Check out this collage I did at two months. I can't believe how light and fluffy my locks were.
I am so glad they have much more weight and density now. That's what I've gained instead of length. That's what's happened to all of the hair I feel like I'm 'missing'.
Stay tuned for my musings on life, locks, and nappiness...peace, love, and happiness...random rhymes, madcap misadventures, abundant alliteration, and a smattering of shameless self-promotion tempered with a dabble of disarming self-deprecation.

The Lazy Woman's Comparison Post
So the 18 month marker got me thinking that I should do a comparison post to track the changes, but my other photos are on my other computer that's slow and i haven't transferred the files and it just seems like too much of a chore right now.
However...just about a year ago I did comparison shots of the first 5 months.
Here is a link to that post.
You can observe the first part of my progression.
Do you see what I mean now?
Look at how full and long they were at 4 and 5 months before they started to shrink!
Seems like the growth just stalled for the next 8 months and just started up again about three months ago.
I know it was growing because I was tightening it up on the regular, but here I am a year later and it looks not very much longer than it did a year ago - especially compared to the fast growth you can see that I experienced in my first 4 months.
Intellectually I know that it is continuing to grow at a steady rate, but the growth is showing up differently according to the different phases of lock maturation.
