Hair Growth Challenge 2013

Start - June 2013

End - December 31 2013

For the next six months I plan to challenge myself to grow at least four inches of hair.



  • First you need to find a regimen that works for your hair. Mine is to deep condition my hair once or twice a week with coconut oil and I only shampoo my hair if I have to relax it otherwise I use a ACV (apple cider vinegar) wash.



  • Make a hair growth shirt to track your progress.


    • Start from the neckline of the t-shirt and draw a line every 1 inch.

  • The next step is to put your hair in a protective hairstyle. These can range from putting you hair in buns or just simply braiding your entire hair.

I'll post a picture of my hair after I take my braids out in August.

Co-Washing Only

What is Co-Washing?

Co-Washing is when you only wash your hair with conditioner and leave out the shampoo.

But if you really have to shampoo your hair your should use apple cider mixed with some water.
  • 1 part apple cider
  • 4 parts water

Stretch Marks, Fade Away

So if you're like 40% of women you suffer from stretch marks. Since the only way to get rid of for sure is laser surgery, you can try a coffee scrub.

Mix:

  • Coffee
  • Olive oil
  • Coconut oil
Apply to affected area and wrap in a warm towel for about 10 mins and then wash off.
