i went to the hairdressers and had a trim! my hair is shorter

it was what i would class UBL but it is back to shoulder again now! The hairdresser was great though! and to be honest i needed the rest of those damaged ends off! im still a little sad but it had to be done and my hair looks much better now! i have changed my parting to the other side and i like it

When I look at my hair from the back, I'm *almost* at BSL... About another inch to go (hopefully by late June\mid July). But when I pull my hair to the front, it falls just an inch past my collar bone! It's very frustrating. I'm assuming you measure your hair based on where it falls on your back, correct?

Between May 2nd and May 12th, my hair grew .3 inches! (That's pretty good growth for me). I think the vitamins and 'good treatment' is finally starting to kick in!

gwen, don't you mean apl?

With apl it greatly depends on what people do with their hands. If they are just limp down or propped somewhere.

Jemoiselle's Twist Cut Tutorial (WAY DORKY WARNING!)

You are so cute! And your hair looks so healthy! Thanks for the video, I've heard about the twist cut before and was doing pretty much what you were showing, but it still felt weird because I wasn't completely sure that i was doing it right and I didn't stick with it. But now I'll definitely keep going with this kind of trim, seeing your results! I have a ton of layers to grow out! Thanks again!

Jemoiselle, I just had a look at your vid too. Your hair looks great, so sleek and shiny. I'm curious to give this twist cut a go. Thanks for posting

I have made my appointment for my last trim on the 28th May

my hair will then be free of heat damage and I can officially start my no trimming for a year challenge. I'm so excited! I'm also loving the low maintance of not heat styling my hair anymore and how time consuming it was to make it look nice when all the time I was just damaging it more.

I can't wait to see how much growth I gain from no heat styling and trimming. Hopefully enough to push me to APL by the end of the year.

Yoohoo! Where is everyone? This thread is slow these days.

I've been bummed because it's gonna be FOREVER until my hair is APL. I think I'm looking at September at the earliest. If I'm lucky. I'm hoping to be on the APL to BSL thread come January 2012. Do you gals and guys thinks that's possible?
