[In those pictures my hair was blown out]

I have been wearing my hair in braids for the most part of the process and a sew in weave ONCE for my graduation. For my hair regime, I mousturize with olive oil and I use herbal shampoos and conditioners. I then blowdry and then press my hair and wear it in the style as shown above. I wear that style for about a week and then I get my hair braided. Do you think I am going on the right track? If you have any tips they would be greatly appreciated =-)

And one more thing, about how long do you think my hair is in those pictures? I really don't know myself and about how long do you think it would be if it were to be permed ((NOT THAT I AM EVER DOING THAT AGAIN!)) And in 3 more months, how long do you think it will be??? Sorry for all the questions but, I am really excited that I have made it this far with absoloutley no help from anyone but myself and inspirational youtube videos I have seen..

I can say that if your hair grows the average lenght per month then your hair will be at least 1 1/2 inches in 3 months. do you moisturize daily not a lot just a little and try to kepp heat appliances at bay, do a deep treatment weekly and wear your hair in protective styles.

Naturally from me to you

ps try to avoid grease and products with ingredients like mineral oil, petroleum and paraffin liquidium etc as these are no good on the hair as it doesnt allow hair to absorb moisture or breathe.
