Waist Length Reached!

Here are my latest length pictures:

As you can see, I have finally reached waist length.

I'm happy and thrilled to have achieved this wonderful length but I have bad news as well. I'm currently going through another horrible shedding phase similar to the one I had last fall. It's extremely frustrating and scary and I really hope this will stop soon. :-(

My Hair Oils

These are the oils I'm using right now for my hair:


Khadi Balsam Hair Oil
"Ingredients: Brassica juncea (Mustard oil) Citrus medica limonum oil (Lemon) Sesamum indicum (Sesame oil) Cinnamomum camphora (Camphor) Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tee Tree oil) Azadirachta indica (Neem)

Directions: Part your hair and apply oil all over the scalp. Massage the scalp gently with fingers in a circular motion so that the oil gradually gets absorbed into the scalp.

Leave for an hour or more before washing. Keeping it overnight is also very beneficial."


I don't use this very often. It smells horrible and I'm not sure if it actually does anything at all for my scalp. More info here.


Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
I oil the ponytail section of my dry hair with this in the morning, bun it and wash my hair in the evening. Love the smell!

Extra Virgin Jojoba Oil
I use this on the end of my sleeping braid, as a leave-in on damp hair to seal in moisture or as a de-frizz lotion on dry hair. A very good beginners oil since it's very light.

Argan Oil
I use this in the same way as I use the jojoba oil.

L'Oreal Professionnel Oilixier
Ingredients: Olea Europea Oil (Olive Fruit Oil), Isopropyl Palmitate, Argana Spinosa Oil (Argana Spinosa Kernel Oil), Lavandula Angustifola Oil (Lavender Oil), Linalool, Limonene

I love this stuff!! I use this as a pre-wash treatment on dry hair and a leave-in on damp hair. The lavender smell is SO soothing.
