Hair update

I haven't done an update on my hair in a while and I am proud to say that I am finally BSL (bra strap length). This is the longest my hair has ever been (cue happy dance).

Well, I am just touching the top of my bra but I am still claiming it :), I like to revel in all victories even the small ones. I am right on track to make it to MBL by Christmas.

I am only about 4 inches away from my ultimate goal of waist length, so psyched. Once I get there, I plan to trim an inch or so every relaxer until I have healthy beautiful even looking ends. As I near the 1 year anniversary of my hair journey, I am really pleased with my progress and will definitely continue to take good care of my hair.

You obviously want to see the picture :). This was taken in early May right after my relaxer.
I am actually 5 weeks post right now. I meant to write this post a month ago. Life gets busy I guess. I plan to do a one year anniversary post next month after I relax. I am hoping to be full BSL, we'll see.

    Your hair looks great. Care to share your regimen? Also, how are you planning to take care of your hair right before and after the baby arrives? I don't like braids and I am at a loss for what to do.
    Thankfully, I have some time before delivery but any tips you can offer will be most appreciated.

    I can't even believe waist length is even an option for me. Almost there. I never imagined that my hair could get so long. Your hair is gorgeous. It looks so healthy. You are doing an awesome job.
