Hey,
I was just wondering: what is considered BSL? Is it just above, but touching the bra, hair covering the clasp of the bra, or below the bra line. I think I am there, but I want the "official" ruling. Thanks so much!
By the way, my hair is ALL NATURAL, no chemicals! So exciting!
I L  VE this site!-------------  SEE YA LATER

Wow congrats on your growth....I think that most ppl consider themselves BSL when it is touching the top of the bra-strap.  ------------- http://public.fotki.com/blackhoney112/hair_album/101505_.html - Hair album pw:Romeo |

Thanks blackhoney112. I think that I am going to give myself a good trim now. A dusting of my ends won't help. I want health and length for my tresses. I hate split ends!  ------------- SEE YA LATER

Congrats on your growth! I would say the top of the bra stap. I've seen it defined as different lengths though.
So, tell us what you did to get to that length. ------------- Natural BC May 9, 2004 |

| I would say below the bra strap. Then there's no denying that you've reached BSL. |

Sorry it took me a while to reply, I have been moving. I believe that the best to gain length is to REALLY know your hair, and what it responses to. I love going to different hair sites, getting ideas of new products to try. I am the ultimate product junkie!! I have found that what works for most, doesn't seem to work for me. I know after using a product once or twice, if I will continue to use it. I also belive that your genes have something to do with your hair growth. These are products that I find really work for me thus far: ACV washes (I hardly ever use shampoo)
Profectiv Mega Growth
Cantu Shea butter leave in conditioning repair cream (didn't like their shampoo, conditioners or the other products that come in the bottle)
SuLu Max GRO (this has been the product to get me over the hump; FABULOUS stuff)
Hawaiian Silky 14-1
I also take hair vitamins including a B vitamin, biotin, MSM, Phoytophanere and a Omega 3-6-9 vitamin
Thanks girls for the response. I hope that something I use, works for you on your way to the hair of your dreams!!!  ------------- SEE YA LATER
