Yays, 20something hours untill I can say I have been growing my hair for a year! I just couldn't wait, hehe.
I have learned so much from all of you! I have learned about putting coconut oil on my hair, I've learned CWC and CO, a bunch of awesome updos, hairtoys, and much much more! I'm so grateful that I took Torrins advice and visited LHC a year ago!
My routine is: wash once, sometimes twice a week with CO, sometimes CWC when I feel like my hair is extra iffy. I have tried not brushing, I've tried wide toothed combs, but I didn't really love it at all. So 2 months ago I ordered a Tangle teezer, and I love that thing, I can still keep my waves and my hair is nice and detangled. I am half cone free, half cone-user, same with the sulfates, it depends on the weather and my circumstances. I think my hair likes both. I'm sometimes heat-treating my bangs and the area around them, but rarely the rest of the hair. My hair likes CG method but I'm not fond of gels because they make my hair crunchy, so I'm trying to figure that one out. Oh, and ACV-rinces every once in a while. Also I spray my scalp twice a day with rooibos tea, and drinking 2+ cups a day. It seems to work, when looking at my measurements.
That's all I can think of for my routine for now. I am having problem maintaining my waves as the day(s) goes by, and I hate my canopy that is stick straight mostly. I love sticks, forks, and Ficcare Maximas, and I'm more aware what I do to my hair now. I started at bsl or a bit above, I'm actually not really sure, and in April I cut my inbetweenwaistandhip-hair to a bit beyond APL to get rid of the gross layered cut I had gotten a month before joining LHC. So now I'm growing my notsolayered hair again, first and foremost I wanna get back to waist, but I definetly want longer, been thinking about hip, but knowing me it is too short when I get there, so maybe classic? We'll see.
Now on to the part I know you've waited for ;)

61 cms! I was somewhere around 64-65 when I joined, so in 3-4 cms it looks like I can call myself BSL, even though it looks much further to me, haha.
Thank you LHC for everything I've learned from you wonderful people!!
