Me first this month! I've been ignoring this for a couple of months, but now is the time.
25"/63.5cm AND BSL :o [glb]WAHOO!!! [/glb](well, it depends on which "B" I'm wearing ::) but I'm counting it) I was thinking of a small trim this month, but I may wait and enjoy having reached my first goal, FINALLY! Patience pays off ;D ;D Also, I measured my circumference and it is 3 1/2" -- last year it was 2 1/2"-- [glb]double WAHOO!![/glb] **happy dance** don't laugh, dancin' around a bum ankle in combat boots ain't funny....well, okay, it is extremely funny but I'm doin' it anyways ;D ;D ;D |

Thanks for joining in my "dance"! I think BB and I make a lovely couple on the dance floor ::) Everybody stay out of our way--no tellin' what could happen with all that gear clumping around :o
So how is eveyone else's hair growing? |
Title: Re: April 2006 Post by Curlgirl64 on Apr 2nd, 2006 at 12:28am
Well,since I washed it this morning and it's curly now it is about 2 inches shorter than last month!! I'll measure it tomorrow morning when it turns to waves and calms down alittle. I hope it's either the same or abit longer......

ok,no late April's Fools joke,,,my hair shrunk!!! I measured it and it went from 31 1/2 or 32 inches last month to 30 1/2 this month....... I think it's because it's alittle frizzed and last month when I measured it it was straighter. I won't panic :o not much. I'll have to measure it when I wash it again and then when it's wet and calm;I'll hopefully get a better reading....

Bummer, Curlgirl64! :( Did you measure wet last time? Not having curly hair I don't have to deal with that issue when measuring. Try to decide how you want to measure and then do the same thing each month -- make a note in your post to remind yourself how you did it.

Congrats, PreciousLocks! :D
As for myself, it's about 31.8". I was at 31.0" at the beginning of March, so it looks like I had a growth spurt. ^^ |
Title: Re: April 2006 Post by Curlgirl64 on Apr 5th, 2006 at 3:26pm
ok,finally here it is..this month I'm at 32 inches. I washed,white vinegar rinsed and conditioned my hair this morning. After wide-tooth combing it I measured it and that's what I got. So last month it was straight when I measured it probably because of the weather that most of my curls relaxed. Now it's between curlie and wavy. Ah,the mind of what curly hair wants to do!

Mine is either 21 or 21 1/8 inches. My hand was too shaky to tell for sure. :-/

Hi Angel,
Shaking? Are you ok?? |
Title: Re: April 2006 Post by Blondestorm on Apr 12th, 2006 at 7:27pm
My hair is 33' long right now after a 4" trim a couple of weeks ago. Still trying to grow as long as it will grow!

26" >:( same as last month, I'm so disapointed. especially since I started Hair skin & nail vitamins. Maybe I'm mis-measuring, I'll have mom give me a second opinion later.

Curlgirl64: I'm never alright. :P ::) ;D
Measuring my hair would be a lot easier if I had another experienced longhair here to help me out. :-/ Rapunzel_wannabe: I took those Hair, Skin & Nail vitamins (mostly Biotin and C) for 4-5 months with zero results...think they're a scam. *shifty eyes* It's way easier to just maintain a healthy diet and/or take a multivitamin. Sunny, warm weather (as found in my native SoCal) also seems to encourage hair growth...which I find somewhat ironic, given my preferences for a darker, colder climate. ;) Measured again yesterday & hair is definitely longer than 21." It may be 21 1/8" or 21 1/4"....couldn't really tell. :-/ |

Curlygirl: when I measure, I take the front protion and pull it stright to measure, so I don't have to worry about measuring how curly it is today.
So, my monthly measurement is 26 inches. Yeah, one more inch! Meg |
Title: Re: April 2006 Post by Curlgirl64 on Apr 21st, 2006 at 9:47pm
yay meg :) one more inch!!! The first time I measured it was a few days after using my Maxiglide :o Since I read everyone's feedback on different "utensils" I haven't used it. Oh well,there goes $90 bucks! :( Anyway,when I measured again it was wet and I tried to get it as straight as possible without stressing my hair. Like Angel,I sure could use another Longhaired here to help!! ;D

Okay measure up time for me too! I last measured in January and it was 26 inches long. Since then I've had a couple of trims to get rid of some damaged ends, but April's measurement sees me at 28 inches! :) Quite happy with that!

Thanks! ;D I wasn't sure if that was good going or not, since I've never kept a record of my hair growth before now! I still check the site virtually every week, but don't always post, but I'm still around ;) |
