Gorgeous Lucia you are definitely on the grow!

PeculiarDaye hey! 2011 I trimmed a lot of the layers away like 4-6 inches so I've been at MBL for a while but I should reach blunt WL by December. Excited!

bigbrowneyez beautiful curls & growth! I probably said it before but it deserves praise again! Keep it up lady!

LaVgirl you are past that tiny waist of yours lady! Can't wait to see your straightened hair. Good job!

 

[Ms. Tiki]

Ladies, would you mind if I join this challenge? My ultimate goal was WL but not I want to grow to WHIP so my hair can be WL unstretched. I have 2.5 to get to WL so I'm think I can make WHIP by the end of the year if I stay away from the scissors.

 

[bebezazueta]

Welcome Ms.Tiki

Never too late to join. Hope I got your mention right

 

[Ms. Tiki]

Thanks! Naw, it didn't come up right. I just happened to come in the thread

hey y'all - I used a brazilian keratin treatment last week, hoping to reduce some poof and frizz in my hair for the summer. While it was flat ironed, I did a 1/2 inch trim.

After my 1st wash since the BKT, my hair is curly (supposed to be straight but I'm ok with it), soft and feels moisturized. I'm happy that there's minimal frizz, breakage and shedding.

This will work for me for summer wng. My hair tolerates heat really well so I'm not concerned about flat ironing at 450 once a month for the treatment.

Hope everyone's hair is growing like weeds!

I went to the salon today for a hair cut. Pre trim I was at waist length in the back the shortest layer was at my collar bone. After the trim my hair is at W L at the longest layer the rest is full M B L. The shortest is below my chin. I haven't had a hair cut in years or a good flat iron. I didn't realize how long my hair was.

So I made W L length. I'll grow it out over the summer but it gets to be a pain to style now. So I'll probably cut it again at the end of the year.

I did a co-wash yesterday and took a quick pic of my progress since December. It actually looks like I could make W"HIP" by years end..oh yeahhhh.....:bouncegre

I've been lurking in WL2012 more so than here. I figured one step at a time but since I'm close, hheeeeyyyyy!

 

[bebezazueta]

I'm happy for you guys!

[regina07]

Sorry, left the pic out. LOL

Such a great pic and retention! You can see the growth since Dec '11. No doubt you'll hit W"HIP" this year.

 

[pre_medicalrulz]

regina07 Thanks!!! I'm crossing my fingers.

 

[Mische]

pre_medicalrulz Wow-ee! Your retention is on point.

 

[pre_medicalrulz]

Mische

Thanks! Hopefully I'll be your length in the near future.

 

[bigbrowneyez]

Congrats pre_medicalrulz!!! Absolutely beautiful!

As for me, its update time :-D. I'm 8weeks post relaxer. I blow dried my hair last night, no flat iron. I think I'm about waistlength tho I won't claim anything until my relaxer in August. I should pick up another inch by then. Then hopefully whip by September or October.

Thank you! I am relaxed and I'm currently wearing wigs for constant protection & retention. I deep condition every Friday.

I'm 12 weeks post and tilted in the pic. I flat ironed last night and my longest layer is less than 1" from WL. Sorry about the spray on the mirror. I'm a lil heavy handed

It looks beautiful, Ms. Tiki. And you did a great flat iron job!

 

[Ms. Tiki]

NJoy Thanks! I'm going to use my split-ender in a bit when my stomach stops acting crazy. It's funny to have my hair in a ponytail and it's pass BSL. I still feel like my hair is short

Ms. Tiki

Welcome to the other side.

 

[Ms. Tiki]

NJoy I tilted my hair back and went maybe not WHIP. Maybe I'll go for HL. Umm...the Mr. put the brakes on any thoughts of cutting so I might as well let it keep growing
