Thanks to LHC, after much experimenting, my routine is this (yeah im keeping it simple):
SLS free shampoo and conditioner every 3-4 days

· Wide tooth comb but I mainly finger comb

· I make my own hair sticks

· I braid a lot

· I keep my hair in protective hairstyles 98% of the time

· I learned to use lots of amazing protective buns

· I have satin pillow cases

· I S&D and trim every few months (I use the Feyes method only for trimming)

· I use coconut oil as my go to oil

It has taken me 2 years (it will be 2 years in just one week, sorry im a bit early because im busy and I don’t want to post much later) to get from shoulder length to now Waist. My goal is Classic, I wish to maintain there for a while and see where the journey takes me next.


Thank you LHC <3

Hey Tini, you are a pretty girl! Congrats on your 2 year LHC anniversary! You have beautiful hair :)

You look very similar to someone I know :) Good to see how different you wore your hair over the years, different cuts etc. I too agree that first V cut is really gorgeous. In my opinion V cut looks amazing on those who have thick hair. What a simple routine you follow. Thanks for sharing these.

Tini, your hair is definately stunning, I would cut my arms off to have a growth like yours (but that would be a problem with braiding)!

You'll be at classic in no time!

So neat to put a face with the hair finally! I sort of feel like your turbo-growth is famous around here :D Your luscious, shiny locks have been a favorite for me on these boards, and I love the photo journey you shared with us. Happy anniversary! :blossom::blossom:

Wow, Tini! Your hair quality is so great that you can pull off any hair length and style with ease! You look beautiful in all of those pictures. =*)
Also, you make your own hairsticks? =o Do you have any pictures of them here at LHC? *curious*

Thank you all so much once again!!! You guys rock!!! I got the biggest smille on my face after reading all of your comments :)

Sorry that i have removed most of the pictures which made up for more than half of the post, thats because i dont want to show my face anymore and I really just wanted them up for a little bit to get in the true spirit of celebrating. It made me happy to show as many pics as i could of my jorney (not that i had an awful lot anyway)

Wosie, I havent actually thought about taking pictures of my sticks... I dont know :)) I make my sticks out of chopsticks, i use my nail file to shape it up/make it smoother and pointy, then i apply nailpolish (whatever colour i like) and I use a glue gun to add decorative bits to them :)

Pics! Pics! Pics! Pretty please! :D I've only got chopsticks, too (hair sticks are impossible to find here in my part of Qld). I finally found some chopsticks at Woolies--on special at the end of the haircare section, mind you! I've snipped a few down to 7" (leaving the pointy end), and have all my MUD cheapie nail polishes, and some others, at the ready. Thinking of marbling, too.
