Soooo... It has been just over two years since my last relaxer and currently I only have 5 inches of healthy hair (healthy-ish; I still have some heat damaged ends to grow out)
I seriously have to do better... I should be growing that length within one year! *smh*
So here is what I'm going to do to achieve longer, HEALTHY (health being the most important thing) hair:
- One month in: One month out. For one month I will have my hair out and the following month I will have to put my hair in a protective style. My protective style of choice is Kinky Twist. I love them because I'm able to moisturise and the my natural hair blends in with it.
- Continue to take my Cod Liver Oil plus A-Z Mulitvitamins . It's one capsule a day and it contains a small amount of biotin. Biotin is well known for helping with growing hair and nails fasters and stronger.
- Maintain a healthy diet and exercise regularly - . I also need to be getting 20 minute of cardio workout per day, doctors have proved that this can help release hormones to make you feel better if you have been down in the dumps or stressed =)
- Need to drink at least two liters of water a day - This will come with time, I'm finding it hard to drink just a litre a day.
- To be consistent with my hair routine.
- Limit wash-and-goes to emergencies [i.e when nothing else is working with style hair. haha! =P ], because I get loads of knots from this hair style, plus the shrinkage get annoying!
I haven't been documenting my progress before now but I will be giving you updates monthly.
Starting from now, 5th of March =)

The kinky twist is absolutely gorge it looks really good hun. I drink 2 litres of water a day, It helps if you rink small amounts frequently and pretty much drink nothing else lol, so no cups of tea and no juice means you'll be able to get more water down :)

DeleteThanks for the tip!
I started drinking more water as a new years resolution, and I find that I actually crave for water these days! What has helped me this far is filling up a 1 litre bottle to sort of motivate me to finish at least one litre a day! =)
I'll be sure to check out your blog!
