I recently cut about 2 inches off my hair because the ends were
damaged and split. It took me 4 months to grow those 2 inches and now I
want them back and then some….lol. Since
my trim, I have been thinking of different ways that I can care for my hair
without hardly any manipulation. My overall
goal is to grow my hair to waist-length with my “DREAM GOAL” being hip or
classic length. I hope to reach my WL
goal in 2013! I’m right at BSL, even
after the trim but I still feel like I have a ways to go to reach my goal.
I will be incorporating protective styling into my hair care
regimen so I’m starting with a 90 day Protective Style Challenge for myself and
anyone else who wants to join in! :-) The goal is to keep
my hair in a protective style (PS) for 80-90% of the time over the next 90 days
or 3 months. I’m growing this head of
hair OUT! I will also eating a healthier
diet, exercising, and taking vitamins. I
may also use some growth aids (MN mix and others).
I’m not using products to grow my hair because care and
handling is the most important thing for growth, when it comes to my growth and
length retention. However, I do use the “As
I Am” product line (the leave-in, co-wash, and moisturizer), Elasta QP Cream
Conditioning Shampoo, any Dominican deep conditioner, Rapunzal’s Hair of the
Future Protein treatment, Proclaim Natural 7 Oil and other terrific natural
oils (EVOO, EVCO etc)…and that is it. I’m
hoping to promote a faster growth rate and retain some more hair.
The Overall Protective Style Challenge: July 21, 2012 to October 19, 2012
