I trimmed another inch or so and I am still at 44 inches. My hair has been so awful lately that I have neglected it. I really need a new water softener as our old one is not working and our well water is very hard. I am going to start looking and try to get one before the end of the year. Last night, I did a clarifying treatment with baking soda, a vinegar rinse, and I used a protein conditioner. It worked pretty well. I need to trim the splits up the legth of my hair and do a deep conditioning treatment this weekend & I hope I will have time to do it. It has been over a year since I have done any deep conditioning. The garden is taking up all my time extra time right now.
