growing again

On the grow again...an experiment

After one year of trimming post my hairloss I decided to continue growing.
[ to see my hair in a thinned state after the loss click here: http://longhairedatheart.blogspot.com/2010/03/hair-january-march-2010.html]
You must now think that my hair must have been restored to its old health and thickness...but nope...
My hair has bettered a considerable amount. Not as much as I was hoping tbh, but a second shed cought me off guard in late summer.
It is also not as healthy as it used to be, but I am working on it. The thyroid issues have made it more prone to damage. I don't know wheather that will subside, but I am still working on having my dose well adjusted anyway. So we will see.

Other than that I will take care of it as good as I can and of course document that too.

Now on to my growing plans:


Stop trimming and let it grow freely for about 5 mths or so.

Sounds crazy considering my hair loss and the not so perfect state of hair but I wanna see what I can do.
If this plan is really desastrous, I can stop anytime ;).
But, if it works out my thickness should continue to grow down and my hair should be thigh length by spring with fairytale ends. I don't have to have blunt ends, I just want my hair to be managable and healthy.
Once I reach thigh length~ish hair I might maintain and trim some more.

what happened?

What happened?

I have been away for several months for a number of reasons. Mostly health issues combined with personal problems. I also moved from East to West.

Health:


Once again I dealt with the issue of 'cervical cancer' (pre-cancerous really). And this time it was a bit more severe.
Last year the abnormal cells were quickly removed with a biopsy. But this time it did not work for me and I was actually categorized as "CIN 3". There is 1-3, 1 meaning "mild cervical dysplasia and 3 meaning severe dysplasia (abnormal cells that lead to cancer).
So I had to have a LEEP done. I was given the option to do it now or within 6-12 mths, but I chose to have it done right away for several reasons.
So on Nov. 1st they removed one layer of cervical tissue. It was pretty painful since even 6 surringes did not fully get my cervix numb.
I was in the middle of my move at that time and had to move boxes into storage myself *ouch*
But I seem to be healed now and hopefully the next check up will show me free of pre-cancerous cells.

Move:
For now I am living in San Diego, California. I shall talk more about that later, just need some time to settle and move on with my life.
