Merci Larissa! J'ai commence a ajouter l'huile de castor dans my deep conditioner, castor helps to thicken the hair.

Justme- thank you, as for the split ends I deal w/ them accordingly. I baggy my ends: saturate then with a moisturizer then seal them w/ coconut oil and cover them w/ a plastic cap. I do this everyday for hours.
I read Cathy Howse's Ultra Black Hair Growth II book, she said that "trimming the hair is a maintenance step for appereance purposes only. Poor hair maintenance causes split ends. Often, once you stop doing so many damaging things to it(excessive heat, over-processing, brushing) split ends will be kept to a minimum." I do believe her statement to be true.It is a personal challenge of mine to keep my slipt ends to a minimum. Hope I was not too long and that it help:)

Sounds like a great challenge! Make sure to keep an eye on your ends during the process to make sure they remain healthy. I can't wait to see the progress.
