First pictures in 13.5months of LHC

[Dars]

Hello everyone :) I happened to miss my one year anniversary so excuse the 13.5 month mark :p So here it goes...

What I started out with = nearly BSL, very layered. I shampooed the entire length, sometimes twice. Regular use of hair straightener, sometimes without "protectant" or when hair was damp. Ouch.

Onto today (tonight?). Yep, I don't think I've gained any length whatsoever (I don't measure) but I have been purposely growing out the layers (by slowly trimming them) in hopes of thickening up my hemline. I also trimmed to remove heat damage. My current routine is cone free CWC once or twice a week, I don't use towels on my hair and definitely no heat!

Thank-you LHC for the abundant amount of knowledge you have provided and the great community full of support. :cloud9:

I can't wait to see where my hair will be in another year's time now that hopefully I won't have to trim too much!
