aw leia, drool drooln droolin' here. mid-butt is actually my new goal (that would be around 42 inches for me). i've seen too many past-butt haired people at a NIN gig and just in the streets of paris and to be honest i find it just too weird to go that long. for some reason the only people i saw who fit really well with it is those indian child women with braids to their knees. 8)

The color and texture are wonderful as always. How tall are you? I think we were at similar length until a few months ago. I hope that my hair starts to grow a bit faster again soon. These months of just millimeter growth are depressing.

Hi again everyone!

I don't really have any "hair secrets!" My first introduction to how to grow long hair was here at this very board! What I do that might be out of the ordinary is I try to do as much as I can naturally. For example, I don't take any hair vitamins, and I am a vegetarian, plus I try not to eat food with preservatives or anything. I like to know exactly what is going in my food, and I try to be a healthy eater. Remember that overall health attributes to hair growth as well!

My routine: I wash once a week. Every other week I do a herbal wash (http://www.network54.com/Forum/message?forumid=278542&messageid=1079093499) with Indian herbal powders. Before the wash I sometimes use bhringraj oil on my length.

The weeks when I don't do a herbal wash, I do a deep conditioning. Recently I have been experimenting with doing this all-natural too. I use kitchen products, like eggs, honey, olive oil, yogurt, etc. Most of the time I add a tiny bit of shea butter too. My hair is prone to getting over-conditioned really easily, so I have to be careful about deep conditioning.

As a leave-in, I put shea butter on my ends about 3-4 nights a week. I put the tiniest amount on the bottom of my braid. I don't use brushes - I have a Sierra Legacy wooden comb. I don't blow dry or color my hair.

That's all I can think of as far as my routine! If you want to check out my journal, feel free: www.network54.com/forum/278542

I have been growing my hair out since January 2003. It was 18" then, and was 39" at my last measure-in. I am around 5'4" or 5'5".

I hope that answers all of your questions! And thank you so much for the compliments! Grin
