WHIP is not in the stars for me either so...yeah. My waist is so far from my hips.... sigh

 

[leiah]

I'm at what I want to call elbow length. I think i'll be trimming back to waist length in November, my ends are looking thinner than I would like

Some say your elbows fall at your waistline. Maybe you're waist?

 

[bebezazueta]

Well! I'm thinking about cutting my hair back to APL! I had really short layers when I started my hair journey and now my shortest layer is APL so if I blunt cut it even, I'll be healthy full thick APL. My ends at MBL look so thin because of layers and needing a trim.

I don't think I want to join any more length challenges. LOL! My hair does best when I'm not trying.
