Hair Growth Journey: 1 Year Update

Over a year has passed since I started my hair growth journey. I've been paying my hair lots of attention and doing what I can to help boost it's growth past the level it usually grows to. This might be a common problem for African haired beauties, but there are solutions. You just need to put in a bit more effort. If you'd like to follow my journey you can check out my Start length check, 3 month update and 7 month update. 

When we made the decision to move to Barcelona, I stopped buying any new products and just tried to use up as many as I could. I still use my holy grail Dark & Lovely Corrective Leave-in and the Dabur Amla Hair Oil, and I still take Biotin Pills. Here are some of the new products I've been using:

ORS Olive Oil Creamy Aloe Shampoo

Confume Argan Gold Treatment* (full review here)

Dark and Lovely Ultra Cholesterol Conditioning Mask

Vitale Olive Oil 4-in-1 Growth Serum

Confume Argan Treatment Oil (full review here)

Tigi Bed Head Foxy Curls Contour Cream* (full review is available here)

Tangle Teezer* (full review here)

NOW Cod Liver Oil

So from my 7 month update, my hair has grown another 1.5-2 inches which I think is pretty good. In the entire year I've been on my hair growth journey, my hair has grown about 3 inches in total. Making it that much closer to waist length.

On a side note, I am considering switching to my natural hair and would love any products, tips and hairstyle you can suggest for transitioners. I know transitioning is not going to be easy and I am not sure if I'm ready to commit to it but I'm going to use up the relaxer I already have so there is less temptation to just straighten my hair and then decide.

Here is a video with some more details. I would love for you to subscribe to my channel.
