My hair has been in a protective style for the past 3 weeks.
Here in NY the weather has still been cold and dry. My scalp was starting to
itch and I wanted to give my hair some TLC. I know my hair loves moisture, but
in these winter months my hair needs protein. I usually make my own
concoction and avoid over the counter products. Since I’ve had such a
busy weekend, I still needed to make a hair mask that will be fortifying and
moisturizing.
First I washed my Hair with Carol's Daughter Tui Shampoo. I like this shampoo because it leaves my hair feeling soft and not stripped of it's natural oils and sebum.
I used an entire packet of Palmer’s Coconut oil protein pack
and about ¼ cup of Beautiful textures Rapid repair moisture mask. I also added some coconut and avocado oil
along with some wild honey. I popped it in the microwave for 30 seconds and
mixed all together.
This actually gave my mixture gave my hair incredible slip.
I was very impressed. I sectioned my freshly washed hair in 6 sections and worked the mask in with my hands as I finger
detangled.
I twisted each section and placed under a plastic cap when I
was done. I ran around and did some errands, and squeezed in a work-out with this
mixture in my hair. I rinsed and stretched my hair with a cool blow drier.
My hair felt strong and had a great shine. I will defiantly
be trying a similar combo again. Here
are some Length Checks for you, it has almost been 3 years. I am so excited . I've reached APL!!!

Be happy and be patient, then the growth will come.
I have seemed to become busier and busier as the time passes. I wanted to update you guys with my hair growth progress. I have been wearing protective styles, moisturizing and low manipulation. My goal is to continue growing my hair until I achieve waist-length hair. I know it's possible, contrary to all the myths that "kinky" hair doesn't grow. 
Happy Journeys
