    LHC name: Leisha

    Current hair length: around 34 inches I'd say (87 cm) - a bit longer than waist

    Goal hair length: not sure... I keep changing my mind.

    When did you start growing your hair? I can't really remember, I've pretty much always had long hair.

    What is your average monthly growth rate? I've never measured consistently enough to find out but I think it's pretty average. About .6 inch or so? (1,5 cm)

    Do you trim your hair, if so how often? Yeah just now and then, every couple of months or just when I feel like it. I recently did a big trim, cut off about 5 inches (12 cm).

    What supplements do you take? None (I have some hair & nails vitamins, but I always forget to take them anyway, I think I gave them to my dad!)

    Do you eat any special foods for hair growth/nutrition etc? No, I try to eat healthy but that's not really with my hair in mind

    Do you do scalp massages? Not regularly

    What is your favourite shampoo? I loved my nettle shampoo and east indian cherry shampoo a lot but I don't know where to buy it anymore (used to buy it from a web shop) but now I use Urtekram nettle shampoo and that's good too

    What is your favourite conditioner? That's tough to answer because I have a bunch of conditioners that work well for me. I guess my favourite would be Inecto coconut conditioner.

    Favourite leave-in conditioner? I use aloe vera and coconut oil or a mix of shea, coconut and jojoba.

    Favourite deep conditioner or treatment? Again I have a few that work well, but Henna cure & care mask with aloe vera is definitely a favourite.

    What are your favourite basic oils? Coconut

    What are your favourite essential oils? I have lavender, tea tree and rosemary, but I don't use them often. If I had to pick one, I'd say lavender.

    What is your favourite product of all time? Aloe vera and coconut oil (yes, that's two products, but it's a tie)

    What is your least favourite product of all time? Hmm, Gliss Kur maybe... the lady on the packaging has such gorgeous hair and I used to always buy the products but they didn't work for me! (pre-LHC etc, before I knew about cones)

    Is there anything you would never put on your hair? (-cones/quats etc) I don't use cones, or mineral oils.

    What do you like most about your hair? It's quite thick

    What do you like least about your hair? Can get a bit fuzzy/frizzy/poofy

    Do you colour your hair? No

    Do you clarify? Not really, but I do use shampoo every wash and I often shampoo twice because I like my hair very clean (squeaky )

    How often do you wash your hair? Once every 10-14 days at the moment. Never more than once a week anyway.

    How long does it take to dry? Depends, but about a day usually.

    Do you prefer you hair up or down? I almost always have it up, that's what I'm used to.

    What is your favourite updo? I don't really have a favourite... I like the double looped knot or a french braided bun... dunno really!

    Bangs or no bangs? No bangs (but always half-considering getting them, lol)

    Whose hair at LHC do you aspire to? Another difficult question... there's so many gorgeous heads of hair.. straigt, wavy or curly. I just aspire to my best possible hair I suppose

    Do you keep a hair journal? Yep I started a blog here (which includes hair updates!)

    How many hairtoys do you own? Oh I should count... I'll get back to post the number!

    What is your favourite hairtoy? I love hairsticks in general. Ketylo's are definitely high up!

    Brush or comb? I only combed for years, but a few weeks ago I brushed my hair and it was nice! I'm going to investigate this further

    Do you use hot styling aids on your hair irons/blowdryer etc? No

    Do you make/sell any hair care products? No

    What is the last hair-related thing that you bought? Ummm... Oh yeah I have 4 ketylo's on the way

    What’s your favourite kind of cheese? Feta, "regular" dutch cheese (slightly aged), nettle cheese, ... depends on the occasion

    Share a funny/inspiring/shocking hair story if you have one: Can't think of one!

    LHC name: Medvssa

    Current hair length: I think it was 22", it is past BSL when wet, it can go over my shoulders when dry, depends on how temperamental the curls feel at the moment

    Goal hair length Waist, then we will see if I can get to waist when dry...

    When did you start growing your hair? I have been trying all of my life, but have been hindered one or other way, obviously. I've been actively trying to grow it vaguely healthier since about 2002 or so, when I shaved my head (very heavy shedding) and more seriously since I found this website, which I think was 2005. It is quite problematic due to shedding problems.

    What is your average monthly growth rate? No idea, certainly no more than 1/2 inch, it grows sloooowly.

    Do you trim your hair, if so how often? Only when I feel it is necessary, because of damage, or shedding. This is unfortunately too often.

    What supplements do you take? After my last heavy shedding, I started taking a multivitamin everyday. I haven't experienced a heavy shedding since, so I hope this is the solution. I've had to take big doses of iron in the past, for my anaemia. I go into iron deficiency very easily, I have had this problem all of my life. I don't absorb it normally. Apparently, I absorb the little amount of iron in my multivitamin better because it is mixed with other vitamins.

    Do you eat any special foods for hair growth/nutrition etc? I am ovo-lacto-vegetarian. This doesn't make my iron absorbtion problem better or worse.

    Do you do scalp massages? Too lazy...

    What is your favourite shampoo? I don't have a favorite shampoo. Shampoo is too drying. I use Henna cure and care for brown hair (this is a Dutch brand I think, Eveline or so) which is quite mild, once a week after a heavy oiling, but I cannot really say I like it.

    What is your favourite conditioner? For CO, I am debating between Henna Cure and Care Vegetable conditioner, and Wella Balsam Kruiden. I have to test them a little more seriously and choose one. In fact, my favorite is Herbatural conditioner, but it is only sold in Spain, not here in Belgium.

    Favourite leave-in conditioner? I like MMU make me smooth - On the mend leave in, but last week I bought a conditioner in the bio shop, Traay Noten, which seems to work as well or better as a leave in.

    Favourite deep conditioner or treatment? I like to mix shea butter and honey (and smaller amounts of other oils/butters) with my conditioner for a deeper conditioning treatment (or just conditioner after CO)

    What are your favourite basic oils? My hair likes coconut and avocado. And shea butter.

    What are your favourite essential oils? I haven't noticed my hair liking an EO over the other, but I like to use rosemary and patchouli for my hair and geranium for my skin, lavender for both. I think it is mostly a smell thing, but I have read they are good too

    What is your favourite product of all time? Unrefined shea butter.

    What is your least favourite product of all time? Some gels I tried in the late 80's were truly nasty.

    Is there anything you would never put on your hair? (-cones/quats etc) I don't know, I guess anything that sounds like a bad idea at the moment And paraffin.

    What do you like most about your hair? I've learned to like my curls. I like that is is coarse so it doesn't tangle easily and it doesn't tickle too much, and the curls keep the hair mostly out of my face. The strands are strong and can take quite a deal of abuse.

    What do you like least about your hair? The dryiness and porosity. It is very difficult to make it shine.

    Do you colour your hair? I liked henna, but I found some whites, so I stopped.

    Do you clarify? I haven't found any shampoo that clearly states "clarifying", regular shampoo makes my hair very squeaky clean afterwards.

    How often do you wash your hair? With shampoo, once a weeks tops. In addition I may CO once or twice a week.

    How long does it take to dry? 3 or 4 hours. Maybe 2 in high summer.

    Do you prefer you hair up or down? Down. I put it up when I am too warm (that is normally several times a day ;P)

    What is your favourite updo? Because of convenience, twist/coil it a bit and hold with a claw, which takes 3 seconds. I like a very loose updo or gibson tuck the best for me.

    Bangs or no bangs? Bangs end up being a couple of sausages at the sides my forehead, which is very flattering :P

    Whose hair at LHC do you aspire to? I have seen a few amazing heads of long, curly hair here at LHC, sorry I won't choose ;P Very long curlies are less often seen than very long straight/wavies, though.

    Do you keep a hair journal? I try to, I am not consistent. Trying again now

    How many hairtoys do you own? I have a few France luxe (combs, couple of sticks, a couple of clips), a couple of Mei Fa, a wooden fork, a couple of flowers, and a few claws.

    What is your favourite hairtoy? My France luxe clip on tige boulé is very hair friendly, but I don't find it I also love my Santa Fe comb, although I suck at putting it on.

    Brush or comb? Definitely comb. I scare my boyfriend when I brush my hair.

    Do you use hot styling aids on your hair irons/blowdryer etc? Blowdrier on lower setting (practically cold) very now and then (maybe 4 or 5 times a year) when my hair is seriously wet and it is seriously cold outside. Only at the roots.

    Do you make/sell any hair care products? Yes, I love to mix stuff :P

    What is the last hair-related thing that you bought? Conditioner.

    What’s your favourite kind of cheese? Sheep manchego

    Share a funny/inspiring/shocking hair story if you have one: I cannot think of anything. Finding LHC was/is certainly inspiring.

    Share a funny/inspiring/shocking hair story if you have one: I'm a former dye-head. I used to have a strip of bleached hair that I dyed varying combinations of pink, blue, purple, and turquoise. When my hair was short I religiously used ruby red hair dye every few months. I bleached my whole head myself once. It was a disaster. I once even tried dying with grape koolaid. My hair turned black for like a day, and I attracted a lot of bees and flies.

    Say one nice thing about the person who posted before you: Medyssa has a super cute cat!! I also love her bouncy curls.

    ETA: Emichee posted before I could, so I just wanted to compliment her too. She has beautiful hair that is so straight and always elegant. She makes wearing her hair down seem effortless. Plus, I think she looks amazing with a ponytail!!!
