So ladies, we have our products. We have our regemins.

Ready set go!!!

Good Luck to you all, Happy Hair Growing and Happy New Year!

[Poohbear]

My Starting Length:

 

[sweetcakes14]

My hair is at shoulder length (see Avatar). My regimen wil consist of the following:

- Co-Wash every Saturday (Suave Humectant mixed w/ Honey and EVOO)
- Alternate between moisturizing (Salerm Shampoo and Salerm Wheat Germ)and light protein treatment (Conditioning Shampoo and Aubrey Organics GPB)weekly
- Moisturize twice daily (Mix EVOO and ORS Olive Oil)
- Keep ends moisturized
- Keep hair in protective style
- Trim only when necessary
- Relax every 8 weeks (Mizani Sensitive Scalp)
- Continue using LHCF as a sounding board

 

[keylargo]

Thanks DSD for organizing this challenge.

My hair is currently jawbone length all the way around-kind of like in a bob style. I'm working on my regimen still. There are some things that I want to do differently then before. I need to focus more on moisture and reduce protein. For now, I have to use it once a week because of my recent overprocessing fiasco. Once my hair has recovered, I will use protein once a month. I will also be working on stretching my relaxers longer then usual. I'm not sure how long I will go between touch-ups but it will be at least 10 weeks.

 

[Poohbear]

Btw Dsd, U R So Organized!

 

[Shawnee66]

I would like to join this challenge too!

I'm starting at shoulder length hair. I don't have a digital camera, but I will post a pic later after I get the ones I've taken developed.

Currently 13 weeks post relaxer (plan to relax this Sunday). I plan to wash my hair once a week (still trying to find hair products that work for me). I hope to get a cure for my hand in hair disease and better control of my new growth.

 

[BronzedGoddess]

Add me pretty please. I'm starting at shoulder length.

 

[Sharpened]

Current estimated length range: 7-11 inches all around. Current puff pic:

 

[mrslee]

HEY!!! Now that I had a trim, I believe I am 2.5 inches away from bra strap.

[Tene]

I believe 7 or 8 inches

 

[MizAvalon]

I'd like to join! This is perfect for me because after my trim in a few weeks I plan on not trimming for a year.
