Length Check
So this January/2/2016 will mark 2 years post my big chop!!! Soooo super excited. Going natural is one of the best decisions I've made. My hair has been flourishing without the stress of relaxers and I'm totally loving it. I have experimented with tons and tons of products, even creating my own experimental concoctions! In 6 months i was able to grow my hair to a huge full bun ( See post here - How I grew my hair to a full bun in 6 months) and now almost 2 years later, the bun is a complete giant bee hive!

Shrinkage
Yes I do have a crazy amount of shrinkage. Shrinkage can be caused by humidity in the air, compressing hair or when water/a moisture containing product meets kinky hair.This post is just a length check post, but I will write another post in about a week about "10 things I do to encourage growth and prevent breakage of my hair". I did not want to make this post very long and so I chose to separate them.
New Products
ORS hair fertilizerSo after much experimentation, I finally found the bestest moisturizer for my hair, with the help of a fellow natural friend! #ThankYouMiss!!! ORS moisturiser is seriously amazing! It leaves my hair feeling soft, healthy and absorbs quite quickly into my scalp, nourishing it hence encouraging growth. A dry scalp is not a happy scalp that's why it's important to find a great moisturizer as opposed to hair oils which just leave hair and scalp feeling dry and brittle after a short while. #ProductReview if you'd like one, so let me know!
Tresemme NaturalsI came across this conditioner on @Naturalme4c's YouTube product review. MahoganyCurls also spoke very highly of it in a review and had actually been using it for a very long time. So I decided to give it a try aswell, as these ladies are gurus in the natural hair community. I will do a blog review on this product because there are just so many good things to share about it! So stay tuned!! But yes so far it has been nothing but goodness. Thank you Youtube!
