Day 58 (Feb 28, 2010)
Well my hair is still breaking, nothing too serious. I am concerned, because traditionally I see breakage around the 7-8 post mark. But even more concerning is the fact that my hair is breaking is way too close to the roots (long pieces vs short tiny pieces) . I think I was unmistakably using a product with protein on my scalp as a growth aid. I am going to stop using this scalp treatment because what is the point of accelerating my growth just to have it break off? Not sure if it was really speeding up my growth as much as I would have liked anyway, and the risk is not worth it. I don't want too many setbacks. Oh well, I will just stick to my faithful scalp oil blend.
Day 59 (March 1, 2010)
My hair and new growth feels soft. I have stalled the breakage by doing a protective style. Hope I have remedied with my deep conditioning treatment.
Day 60 (March 2, 2010)
I am sad and in a panic. I did not want to end this challenge like this. Alas, the breakage I am experiencing is worst than I thought . I am devastated right now. Now your probably thinking, okay it's just breakage, deep condition and you can stop it. It isn't just any type of break. My hair is breaking at the root! The root! How do I know this? Well I have very long strains in my hand, there are no bulbs at the end and there are spots in my scalp were there is 1/4 inch of hair!!!!!! Now if that isn't severe breakage I don't know what is. I am in a panic because I don't know what to do. I know one thing I am no longer using the scalp creme I have been using. I thought I could handle even small doses of protein, but apparently I can't. This is a serious setback. I am so sad right now. I just hope I can salvage most of my hair.
As an aside. Two thumbs up for the EVCO. It took some time, but eventually did its magic as promised.
Promises:
As for my current state of affairs I really need to do some hard core babying of my hair for the next 5 weeks....I am really, really sad right now.
