Here's my rather large before pic. Headed for blunt cut brastrap length. Once I reach brastrap length (probably at my next touchup in March) I'll keep my length the same and gradually cut out the layers.

Hey everyone, just checking in. I plan to take pics this weekend and post my starting length to document my progress. I will be washing my hair every three days, and deep conditioning weekly. I will also do scalp massages before every wash. I plan to do the baggie technique until the challenge ends. Good Luck everyone!!

My scalp is itchy and shedding lately. Tonight I'm going to condition with mild protein (GPB and MNT). Now that I'm done showing off for the holidays, I'll bun up more consistently this month.

Right now my current length is about shoulder length. I will shampoo and deep condition once a week (Sunday) and do a conditioner wash mid-week. I plan on starting an excersing routine (hopefully I'll be able to stick to it - pray for me :look: ) so I'll probably be doing more conditioning washes throughout the week. After each wash I will be use Surge on my scalp and WGO on the ends. My styles will be buns and braidouts. I will use absolutely NO HEAT except to flat iron for update pics. I will get a touch up every 12 weeks with a trim if needed. I will also start taking vitamins consistently - Multi, Biotin, and B-Complex. I will post pics of my current length after my next touch up and trim. Happy Growing Ladies!!!

I'd like to join the challenge (if it's not too late -- that's what I get for going away for a month, lol).

I'm starting at a bit past shoulder length, and I'm aiming for brastrap by the end of the year.

I'm going heat free (3 months so far!) and extending my relaxers. I'll post a picture (or update my album) when I get back to my dorm room (and my digital camera).

:)

Count me in!!!
I'm new to the board and what a way to start off.

I need a digital camera but once I do I'll post pics of the back of my head. Till then I only have head shots to judge the length.

I'm 3.5 inches from brastrap - but I was a bad girl this weekend in Miami... I used heat constantly, and I can already tell the difference...

I'm back on the bandwagon now!

Yes indeed!!
I want to join! I want to join! I just saw a great wig on my cousin (we are going wig shopping this weekend) and my aunt just offered to braid my hair for me if I ever wanted it done! And now a grow out challenge so I can put those things to use?? Seems like Karma to me! I think my hair length is about 8-9 inches in the back, 11 inches on the sides and top. (These are estimates. Where is a ruler when you need one!) I'll post pictures soon!
