"Take Back Your Hair" Challenge: 2011 Edition
In 2009, many of you joined me in participating in the "Take Back Your Hair" Challenge. Great results were achieved in just three short months, as we saw either an improvement in the health of our hair, added length, or both. Well, I feel inspired to do the challenge again. In fact, I'm starting today. Will you join me?
The rules are the same, but if you need to refresh your memory, get the deets (written in pink) here: "Take Back Your Hair" Challenge.
P.S. If you wish to particpate, don't feel pressured to start today. Just be sure to track your official start and end date. You don't have to straighten your hair to check length if that's what you wish to achieve (thickness and or an improvement in health--no splits, breakage, etc.--may be your goal), as stretching out your curls will suffice.
Good luck divas!
XOXO,

Thank you for this! I journaled about the need to deal with my transitioning hair beyond braiding it up from month to month last week and this is the push I need to do it. I admit, I am apprehensive about doing it, but I'm going to give it a go. *shiver*
I'm with you! It was that challenge that helped inspire me to go au naturel, and now that I AM au naturel, I can't remember the last time I truly deep-conditioned my hair. woe to my hair is the wash & go lifestyle! tsk tsk...
I'm taking back my hair today!!! Thanks =]
Awesome! I'm in and starting today.
I'm in..I take take a starting pic this weekend..
I am so ready for this! Have been on an "all about my hair" trip for a few weeks now so this fits in just perfect. Starting today but can't upload pix till tomorrow.
I'm ready....haven't had a relaxer since November
I'm in! I am so ready..
I'll join! I wasnt able to participate last time around but this time I'm in! I been relaxer free since 10/09 and I'm excited. I'll try to post a pic this wknd.
Ok, I'm in. I am so hair challenged that it is ridiculous! I've moved to a new city and the stylist I had immediately chopped off all of my hair and i hate it, so there's no time like the present to start over. Not sure how to upload a photo but I'll figure it out.
I am in! This is going to be hard but I know I can do it!!
Where do we post our starting picture at?
Im so in... was gonna put in a protective style at the end of the month, but it was so cool to be a part of it during my transition. Now 1yr 3mos later can't wait to see what my hair will do!!!
Im in too...I still have a relaxer but decided to go natural but without the big chop...I am only 8 weeks post...but normally relax at 6 weeks...so im in!! Im ready to start my natural journey!!
I'm in! Maybe I do a weight loss challenge along with it!
I'm in.....I know I can yes I can...
I'm in! I really want my hair to grow I'm o excited about this!
I'm probably going to start making vids about my journey as well!
Thanks for coming up with this challenge.
I will be joining starting today. going to take my pic now. Thanks for this push. I flat ironed my hair last week and put in small twist last night so I'm ready for heat free styling.
This challenge came right in time! I'm in.
Count me in too...I can do this... My main style is protective. It's been over a year since I've used direct heat and I don't wear weave and extensions.
I'm definitely doing this :: I've been natural all my life but I've let my hairdresser cut it all up and I'm addicted to the flat iron as far as the heat requirements does putting your hair on rods count?
I am definitely in! does putting your hair on rods count as using heat if you sit under the dryer?
Count me in.I'm up for the challenge!!! I went to the salon to get a mini trim & the stylist chopped off 3 inches!So I'm working to get those 3 inches back & than some.
This challenge will be a great addition to the Shoeperwoman Shoe Challenge I'm doing this year. I welcome the challenge and already washed my hair using your method on the 12th for my birthday the following day. I twisted my hair thought and LOVE it! I will be posting the pictures soon!
Opps! *though*
