Re: Calling all who are growing shoulder to APL!
I think I am going to start my week out with an SMT tomorrow. At least that is the plan, let's see what happens to screw it up. :P
Re: Calling all who are growing shoulder to APL!
There's always a Treatment Tuesday to cover up if you screwed it up :-)
Enjoy your SMT tomorrow!!!
Re: Calling all who are growing shoulder to APL!
My hair seems to be growing so fast! I can't wait to hit APL! :D
My fiance has turned into quite the enabler. He just ordered me these, and finally came to terms with the fact that I'm growing my hair out. I'm so excited :D

They're pretty! An congrats on you growth rate - do you share? :D
I'm hoping for APL by Christmas, but I don't know if it will happen...
And oh no (said in a Phoebe-like way) - I just realized that I can't make SMT's; I haven't got a microwave here!

I just started using Rooibos tea rinses, and I've been oiling my scalp everyday in the shower. My shampoo is about 50% mixed oils.
I've never done an SMT :o but I imagine you could hit the mixture with a *gasp* hair dryer for a few minutes to heat it up, on or off your head. :)

I have to try these things! Thank you!
A hairdryer, of course!!! THANK YOU :D Why didn't I think of that? I brought it here even though I never use it, but now the poor thing will get a life.
Re: Calling all who are growing shoulder to APL!
I think you only need to microwave the mixture to stop the honey from lightening your hair... So if you don't mind it, you can just mix it and put it on your hair...
I'm not sure if a blowdryer has enough power to stop the peroxide from working without heating the SMT too much.
Bunnysaur, those are gorgeous hairsticks!!!!

You need to heat the honey until it bubbles to get rid of the peroxide - atleast the hairdryer I have doesn't get that hot. If you have a kettle or a frying pan, you could try putting the honey in a mug and then place the mug in the frying pan/kettle, then fill the kettle with water and boil it for a while until the honey is hot enough.
How did it go with the CO-not-working-thing, AndreaPetrea, btw? Have you managed to find a suitable conditioner yet?
Re: Calling all who are growing shoulder to APL!
We're in the middle of moving, so I forgot to take my Saturday-night progress pic. Here is one from tonight. I found out one reason it looks so fuzzy is my hair is actually wavy and I brush it as straight as possible for length pics.

I've been wondering what was wrong. I've not been able to upload a picture at all this week. It says "upload successful" but then it tells me "invalid path"...I know my size and all is within the parameters.
