| Twistout from the summer. |
So, how was the 3-month challenge? I've taken down my box braids and detangled but haven't washed or done anything else with my hair yet. (I plan to straighten it this coming weekend and wear it in jumbo twists for the month of January.) Overall, the challenge went well! I retained all my growth with the box braid extensions.
Will there be a 3in6 Challenge in 2013? If you read my Hair Goals post, you probably gathered that there might not be one. I can say for certain that there won't be one in the first half of the year. However, I might start another one in July, depending on what I'm doing with my hair at that point. This coming year will be a completely different journey for my hair than previous years as a natural. I will be straightening more frequently (for ease and to enjoy my hair at its length). I may or may not protective style as much either (more so a mix of jumbo twists and braid-outs). My regimen is going to change drastically as well; I plan to follow something along the lines of this one I posted, with the addition of an overnight coconut oil pre-poo followed by comb detangling on dry hair prior to washing.
So, ladies ... How did the challenge go for you? Any progress or lessons learned? What are you doing with your hair in 2013?
MOTIVATION FOR THE YEAR:
Think positive. Plan well. Start small. Keep on going. Don't stay down. Dust yourself off. Move forward. Don't look back. :o)
HAPPY NEW YEAR, LADIES!!
