One year ago, I got a Pob (a-line bob) that was dyed blue-black. Since then, it has faded to a brown, I have henna'd it, and not trimmed or cut in the meantime. I've gone no cone, no heat, and no SLS. HERE ARE THE RESULTS!
The beginning (November 27th, 2008 ):
I had gotten the haircut and color on this night. I straightened my hair daily, used cones and SLS shampoos. Eventually this color faded to a greenish brown.

Now (Taken on November 27th, 2009):
I henna my hair regularly, deep condition with EVOO, don't use cones or SLS shampoos, and no longer dry or style my hair with heat.

Progress (November 27th, 2008 - November 27th, 2009):
A year full of no trims. What do you think, decent growth?

That's very good growth! :thumbsup: Thank you for sharing these pics, I got a short cut in September and vowed not to trim for a year, so this was just the inspiration I needed!

Oh there were rough spots. The secret is being poor for the most part, and my hairdresser friend REFUSED to do it for me until I hit the 1 year mark. Then the 1 year mark snuck up on me because mostly I put it up and forgot about it.

That's some decent growth. Wish my hair would grow that fast... Imagine where you will be in another year!
Sounds great with a hair dresser who refuses to cut. I don't have any hair dresser friends, but the hair dressers I have met have wanted to chop off and color my hair :P

No, I didn't S&D. I'm doing a trim soon, tomorrow I think.
I've been inspecting it, and there aren't even that many splits.
A bottom half inch will take care of it.
Thank you everyone!
