End of the Year Growth Photo!

[racheldelrey]

Feel free to move this to another thread if need be, mods! I'm so excited to see that my hair is actually growing! Left picture is from August when I made the bold decision to cut it shorter than it's probably ever been. It was an angled bob but I trimmed the front up earlier this month. Now it is mostly one length!

[Groovy Granny]

Nice growth!

Are you growing out your natural color?

[Stray_mind]

Really nice! I love how your hair glistens in the light :)

[hayheadsbird]

Here’s mine!

Left: 2016, hair straightened.
I was at BSL unstretched, and MBL stretched.

Right: 2017, my waves were frizzy today and didn’t want to clump together properly because of the weather.
I’m at hip unstretched, and nearly TBL stretched.

I had a 4 inch trim in October, and another inch off in November.

Happy holidays everyone!

Wow, all that growth and that much trimmed off? That's impressive.

[racheldelrey]

Thank you! It is red and black but does look especially nice due to the camera flash. haha.

[racheldelrey]

Thanks!! Nah, dying my hair is one thing I will never be able to give up. I want it longer and healthy but knowing me, if it's my natural color I'll get too bored and end up chopping It!

[racheldelrey]

Holy smokes, not only is your hair perfect, but your body is hangin! You are all around goals!

[racheldelrey]

Well look there, the noob screwed up the replies :rolleyes: Y'all will have to forgive me for being such a doper haha.

Thank you all so much for the encouragement! Everyone's hair is looking beautiful!

[Beeboo123]

Thank you racheldelrey. Your hair is so glossy! What is your natural color, if I may ask? You’re so lucky, your hair looks so healthy even though you dye it. Mine just turns out fried. What do you do to keep it looking so soft and shiny?

Here is my growth from April to December... April is when I decided to start growing my hair long. I think this is the longest my hair has ever been, looking forward to seeing what 2018 brings! :)

My hair is dirty blonde. Trust me, it has been in awful shape! I used to bleach all the time and it showed. But I haven't bleached since July and have trimmed it a lot. I use Mystic Divines Nourishing Mask every time I wash and sometimes mix it with a big slab of cholesterol. I have sworn off of heat styling and that has made it much shinier, which is crazy since I used to straighten it to make it look more shiny! Dark dyes always make my hair look healthier, but look who's talking! Yours looks extremely soft and shiny!

You took off five inches and still grew that much? I think this would've been great growth without a trim!

And May and October are basically the same because I cut about 2-2.5" in June to get rid of the last layer I had from my undercut!
