Technically my one year would have been in July although I had joined even before that but it wasn't until September when I chopped off about 5-6 inches, that I decided to get serious about taking care of my hair. So I consider September my one year!

Wow what a year. I learned so much at LHC and my hair....well not only has it surpassed the length it was this time last year before the chop, but it is sooooo much healthier.

I have ZERO split ends. I haven't cut anything since my chop and I don't even have to S&D anymore!

My hair feels 200% better. I no longer use heat and I have actually learned to style my hair better without.

I stretch washes every six days.

I am sulfate, cone and product free!

I have learned to do (and love) beautiful updos!

And finally I quit bleaching my hair and have a good 4 inches of virgin hair now :D

In summary, I came here with tattered, hopeless hair. Bleached, heat tortured, chemically processed, stripped and dyed again. It was a wreck and now....I have GREAT hair!

Thanks LHC and here's to another great year.... :beerchug:

Your hair looks so much healthier, I'm happy for you!
I hope my one-year pics look as good as yours do!
Also, your tattoo is interesting. Is it all one tattoo? It looks very detailed.

Wow, your hair is so beautiful. The difference is stunning.

I tell myself that I will continue highlighting, then I see your hair's beautiful progress and start second-guessing myself. I don't believe this is the first time your lovely locks have tempted me to try the natural route:) But it's oh so scary to commit....and the regrowth!! Ack...what to do, what to do??

Your hair is so gorgeous....I may have to give my virgin hair a chance too:eyebrows:
