Bsl/mbl 2018 Challenge!!

[Prettymetty]

I prepood my hair with Chroma Riche and Brahmi oil. Then I washed with Dove Dermacare shampoo. I used the Frizz Ease conditioner on my ends. Then I blowdried and put in some jumbo braids.

I got a new wig. It's synthetic, so not sure how long it'll last. I do plan on buying a lace lob though.

 

[Caramel74]

These are some cute soft fluffy curls!

Thank you

 

[Caramel74]

Ion think I could get more desperate for a set of rollers. Took an evening bath and idk what to do with my kinky wet hair... This is coming down bc I think I will cry in the morning....

I've really slacked on my supplements intake lately, I'm back on it now with a vengeance.

eta: I also bought a new blender as my old one died ages ago and didn't replace it. I'll be having a lot of green smoothies for iron and lots of other benefits.

I've mastered my wash and go:

• CurlyProverbz Hair Tea (with aloe Very powder) under shingled Bronner Brothers gel is awesome for my wngs.
• Learning to plop overnight in a microfiber towel (following Mahogany Curls's method) is changing my whole hair life.

So now I'm super ready to grow!

Toward that end, for Q2 2018, Lord willing I will:

1. Continue eating keto and paleo meals
2. Up my water intake
3. Continue with my iron pills
4. Continue with my collagen and hyaluronic acid powder in Keto Bullet Proof Green Tea or in grape juice
5. Get fitter, then sign up with the personal trainer I found
6. Continue trialing dubaidee4c's max hydration method (it's super streamlined), and
7. Incorporate fermented rice water into my regimen (for growth and protein)

Those are the current foci!

I love this style on you. And your definition is popping. Can't believe that this is day 6! Your hair really really loves this gel.

I haven't done an official length check this year even though I joined this challenge. I've always been ambivalent when it comes to length checks and at the end of last year, I was a little disheartened after my hair growth appeared stagnant, and cutting away my progress, so I wanted to pay it no mind for a little while.

On Saturday, a friend pulled my hair at the back (the longest length near my nape) and confirmed that it's about an inch away from touching my bra strap. In my mind this means that the longest length must be BSB! I didn't take pics but I am excited about my progress and growth possibilities for the rest of the year.

 

[LushLox]

Well done @AbsyBlvd KUTGW!

It can be so difficult to see your own progress.

Yes! That is good to hear!

 

[GGsKin]

Thank you @LushLox and @YvetteWithJoy
Say it again LushLox but I am paying attention

 

[apple_natural]

I'm with @AbsyBlvd I was bummed about my last length check Sunday I I was going to do something with my hair and started to straighten it.

I missed the section that's still pinned up which I want to note everywhere in case I freak out later. I will have to take another one but I'm worried it was all an optical allusion lol

[BrownSkinPoppin]

Got a wash, steam treatment and blow out this past weekend. currently wearing my hair in french braids. I might go back to doing my own hair because trying to go every two weeks is adding up.

i also oiled my scalp with the curly proverbs oil..but once I run out I'm not making more because I can't deal with the smell. I need a growth oil that smells nice

 

[Prettymetty]

I'm wearing a lace bob wig. I put some messy curls in.

I still wash and dc my hair twice a week. It's braided underneath

Eta. I interviewed for another job today and I got it!!

Look how gorgeous you are, and Pretty, my goodness your wigs look so real. I would never even think it was a wig.

 

[LushLox]

Congratulations on getting your new job @Prettymetty

Thanks boo! And yes, this is a great wig. It looked really nice before I washed it. I can never get it straight enough now, so I just wear it messy/wavy

Taking my braids out around the 3-4 week mark to avoid any setbacks. Not sure what I want to do with my hair after that.

After last week's activities of shampoo, protein, only a so-so DC, and clay on Saturday, my hair was feeling a little dry. I moisturised it last night by dampening with water, smoothing in some APB Creamy Hair Pudding and Shea mix. I usually don't like so much product but my parched hair's thirst was quenched and today my hair feels lubricated but not greasy. I baggied my ends before tying up for bed and will baggy again tonight.

ETA: I've taken my hair down and it does feel kinda greasy, well it leaves my fingers greasy...but I'm ok with it for now.

 

[LushLox]

I did an all day pre-poo today while I was at work. I got away with it, it wasn't horribly oily or greasy or anything. It just saves time having to do it when I get home. I'm DC'ing now.

I've got to get back on a consistent mid week DC because my results were so much better when I did.

 

[apple_natural]

I don't feel like braiding my hair but it needs to be braided... I don't feel like spending 100++ to have someone else do it either.... Guess I am putting in huge box braids this weekend

How did you find them, are you going to repurchase?

https://themanechoice.com/collections/hair-growth-vitamins

but they're available in stores too. Target, Walmart, Sallys.

And yeah I have about 6 bottles left. I've been taken them on and off for about two years. But once I finish my bottles I'm gonna do Beautifully Bamboo vitamins again

 

[Prettyeyes]

Put my hair in crochet braids!

 

[Prettyeyes]
