I went natural in March/April 2011. I don't remember the exact date. My hair had broken off at the back so I had about 1 inch of hair on two-thirds of my head to begin with and a couple of inches at the front.
At the time, my hair was so badly damaged that I couldn't care less about hair growth - I just wanted it to get healthier. Looking back on it I think ignoring hair growth and focusing on health is the best strategy one can go for because my hair has been growing and any growth I get comes as a happy surprise. If you expect nothing, everything and anything you get will be a positive. I also don't do length checks. I have done one before but I don't think it's that important. You will know if your hair is growing depending on where it reaches. Anyhow, fast forward 2 years and and 3 months to July 2013 and this is where my hair is at. I'm happy with this length to be honest. If I get more, great; if I don't, it's about health first anyway so it doesn't matter.

AMAZING. Uber drool. Really beautiful. I'm inspired
I did my big chop 2 years ago, but I did perm the front part of my hair for a weave a did a year ago but regretted it so hard and haven't done it since, so I'm transitioning in the front. But my hair is growing good still, just wanted to say that I read your emails and tips and I have taken on a few of your routines like the water tips and using oils and it has worked for my hair. I cut my hair myself and a lot of people have already gave me complements about my hair so I can't wait to see what it looks like in 4 years time ! Comments are closed.
