Checking in ...
Hi ladies! I have completed a new install of marley twists but I did not dust my hair like I intended. I thought that the phase of the moon was different (growing and not getting smaller), but luckily I noticed that before I got to cutting. I don't know when I will dust/trim, more than sometime in the fall.
My hair is doing great. I am continuing to enjoy my regimen. When I take my braids down, my hair is moisturized and detangles easily. I used a moisturizing pre-poo (Chicoro's recipe), shampooed with whateva I shampooed with, and used Aphogee two-step for protein. Thereafter, I d/c with Last Call and prepped my hair for braiding. (I don't think I will do the Aphogee two step next time, I did not like the way my hair felt after using the product. Next time, I will use Aphogee 2 minute reconstructor and call it a day.)
The good news is that I am at BSL now. I am surprised that my hair grew 1.25-1.5 inches like I hoped it would from the last length check. I did not think that I would ever make it to BSL. Hopefully the rest will be gravy from here. Going from APL to BSL was harder for me than growing from collarbone to APL.
I am giving up on the egg shakes (which I think helped me with growth) because of tummy issues and will continue with applying sulfur mix at least once a week. I definitely need to step up my daily moisturizing because my scalp is dehydrated.
nakialovesshoes- great question ... I hope to be scraping MBL by next length check. It is wishful thinking but hey, anything is possible.

I hope you all are doing well ...
