Count me in as well. I'm going to be taking out these braids over the next few days and then I'll post a pic with hair measurements at that point. I'm going full protective style this summer by putting in my own kinky twists.

Alright! I'm back to post pics and info.
My starting picture:
My hair is about 4.75" long in the front. Not sure in the back and sides. It grows about half an inch a month so since this is a 3 month challenge that starts in July I'd say by then my hair will definitely be 5" long at least and I'd like to retain 1.5" of hair. Basically by the end of the challenge I'd like my bangs to be 7.5" long.
My regimen is this:
Sunday is wash/condition day. I wash with Dr. Bronner's Shikakai soap and then use either Herbal Essence Totally Twisted or Aussie Moist conditioner.
I alternate between deep conditioning and protein treatments every other week.
I twist my hair up for the week, wear a twist out on the weekends and do it all again on Sunday. I change up what I use for my twists weekly, sometimes I use Afroveda Totally Twisted Ginger Almond Butter, Darcy's Botanicals Avocado & Wild Plum Twisting Cream, Safi Hair Care Avocado Shea Butter. I always leave in some conditioner whether it be HETT or Aussie Moist.
Once a month I do a henna/indigo treatment.
I spritz daily with my homemade moisture spritz which is 3/4 aloe vera gel, 1/4 water and 10-20 drops of peppermint oil. I just added catnip to mix so we'll see how it goes, lol.
I moisturize during the week with various hair oils, milks, etc. and I baggy every night.
Lastly I take a multivitamin and 10 mg of Biotin a day.
It sounds like a lot but it's not I swear haha. I just read that back and was like OMG it sounds like I do so much to my hair. But it's really low maintenance. It's just a lot of products. I'm cutting back on that soon. I just have to use up what I already have. Anywhoo I'm excited about this challenge!life has no limitations, except the ones you make!

I'd like to join. I'll post pics and regimen on the day it OFFICIALLY starts so that everything can be precise. Hoping for just an additional inch...my hair seems to be growing slowly this year.
No siggie necessary :-)
