Thank you, ladies. I thought it was growing slowly.
I think it's because I'm so impatient and everyone's album always has a nice photo of their long, strong hair. I've noticed that I have really thin hair so I have to be gentle with it and lay off the heat. That would explain my lack of cute styles in my album (sorry). Anyway, thanks for all the words of encouragement. Hopefully, I will reach my goal by Christmas.
@lthomas: If we are hair twins then I need to get a mirror because you have some awesome curls. Everytime I see your hair I have to do a double take because you could pass for a family member of mine (hair wise not personality. My family is crazy. LOL)
