I can't believe how fast everyone's hair grows... wow.

And it's so shiny. 

tdouty - Careful, the hair companies might come after Jennifer to do their commercials and snatch her away...

Katja - that's really weird to see your hair all different lengths and colours...

Everybody here's so supportive and seeing all these pictures is kind of inspirational for someone who has the worst problem with split ends...they're getting taken care of next week and then I can start with not so dry nasty hair...

Thanks Dave!

Jennifer has a ton of split ends too.  They don't show up in pictures unless the macro setting would be used to really zoom in.  Her hair gets tangled all the time at the ends.  We did cut a bunch of the damage off, but there's still lots more there.  We figure she'll let it grow to the length she wants with as little damage as possible and then start whacking off the damage with trims as she keeps the length.  What you're experiencing, letmecount123, may be the same many of us experience (and nobody sees I might add) as hair is growing and trims are kept to a minimum.  Your hair really looks great, so I hope you aren't going to let somebody go crazy with scissors.

BTW, the hair companies are just pounding the door off the hinges all the time, but I scare them away by squirting them with my squeeze bottle of conditioner ... hahaha.

What everyone is saying about split ends is true.  You may not see them in the pictures, but we've all got 'em, myself included.  Don't feel bad, Holly!!

That's an amazing collection of pics, Sunsailing!  Your hair appears to be so thick! 

And thank you too, Juri, for your progress pics.  You've come a long way in just 2 years!

You are so right, Katja.  Split ends galore, here too.  S&D sessions are like a field day.  Everywhere I look, there are split ends.  My S&D process is complicated due to the extent of my hair's natural taper; I have to search 3+ feet of hair for splits.

Whoa, the thickness and shine and slickness.... oooooooh

Thanks for the positive comments. My hair does have a natural wave/curl. I just don't have time to let it completely dry every time I wash it, so I usually use a dryer after it air dries for about 45 minutes...that makes it straight. Every once in a while I help the curls.
