APL BY YEARS END...(dec2010)

[chasturner84]

I'm in. I have about an inch til the back reaches but the sides will take forever.

I'm in the same boat...ugh!

 

[VirtuousBeauty]

Anyone wearing wigs/half-wigs up to the reveal?

 

[4evershika]

^^^I'm not wearing half-wigs exclusively but I'm doing half and half (half-wigs and buns)

 

[newbeginnings2010]

I'm in! I've been joining a lot of challenges lately...

 

[NikkiQ]

^^^ you and me both. I know there are PJs but are there CJs aka challenge junkies??

 

[Honey Bee]

I'm in, I just have to stop giving in to the urge to trim (until I get to APL, that is). It's just, the ends look so thin now that I texlax.

This was taken in May.


I think I have maybe an inch or two to go. Then, the plan is to keep it there until I grow out all the relaxed parts.

 

[Truth]

count me in.. of course truth has yet another set back..so i'm imagining after this trim .. i'll be still somewhere between SL and APL..more so closer to SL then APL like I am now..

I'm good. Focused as ever. Got an install done Saturday which I plan on keeping for 3-4 months. I had about 3" of NG when I went into it so hopefully I keep the trend going and get another 3" while in this PS. I'll do a length check when I take it out so hopefully I'll be pretty close.

Ended up giving myself an impromptu trim last week. I plan on having my brother hide my scissors till December lol

 

[katblack]

I have to put up my photos of my hair, I may even straighten my hair. I will not renew my subscription and my subscription end on the 10th of October, *tear* so I will have photos up by then.

This is about a month old I think, but here's my progress:

 

[nissi]

I think I made it, let me know ladies! HHG!

 

[VirtuousBeauty]

nissi it looks like you might have. It's kind of hard to tell

 

[NikkiQ]

I know I'm not gonna make it, but I'm still hanging in there lol.

 

[nissi]

nissi it looks like you might have. It's kind of hard to tell

LOL! i know, looks like barely! I will post again the end of the year when it's more decisive! And with a light colored shirt!

How are you ladies doing? 9 weeks left!

 

[VirtuousBeauty]

Ok so It's not exactly December, but it's the day before so close enough. Here ya go ladies.

Relaxed a section of my hair Saturday since it was underprocessed and took the pics then.

Here is the first pic my brother took

I combed my hair to try to remove the slight part I saw. Didn't reach APL, but I didn't expect to do it by December anyway. Just gave me a goal

I was tired of the uneven hair, and noticed that my hair is alot thinner on the left side so I had my brother cut it. So this is what I'm ending off with. It's still a little thinner on the left side, but since my hair is even now I don't really consider it important.

Oh Yea no consistent reggie. I slacked off tremendously at one point and my hair ended up drier than the sahara. Had to deep condition a bunch and get back on to moisturizing and sealing daily to get it back to a decent level.
