But you have been definitely growing some hair this year! Keep it up!; 3/18/12, 6:15 PM

LaQT/ Ty said...: @ Shika. Thanks, I am really trying within reason to get to BSL this year. I understand what you mean, I prefer the U-shape, but hubby likes the V.

@Blessed Tresses- I am working on a "no setback" year. I'm up for a trim in June so maybe I'll keep the V-shape.

I was so shocked that I made APL. This is normally the length where I snip it back to SL. I sure hope I don't have a trimming disaster. I whipped my hair so much I ended up with a cramp, like those old Sunsilk commercials. Enough whipping, I will enjoy this week then get back to p-styling.; 3/18/12, 9:31 PM

LaQT/ Ty said...: Thanks, Ms.D. My cut was in June, looks like my hair may be even longer in June than it was when I cut it last year. I love it. I'm trying not to get too excited. I'm putting it up tomorrow. I've enjoyed it enough for now.; 3/20/12, 9:13 PM
LaQT/ Ty said...: Thanks, SpecialK. It looks like I've found my regimen that I'm going to stick with. My hair really seems to be thriving.; 3/20/12, 9:14 PM
