My First Anniversary!!! (long and pict.heavy)

[serious]

Hi, everyone!
Today is my First Anniversary and I wanted to thank you, LHC people, for all the informations, support and friendship I got from you.:blossom:
( and no one never ever mentioned my blunt English, special thanks on that, too:o)

And now, I have some photos to share:

This was me pre-LHC( november 2007):

At that time, I used a ton of styling products because my grays were so different from the rest of my fine hair ( way coarser and drier) but nothing actually helped.And you can see how ’thick’ it was..

And than, I discovered henna ( from Lush) and it did miracles for my hair!So, I decided to grow my hair long

At this point, I joined this great community:

And everyting changed...I did a lot of experimens, learnt lot of stuff, swiched on to BAQ henna and indigo and even started to make hairtoys on my own!!
I made some really good friends and learned a lot, not only about hair, but about LIFE

So, this is how my hair looks now

And, this is me,wearing my first three prong hairfork that I made ( and I’ve never ever heard of hairforks before LHC):)

Sorry for being this long, thank you all, again!
Now I’m off to set up my goal to WAIST!:cheer:

I am doing henndigo glosses for more than a year and a half, my mix is 3 TBS dye released henna, 1 TBS indigo and 1 cup of conditioner and cover my roots first, than add some more conditioner and spread it over the length and leave it on my head for 4 hours.

What a difference a year makes! I can definitely see both an increase in length and also thicker, healthier ends. Also, your color is much richer and shinier than what you had before.
Keep up with the great care you have been doing! :cheese:

What is your waist length in inches?

It's about 32 inches, so I need 7 inches of growth to reach it :)

My plan is to do micro trims only and I hope I could reach my goal at the end of 2010.
( in spite of all those layers :rolleyes:)
