BSL/MBL 2014 Challenge

[Jace032000]

Thanks to my consistent moisturizing and sealing, my hair was was ridiculously moisturized. Like... It has never felt so soft yet strong during a wash day so I decided to flat iron my hair for the date. Andddd it was totally worth it. Putting extra moisturizer and a heavy oil on my hair the night before helped A LOT.

I felt sexy and I could tell it definitely boosted my confidence and flirtiness. I'm still looking forward to getting a trim on Friday.



@Jace032000 the date went extremely well! He took me to a really nice sushi restaurant and ordered SO MUCH FOOD--I guess he was trying to impress me. Afterwards we played pool (my suggestion) and we shared a steamy goodnight kiss He already asked me out ago for next Monday (it's his day off). Woohoo!

​

Gurrrllll I see you posted this at 0330 AM! LOL! Must've been a really good night. I'm so glad you had a really good time--and a follow-up date!!

 

[isawstars]

isawstars Good going! Did you take any pics...of your hurr for us?

Froreal3 haha. Right when I was posing for a selfie, he called me saying he was almost at my place. Ya'll aren't missing out on much. I mean, it looks nice but these ends are holding back my hair's potential. I will post before and after photos on Friday when I get my trim. I'm never waiting 4 months to trim ever again!

Well, if we're gonna get precise about it... I posted at 1:30am in my time zone. But I know, that's still pretty late for a first date. Don't you worry, we were both on our best behavior... just didn't want the night to end, I guess.

 

[BraunSugar]

Hey buddy BraunSugar.....your hair made my eyes pop. Loving the purple, what did you use?

Hey grow buddy! I used Beyond The Zone Purple Passion and Raspberry Kamikaze.

 

[coolsista-paris]

Froreal3 girl! you are FOREVER making me laugh coolsista-paris Okay, so you gave me an idea... how about this: I will wash my hair and style it as if I'm going to wear a wash n go. I will evaluate how it looks as it air dries... If it looks HAM, I will flat iron.

how did it go???? lol what did you end up doing?

 

[coolsista-paris]

Hi guys! I'm checking in! I haven't been on in a while. Dealing with life. Nothing bad. Anyway, I mentioned a while ago that I wanted to use some semi permanent purple on my hair to make my highlights purple. Well, I did that: http://s1319.photobucket.com/user/emmyrose420/media/purple-highlights4_zps8ff8b786.jpg.html This is how it looked after my first wash. It fades a lot more quickly than red does. It's very light now and will probably be gone before the end of April. The results never fully translated to pictures, but it did come out very well. I'm out of MSM. I'll prob order some this week. I am taking multivitamins currently. The back layer of my hair is grazing MBL which is great since I just did that shaping cut recently. I'm probably not going to do an official length check until June. Now I'm gonna go back and try to get caught up in this thread.

beautiful!

[ImanAdero]

I dunno if I gave my actual LC photo in HERE.

I'm gonna go ahead and claim MBL. I might recant later and take it back if I get a bout of hairnorexia... But I'm gonna go ahead.

The tape measure is where my waist is.

[Duchess007]

Welp. I haven't been on here in MONTHS due to a terrible end of year at work, which led to me looking for a new job. I have been in my current job for about a month and life is starting to settle down. Just in time for the next length check and I predict... no growth. LOL

I didn't henna my hair from December to last week and my hair was definitely showing it. Will do an official length check this weekend and I'm looking forward to lots of pretty hair pics from you ladies! In the meantime, I will be catching up by reading back over what I've missed since the beginning of the year.

Happy Hump Day!

 

[Duchess007]

@Duchess007 where you at chica?

I'm back girl! I have missed SO MUCH on this forum. I'm slowly making my way through the challenge, literally reading every page. You have been holding it together!

You must be about done with your Priteva now, right? What's the verdict?

We are all waiting to hear your results. I want to add another Vit to my regimen.

Hoping to make MBL by June!!!

 

[Froreal3]

^^I want MBL by June too jprayze. I was about 3 inches away at my last LC. I don't get average growth of 1/2" per month though...so let's hope this Priteva helped me get closer to average. I'm not looking for 1" per month like most ppl are with vitamins...I'd take 1/2" just fine!

Hi all, I haven't been in this thread for donkey years. I have been having a love and hate relationship with my hair and finally decided to cut it. I will bow out the challenge.
I had a short Devacut.

Very cute cut! Do you plan on maintaining it at that length or grow it out g.lo?

My order of Hairfinity has been shipped so watch out ladies! I'll be joining you soon and bombarding this challenge with daily posts again *insert evil laugh* :angeldevi

Hey NiqqiQ, no I won't keep it short. I will see the stylist again in 5 six months time for a trim ( unless my ends get bad before).
He made me promise not to cut, trim my own hair anymore and leave it to him, basically we are aiming for this shape (see pic) when my hair gets longer:.
I was really happy with the stylist, he knew what he was doing and used the deva curl products ( which I am thinking of buying, love it)

 

[GettingKinky]

I have fallen in love with braidouts. And now that I seem to have found the right products and can do it with 2-3 braids this may become my staple style.

So I'm seeing a few ladies using vitamins and such. What are you guys using and is it working for you?

(Kinda feels like a question of the day )
