No Heat Challenge and 1st Month Update

 Hey guys! I decided to try something new with my hair this year. I have always relied on blow drying or diffusing my super crazy curly hair. So I decided to do a "no heat challenge" to retain more length and get healthier, shinier hair. Right now I would say I'm shoulder length (SL) and my goal is to be mid back length (MBL) by the end of this challenge.
 What is a no heat challenge? A no heat challenge is when you do not apply ANY form of heat to your hair for an amount of time ( ie, no blow-dryers, diffusers, hooded dryers, flatirons or curling irons allowed). I started this challenge on December 1st 2011 and will end on December 1st 2012. Yes a whole year! I think I might be crazy!!! 
 I will do monthly updates telling you how its going and what I'm doing or learning. Also I will do 3 length checks during the year, one before I start, one around June and finally one at the end of the challenge. I encourage everyone to do this challenge with  me and to just have fun! If you have any questions about my hair or my regimen just let me know!
