February Hair Growth Update

Image
Late update but February pictures were taken on the 3rd so it still counts. It is the beginning of the new year so am choosing to start fresh and no longer use the 2025 pics. When I do it will be very selectively.  I was a bit upset when I first took this picture because I was expecting way more hair growth. Looks like a lot of hair breakage if I am being honest. Then again who knows how bad my hair was if I were to straighten it at any point last year. Here is my starting point for 2026.  I am honestly going to ignore my January post because I clearly did not straighten it all the way. I had some frizziness which did not reflect its real growth. Or lack of. I am so mad at myself for not taking just 5 minutes of my time to fix the kinks but oh well.  Here is what the behind pics look like. Like i said it is hard to see growth. I initially took it bad as if my hair is thinner but I really think it is the frizzines...

I even started worrying all over again because I do notice my hair is thinning yet again. Not so much clumps in the shower but in my hair brush. It is needed to get clear more frequently. Nonetheless, here is what my hair looks like today. Solo here is a years difference in my hair journey: Sad but it is what it is. But we can also look once again to see how far I have come: ...

December Hair Growth !!! Real Progress Starts 2026!!!

I have come to terms that my hair has a LOT of growing to do. After browsing hair growth pictures on Reddit, I now realize that many of them have most of their hair already grown out from their tips and it is just growing from there. Me? Majority of it is growing from the scalp or a little past it at least so my growth appears a lot slower due to everything growing at different starting points. My massive hair shedding in June is to thank for that. Despite this, I do see growth since June. It's been 6 months now and patience is a virtue.  Considering hair grows at .5 an inch per month and according to Google it will take at least a year and a half for any hair growing at the scalp to reach my shoulders. That's a lot of wait.  I went from: To: Yes, it got shorter but it is MUCH HEALTHIER. I greatly needed trims and loving care to it. However it has been 6 months and this is all I have to show for it. All I did was iron/collagen supplements, h...
