Hey everyone, wow it sounds like everyone is progressing nicely. As for me I think im getting a bit fed up. It’s such a long process and being so careful to take such good care of my hair and not seeing results fast enough is tiring. How do you all keep motivated???

keep on reading this site..muhahaha only joking I don't do anything special really to my hair so it's hard to unmotivate! I think most people just get in to the habit.

I agree, keep yourself busy  ... and a hair board is the perfect way to do it!

And taking progress pictures instead of measuring, that helps me too because it's easier to say "whoa, it looks longer" than "oh gee, I only grew a 1/4 inch"

Anais, your new bun picture is beautiful! I agree, photographs are more inspirational for me than measuring. So I finally took another photo. I will try to put the old and the new next to each other here so you can see the difference (sorry for the poor image quality! I don't have a good camera yet- still using my cell phone...)

Uh... my hair's natural color is like Anais' ... but it's dyed blonde so I see
my growth- from the top! Seems to grow really fast- which is a bit
bizarre considering all the stress and my age. I think its probably
perception, life seems to be going really fast these days too.

How do you folks measure?
What does "Hair Type: 2a,m,ii " mean?

I bet it's in a faq somewhere that I haven't read, and should have...

This is really fun, I have always been a hair freak, but I didn't realize I
could have so much fun on a board about hair!

Oh and- I get my hair trimmed twice a year, but my bangs are another
story. I do have a problem with the daily workouts and sweat, its not oily
but my scalp goes crazy if it doesnt get washed every 3 days.

I'm using juri's paw print idea here, thanks!

Most people measure from their front hair line so as to have a constant reference point. The hair type thing is classifying your hair by Fias classification system which is here

Welcome to the board!

ps. Mods, why can't we cut and paste in our message body is REALLY REALLY ANNOYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

works fine to me  LOL

Sorry LadyFrog, I couldn't resist!  If you want to put in a link,
just highlight the link text, for example, this word,
click on the Earth icon (fourth from right),
and paste in your URL. HTH

Here is Fia's new Visual hairtyping page. She's got the menu up top, which leads to entire galleries of real pictures from real people who fit the classifications.

Faery blessings

I've tried that before but it doesn't seem to work for me.
