I say, let your hair recover for a year before ever straightening again and do it as an occasional thing, like once or twice a year. You can also do roller sets for a straighter look.

I have rollers but not enough (anymore, my hair is too long now for the ones I have), if I need straight-ish hair I just wrap it around my head after I wash it and secure it with silver clips. I stopped doing that a couple of weeks ago because I'm trying to break the habit of brushing my hair when wet because I lose a lot of hair/also because breakage; I actually succeeded with not brushing my hair until dry the other day but when I brushed it I lost the same amount of hair I would have if I brushed it wet :shrug: I'm going to try again tomorrow...

I'm just brushing APL with my wet hair! And I had a record 3cm of growth this month so I should meet my goal of APL by the end of December 2016! :)

That is awesome miss P! I also think that I will reach APL stretched by the end of the year. :)

Taking supplements is a great idea. Have you tried silica? When I was taking Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth, which is primarily made up of silica, my hair grew soooo fast.

It's exciting that so many of us are this close!

It will be a while before I can say I'm anywhere near APL. I'll probably maintain at and just above APL for a while as I grow my natural hair out. No guarantees though, life's too busy to trim. :lol:

At December 17th I will straighten my hair for my aunt's wedding and I think I may be at APL there, so I'll take a picture to make sure of it that day. I think that on me APL is at 53 cm, and last time I measured after my inversion method (a few weeks ago) I was at 52cm so I am really close and I think I'll be there by then.

Re: Calling all who are growing shoulder to APL!

Looks like I'm still 3-4 months away from APL. I'm extremely curious what the length is straightened, BUT! I haven't touched my flat iron in almost 2 months. I must stick to it. Next September though I will have no choice as I am in another wedding. This time my hair will be down. Booo.
