She got about 5 more posts before its time to give up the goods on that growth.
What vitamins, creams, shake, oil, butter, etc have you been using since june?
Ya'll are some ruthless mofos.
Regardless of whether or not the pictures are comparable (which I can admit, the first picture has some texture to the hair as opposed to the updated progress picture), she DID make progress.
Her hair GREW, period. There are some of us who can barely get a couple of inches in in a year's time, so give her props for at least moving past her setback and seeing good growth and retention.
Congratulations OP. I'm sorry that it couldn't be more joyous for you.
Girl, not me, I'mma say what I want. If a member posts pics here, that means feedback is expected. Where are the rules that say we all have to nod our heads in agreement like a bunch of sheep. As long as no one is being disrespectful, we don't all have to agree or believe a poster.
Funny because one of the people in this thread hollering about "hate" has proven herself to be a hater to me, time and time again, in other threads regarding other people though (not me). But I won't even go there. It's a recession and I'm not tryn to lose my 6.50.
. Again people like that are statistical anomalies as are people whose hair only grows 1/8" a month 
. While I understand the --> 
and 
erplexed over her progress pics .... I'm just saying that it's still possibleI thought I was done commenting until I read this..You know, being that I am 5'6, this made me literally get up, take my measurement from shoulder to knee and made my friend do it as well. She's 5'4. Being that she is 5'5 we both assumed that from shoulder to knee its probably anywhere from 27 inches to 32 inches.
So if I have my math calculations right..
Your friend was gaining anywhere between 3.3 inches a month & 4 inches a month. Your story might be true & all but, it just seems so outrageous it makes me
I mean you have to figure. When people start busting out with claims that basically say "hey i gain 3 inches or more a month." you have to figure its going to make anyone. To me its like someone saying "Yo, I sat and I ran at the same time!".. I mean its such a deviance from the norm, I think its only natural for people to be skeptical. I mean the OP even said she was shocked at the amount of growth that she received, so I mean if shes shocked you know WE are shocked. But it don't matter really. Her hair is like damn near MBL after 3 months, and my nape still b.a.l.d.h.e.a.d.e.d so she wins.
I didn't believe it until I saw it myself either, but from looking at pics from band camp until the end of of the school year she actually had that much growth. But to be completely honest, she's the only person I've ever encountered whose hair grew that fast, caucasian, black, asian, martian
Well I guess we all learn something new everyday. That is amazing though. And you are making a great point. 1/8 an inch is very uncommon so why cannot their be ladies who grow ridiculously fast?

Can we take it back to old school when ur parents (hopefully they did) told u "if u don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all!?" 
erplexed
congrats on getting some of ur length back. My cousin did the same thing to me and I was 
Hair will always grow back though, so I couldn't go off too bad. I ended up cutting it later myself to starts locs. 
Why is it automatically that people are haters? And I wasn't being smart in my above question in case you were wondering, I honestly can't see where her bra strap is...
How is that hurtful?
Wow, I'm really ashamed by the way some people are acting on this post.
Even if her hair wasn't blow dried, she's relaxed so she's not gonna have much shrinkage in the first pic. If u look at the waves in her hair they ARE consistent with a bun. Especially if u wear that often to HIDE the bad cut. Those waves would barely account for an extra 1/4inch of length.
She also isn't MBL in the second pic. She's obviously relaxing and leaning her head back, as u can tell by the bend on the left side of her hair. So imagine if she straightened up, her length would appear shorter which would probably put her between APL and BSL.
Y'all are doin WAAAAAY too much to question this woman's growth.
mrsmeredith,
Good luck on making ur goals!
GREAT progress, i do still want to see more pics in another 3 months though, by then you should be right back to where you started!
Its one thing to not believe and respectfully state your opinion, and its another to post this on another forum to cause futher embarrasment to the op. Talk about throwin salt in the wound
OP.
