I don't know if its possible, but even if we dont make 12 inches, anything at 6inches or more would be an achievement for everyone. :look:

Count me in ladies! I am doing this and the extreme simple, or something like that, and dc challenge. I just received my DeLouise growth elixir in the mail Saturday and will start using it today after I finish deep conditioning. I have yet to get my vitamin regimen together but exercise 6-7 days a week but MUST increase my water intake(I am so not a water drinker :nono:).

Ok this a great opportunity for me to pick up some slack and stay on track for the sake of my hair. I just did an all over trim. I would like to get 5 inches by New Years Eve. This is a reachable goal for me.

Changes:
-Take hair vitamins everyday (Biotin, MSM, B- 100, Nioxin Vits)
- Exercise at least 3-4 days a week
- magnetic rollersets when wash/condition hair
- bantu knots at night or loose wrap
- Constant moisturizing when dry and clarification for buildup
- Back to minimal heat use!!!!!:wallbash:

LADIES!! Count a sister in!! :yep:

I just started the co-washing today with Tresemme Natural. I also use an MN mix that only contains Hot 6 Oil and MN. I do Callanetics three times a week, and am trying to up my water intake. I also massage my scalp twice a day, and have to do better with my vitamins.

I wash, with shampoo, twice a week; and will be DCing at least two times a week. (Any DC tips?!)

I know that protein will help, so... Does anyone have a protein-packed menu that they swear by?

Thanks!
me~:rolleyes:

12 inches in 12 months? Count me in!! I just recently had my hair cut (no more shoulder length!!!:nono:). I now have my Mega Tek and have made my appointment to have my hair done in senegalese twist for the next year anyway. :ohwell: So now, I have to start all over. As someone else mentioned, consistency is key, so I will be using my MT every single day without hesitation during this grow out time:yep:.

I will post pics soon!!

I'm doing my MT every night - I don't think I got an inch last month, but then, I've only been MT'ing consistently again for two weeks.
This month, I'm DEFINITELY going for an inch - it's high summer, too!?? Oh, hecky yeah.

I'm late, but I'll join in:

Exercise- running 4-5 times per week
Protective styling about 75% of the time
Get plenty of protein, rest and water
Vitamins (flax, omega 3-6-9, spirulina, msm, multi, b-complex, and kelp)
Apply herbal scalp oil mix and moisturize daily

Good luck everyone !:grin:

Oh my hair is natural and about 5-5.5 inches long (it varies in different places).

I'm in but I'm realistic I'll amend this challenge to 6inches in 12months. I am taking vitamins and trying to co-wash once a week, air dry, and no heat. Lets see what happens.

I'm pretty sure I didn't get my inch...but I had NO breakage this month meaning I'm retaining:yay:. This has been my biggest hurdle.

Hey I want to join, I was trying to do something similar to this on my own but its more motivating to do it with others!
so if i grow @ least 1 in per month til june that'll be 11 inches, I probably will only retain about 7inches of that (due to trims n whatnot).
I usually grow about 1-1.5 cm a month, but I just started taking MSM and I am using a deep conditioner for the first time lol.
So hopefully this works!

I haven't measured yet but I will at the begining of Aug.

Great job to the ladies that saw growth. Even if it wasn't an inch there was still growth and that's what counts.

I started this challenge in june 2008, I only have 6 more months. I already had 3 more inches in 6 months. So I hope to get a bit more for the next 6 months. I knew I never would of have 12 inches in 12 months but I was hoping for 6 to 8 inches and it looks like I am going to achieve it. YEAH
