i have a love hate relationship with shrinkage. i love it because i love big volumous hair!!!
and you need shrinkage for big hair. but then i hate it cause it can be discouraging sometimes not seeing your true length outside of the shower lol

A southern tease bun or donut bun works best on shorter hair I find. Or even doing two buns instead of one helps.

Kudos to all who have hung in thus far!

Congrats to all who have reached a new length goal!

And thanks to all who have shared updates/pics/ideas!

It's hard to believe we only have 18 more days...

I've been bunning steadily, (using my passes more often than I planned,) but my ends look good. Can't really tell if I've gained any length because I don't track so well, and since I'm transitioning I've got some shrinkage.

I think I'm going to continue thru spring and see what I can accomplish by summer.:yep:

So I am thinking that I'll do my next straightening for Easter which will be in the beginning of April. I think I've gained some length but I'm hoping my ends are ok and I don't have to trim too much. My ends are so fragile - even with bunning.....:(

Ooooooh! Can't wait to see! I hope your ends are ok. Why do you think they're so fragile?

I have no idea. Maybe it's in my mind. I like absolutely perfect ends and when they aren't, I trim. I hate see thru ends. That's prob why I'm stuck at MBL. I won't let it just go.
