Okay, since I didn't take any June pics, I figured I better get on the ball. LOL  Here is a pic on wash day.  I put it in a bun a few hours ago so it's a little wild.
 

Here is the bun I had it in.  I usually wear this bun all the time.  Pretty soon, it won't work as well because my hair is growing which is okay with me.

I hope to be near waist by Christmas.  I don't know if I'll make it but time will tell.

Wow Addy I love the new june pics of ur hair. The length is longer and it looks great. I love the pics in the sun as well and the french braid with the sticks. I cant wait until mine is long. If my long hair looks half as good as urs ill be happy :) ANd the ponytail shot is awesome. ur hair looks nice and thick which is always a plus. What all styles shoud I try as a guy with braids and ponytails and buns and that?

Wow! When you said you started a journal, you weren't kidding! Its grown a lot and what's more, it looks really healthy and thick. I wish my hair was that thick! Keep up the good work and stay strong on no colour. Loved the rope braids!

Thank you 30!  LOL 
 
I had major tangles yesterday from wearing my hair through the back hole of my fav Steelers hat.  I was riding in the car a good bit with the windows down though so that's the reason.  I didn't even bother coming it out and will CO today before work! 
 
Gotta go take ds to summer school and then to work!

Addy, I'm so glad you started a journal! I've enjoyed watching your progress. Your hair really grows fast! I can't believe the difference in this last month. Oh, and I love your rope braid. I wish I could do that!

Pburgh,
Of course I love the Steelers!  I was so determined to go to a Super Bowl party that had the flu run through the house that I went anyways and got the flu two days later!  That win was well worth it! Clap   Yes, I wear my hair pulled through the back of the cap.  I always do when I wear a ball cap!  For me personally, it looks stupid if I don't!
 
paper,
Thank you for the compliments!  I think my hair grows fast but not fast enough for me!  haha!  It could always grow faster! Tongue 
 
Today, I just wore a low ponytail and CO'ed.

I was looking at my hemline this morning and guess what?!!!!!!!  I am finally at BSL!  OMG, I couldn't believe my eyes this morning!  I was so freaking excited!  It not only touches my bra strap, it goes past it a lil bit!  Another month and I'll be way past it!  I can't tell you how happy I am!   It's been two long years in Aug since my hair has been this long!  I am finally back to where I was before getting hacked to death!
 
I should measure my hair though.  My original goal was 30"...  I betcha I'm sneaking up on it!  I'll update a lil later on that.   I hope to be waist by Dec 31st 2009!   
 
I wore my hair in a french braid today since I was going to be cleaning at work.  I didn't even bother to wet it down.  I just braided and oiled the ends with EVOO.  My hair loves it! Heart

So I just measured and I was a solid 25".  I haven't been taking any vitamins or doing MN as of late.   I've been growing a 1/2" a month for the last few months.  I am going to start the MN again without using vitamins to see where I go with it.  I have a few tubes and will use them up and report back when finished.  Hopefully, I'll gain more length and if I don't, I'll give up MN forever and go back to vitamins. 
 
I did a treatment tonight so I'll measure in two weeks and see what I have if I remember.  bike2  <---  That smilie is pretty cool!
