I swear l could have written this post. l think it will take me a lot longer to reach apl. Not sure why l feel my hair is growing slow. It doesn't. The majority odds my hair grows half an inch per month. The nape grows a lot slower and is about 3 inches soever than the rest of my hair.
However, l am noticing progress even after a few setbacks so l know why its taking a lot longer due to cuts and lots of trimming.
My hair is longer then its ever been so l am happy about that but l have apl written as a major goal since l have never had had that length before. I know protective styling us the best option for me. Long term protective styling.
