My Hair Journey So Far

So I decided my first blog would be like a timeline of my hair journey so far. So the summer before    my senior year of high school I decided to get highlights and a haircut (bad idea). It was pretty at first

but my hair was completely damaged which prompted me to do research on how to get healthier hair. This is my hair at the beginning of my hair journey July 27th 2011 completely thin and damaged

I joined two sights called K-I-S-S and Hairlista  after watching a youtuber by the name of UluvMegs and learned so much. In the next picture you can see my hair looking healthier. I made it to APL (Arm Pit Length)

I experienced my first set back in May 2012 after doing my first and only glue in my hair was greasy and there was breakage

I began to baby my hair and try to get it back to its health. This next pic was taken two months after while in Jamaica

So fast forward to the beginning of my freshman year of college. I made grazing BSL(Bra Strap Length)

I participated in a no cutting challenge and did a personal no heat challenge as well which lasted 6 months with one heat pass in between. Here is my first heat pass. I made it to BSL but my ends were not so good.

Here is my hair at the end of the challenge in March I made it to MBL(Mid Back Length) but again with the ends .

So more recently I decided to cut a few inches off my hair and I am now back to Grazing BSL in some parts and barely BSL in others. I will continue to slowly trim and even out my hair.

I wouldn't quite call this time a set back because my hair was in need of a trim and my motto is health before length. Happy Hair Growing =)
