Trust me: your hair is growing!

I'm doing this post so that those that think their hair isn't growing: TRUST ME IT IS! I didn't even realize how much more growth I had than a month ago.

In my routine I had a few changes: I prepood with castor and occasionally oiled my scalp with it. I started using coconut oil and dc'ing every week. So you can attribute my growth to the castor or whatever; I'm just happy it's healthy enough to grow!

So here's a pic from my fade till now.

And here's a pic I thought was funny:

can part it & get a comb stuck. Lol
Side view:



I'm so loving this journey and looking at comparison pics every month. Here's so little tips for if you think you hair isn't growing:

1. Take pictures- not everyday but maybe bi-weekly or monthly to compare.

2. Try a style you couldn't execute a few weeks ago; you may be shocked that now you can.

3. Measure your finger (my pointer is 2.5 inches) and use that as a measurement tool (for twa's of course) A dollar bill is 6 inches. A regular sheet a paper is 8x10 inches...(learn how to measure using anything..Lol)

4. Keep that scalp clean- a clean scalp is great for growth.

5. DON'T BE CONCERNED WITH LENGTH; BE CONCERNED ABOUT HEALTH. You want healthy hair & scalp because healthy hair & scalp will grow and stay put.

Happy Growing day!
