Thanks everyone! I'm already feeling loads better (finally), and I'm hoping that I'm on the mend! My kidlet seems to be right behind me, as well. Still a little icky, but mostly better!
Estrid I'll missssss yoouuuu! :P But I think I'll see ya in like February in APL to BSL lol. And like, everywhere else.
That absolutely could be the problem. Hair and nails are a bit superfluous when it comes to stuff your body makes. If you're not getting enough nutrients for everything else that's actually important, you're not gonna have a lot of growth in the areas of "unimportance".Quote:

The safest way to go about it would be to see a doctor and consider getting some blood tests done to know exactly what you're dealing with. Keep in mind that these deficiencies take a while to get resolved, so you'll have to be patient about it.Quote:

Looks like it's already at CBL to me:happydance: (or maybe I should wait a bit more?...) Sorry for my not so clean hair, though...
ETA: I've brushed it properly and it looks solidly CBL, so hooray! :)
That looks like CBL to me victorian girl! Congrats!

Dutch braid, my favorite braid, it holds so much better than French or rope on my hair.
Congrats! :joy:Quote:

I'm sorry I just can't stop stalking your hair, so thick and shiny! :D. The braid looks beautiful!Quote:

Better picture with actual light. I think the vinegar rinse I did yesterday really worked, hair feels nice and looks shiny in my braid. Sorry for the spam guys!
Hi, everyone! :waving:
I'm joining this thred after growing out a chin-legnth bob to shoulder legnth over the past 8 months or so. I'm happy to hit this mini-milstone and eager to learn what protective styles are possible at this point. I've had long hair before (waist legnth with layers) but that was years ago, and I've forgotten a lot of my old tricks :p At this point I can do a fench braid and a bun with the help of a donut-thing.
I WCC every other day, and use Shea Moisture products, Nightblooming's Panacea, and/or some coney serum on the legnth. I haven't touched a hot styling appliance in a year, detangle with a seamless comb, and sleep on a satin pillowcase (thanks, LHC!)
I hope to get to APL by the end of 2018, but in the meantime I'm just greateful to be out of the neck-legnth phase.
Looking forward to growing with you.
