The Adventures of a Newly Natural (Pt. 6)

It's been more than six months since my big chop. I finally feel like my hair is growing. My hair is actually pretty long, but I won't show a length shot until next month. But just so you can see how long/big my hair has gotten, see the photo below.

Positives
I love the size of my afro.
My hair loves Aloe Vera gel.
Detangling is easier.

Negatives
None for this month.

Growth
I'm 6" in most parts and 4.5-5" in the tighter areas (like my crown and a little bit below).
