I got a trim on Thursday to get rid of the split ends and now I'm at 30 1/2 inches.

lol!! Angel When and I say this (with my hands up in the air)my curls decide to behave!!! I tried the Pantene Pro V Intensive Treatment Shampoo and deep conditioning treatment today and I am not impressed ::) Maybe I should let the DC sit there for a good while and I'll get better results.
Thanks for the visual commpliment! 8) :)

hehe you're welcome. ;)

Yeah, when it comes to Pantene treatments...or any treatment for that matter, I usually let them sit in my hair for at least an hour with a shower cap covering. I'm not sure if it's overkill but it seems to work.

I'm at 38" after my 6" trim. Now let's see if it will start to grow again.

I'm at 23.5 inches, well, my hair is cut as a V so the longest part is at 23.5, that is. :P
Can't wait for my hair to get longer!

Edit: Hehehe, apparently my hair is already longer! I measured wrong, it's about 28 inches! :D

Good growing to you all!

Ok, is it okay that I put my measurements here too? ???

My husband helped me measure today, and I'm at 23.5 inches.

Nancyn28, yes of course. Anyone can post their length here. I do it to mark how much I grow a month.
This month it's 25.5". I've changed from using a ruler to a yardstick. It may be more accurate.

yep, just checked last month's measurement. I lost a 1/2 an inch by changing to a yardstick. It's ok. I'll use the yardstick from now on.

Wishing4...

A fabric tape measure always works best. I got mine years ago at Wal*Mart for about 97¢ ;D

Had a major trim. Now hair is in a U shape. The salon lady cut off more than I asked for and the U shape is more pronounced than I really wanted.
I guess it will grow back. Still...

Ok Now I'm back at 88cm/34.64cm at the longest point

Well, actually it's not really OK...

(((((hugs))))) Greek Lady! :o

I'm so sorry your hair cut did not meet your expectations. You are right - it will grow back, but I totally understand the frustration that goes with not getting what you asked for.
