All About Hair: Length Check Time!




Blow dried and flat ironed
Okay, so as you know, I choose to not relax my hair and I rarely straighten it.  A majority of the time, I wear it in braids or twists, simply because I don't have the patience it requires to do my hair on a daily basis.  Every now and again I'll take it down and straighten it to trim my ends(if needed) and see how my growth is progressing.  My goal is grow it a tad bit past BSL (bra strap length).  I'm getting there slowly but surely!

I achieved the length it's at now by lots of protective styling and moisture, moisture and more moisture! Although I've been natural for about 10 years now, I wasn't always taking good care of my hair.  I recently started taking better care of my hair and as a result, it is now growing!  No secret miracle tonic, just the products I like to use and using them on a regular basis to maintain the moisture in my hair and lots of protective styles to keep from messing with it.

If you're on a hair health and growth journey, I'd love to see your photos and hear what you're doing to maintain your hair's health!!

    Love it! Your hair looks gorgeous. I always tell people there's no magic elixir to make hair grow: just take care of it consistently and you'll be good!

    Thank you love! Exactly! I know people want to believe that there's one, but there really isn't...you said it perfectly..."take care of it consistently" I couldn't have said it better!

    Your hair looks great...Protective styles and maintaining the moisture of hair is key in retaining healthy hair...Our hair can grow....some just have trouble maintaining it and have not educated themselves enough to know how to do this properly..luckily... there are blogs like yours to inspire people to take better care of their hair...

    Thank you Modisch! You hit the hammer on the head! Education about our hair is what's really needed, because as you stated, our hair grows just like everyone else...we just have to give ours a little more care :)

    Thanks for stopping by girlie!!
