So despite what my photos on Instagram indicate, because I choose to wear my hair in super curly styles, my hair has grown. To the point that now my twist outs (done without any rods) hang on my shoulders. This is great, however at this point wearing my hair out could lead to breakage as it rests on the shoulders of sweaters and jackets. I really want to see my hair get over this little hump. Furthermore, having colored my hair and seeing my roots grow out but my hair not getting as long as it should I want to really make sure I'm retaining all the length that I can. I actually have 4 colors in my head right now, but this will be key in determining how much my hair is growing and how much I'm retaining. My roots will show the rate at which my hair is growing. The blonde tips, should they "go away" which I am praying they do not, will show me how much length I'm retaining. At no other point in my natural hair journey has length been my focus. The length my hair is now, if it never got any longer that would be ok. In fact, I have lots of hair plans in my future including a second big chop and have contemplated pics. I am honestly just curious to see how long my hair could actually grow. I have never really had "long growing" hair, so it will be interesting to see how that goes. There will be 3 phases to my growth challenge but the first is bunning. To keep this post short (well shorter lol), I will explain why in a future post, but i'd like you all to join me. The challenge isn't just about growth but also low manipulation protective styling. Whatever your goals are, this can benefit you. If you are interested comment below. I'll post other info and rules in the coming days.
