Here is from several years ago:

Here is last September, after cut/dye and before CG:

And here is now:

I think I'm currently about BSL, or almost, in the very back; I get it trimmed every 10-12 weeks to help keep my layers/shape looking good while I'm growing it out. My goal is for the longest length to be between MBL and WL, so that from the front I still have a lot of longer layers.
Your hair is beautiful! And so are you! Welcome to the challenge

I'm so glad post partum shedding doesn't seem to be affecting me. I need to take a pic but I think I'm getting a lil closer to waist length!

I'm not very close, but my hair is certainly growing. I'll post a pic soon, hopefully. My hair is pretty long straight, though. Ugh, I wish my hair would have such a growth spurt like when I was in 5th grade lol.

Bleuyteuy, thank you for your post about baggying! It inspired me to start it!

I did a little bit of research on baggying, and people say it is like a greenhouse effect, and will help with hair growth. I am so excited to see the results! I put in some Suave Naturals Strawberry conditioner and oil, then put my hair in three plastic shower caps (my hair is too thick and long for just one) and tied on my satin scarf to trap in some heat. Yay!

Curly hair is about CB length. It's been really hot and humid where I live so I'll post a straight hair update later.

My hair is a combination of textures. The bottom half is tight waves with coils on the ends, what I consider 3c. The top has a looser wave with coils on the ends closer to a 3b

Well its gorgeous. Do you color your hair or do some kind of rinse?

Thank you ma'am lol. Your hair always look great too. Your current curl pattern has me wanting to try that keratin treatment. Your hair doesn't look damaged at all its not breaking off or anything. It just loosened up your curl pattern a bit (which was what it was supposed to do). Based on your results I would recommend it to any one that wanted to try one.
