My hair growth journey began officially in October, 2007. I decided to take charge of my own hair growth and not leave it totally in the hands of my stylist. I will continue to use her but not quite so often anymore. I am having so much fun taking care of my own hair. I will watch, update and post up my hair's progress quarterly. I need to keep track of the length and the thickness. I need healthy thickness more than anything right now though and that will be my main focus, hence adding henna and ayurveda to my regimen. My ends are a little thin here and I will be trimming them off slowly until I get them where and how I want them to look, ie, thick and healthy and long.
