Hi LHC!
I can believe it has been one year, I come here so often that I feel like I have been here forever! Over the past year, I have tried:
-No poo & Cowashing-scalp disliked
-No cones, but with SLS due to above issue-length disliked
-Gave up flat ironing except special occassions since 06/2010
-Stretching trims from every 4-6 wks to every 3 months!
-Coconut oil & Bassau oil-in love
-Olive oil-fail
-MN 2% generic cream- got headaches but would try again
-Braids-failed b/c of layers
-Buns-variation of cinnabun to sleep
-USE UP STASH CHALLENGE-did this until recently; I have been having hard water challenges in my apartment, which leads to:
-Clarifying shampoo-bought today as a present!

My Hair began APL:

And got close to waist:

And with my trim today now looks like this:

She used a clarifying poo hence the poof and wave that is usually nonexistant now.
I am so glad I am close to reaching my goals of no layers and Waist :) :cheese: Thanks LHC!

Happy anniversary! :) It sounds like you have learned a lot about what works for YOU, which is truly the most important thing I have taken away from lurking and now being a part of LHC...hair truly is very individual!

Thanks Guys!
I'm pretty strict on when I can "call this (BSL, WAIST)", so perhaps I could be called BSL to begin with! I have been growing from past SL since 2007 so this is encouraging news to me! I am a slow grower...hence my siggy.
Thanks for the nice compliments :blossom:
