Have you tried doing pre-poo treatments? They can help fighting the dryness, sounds like your hair needs lots of TLC

I personally recommend a homemade oil-in-serum treatment that I found on the hair blog a few years ago. You need to mix 10 ml water, 10 ml conditioner and 10 ml oil in a spray bottle and spray your hair thoroughly with it. Let it sit 1 hour before shampooing.
For me its a good time-saving alternative to overnight oiling and gives really good results.

OMG, it's grown so much in such little time. Didn't you cut it recently to APL?

And your hair looks very lovely.

I think you are MBL already. It is quite a confusing mark, but I think you can call it. Congratulations!

Thank you! I trimmed back at the end of May so actually quite a lot of time has passed since then.

@stray_mind that definitely looks like MBL to me! Love the texture and volume, so cool.

I usually prepoo with whatever mask I have that doesn't have enough slip for me to use after washing, and used to do preoil treatments... I have enough oils to try mixing water and conditioner to use up! Sounds much more slippery that way too.

For your torso, volume of hair and where it's at, I would consider this BSL/MBL.

Stray, looks like your longest hairs are at MBL!

Here's where I'm at today. I'm pretty happy with the growth, the second pic was taken on August 25th. In both pics, right hand fingertips are at the bottom of bra band and left hand is on the waist.
