Everyone,

  This note may sound nuts, but here gores anyway.  I was standing in my bathroom getting ready for work today.  I have mirrors that show views from behind there as well.  I was wearing a maroon shirt and noticed all my wavy blonde hair covering my entire back falling to my butt in the mirror.  It was so beautiful to see all that golden hair!  I just love the beauty of long hair!  Do you ever catch yourself admiring your long locks like I did today?  So many of you have hair that is so spectacular!   I admit I am a hopeless lover and admirer of beautiful long locks!

This is not nutty, I enjoy looking at my hair too! ;)

Why do you think most of us have long hair?  We love to look at it too!

I enjoy IMAGINING I have long hair, since mine is not that long yet  ;D -- but I do enjoy seeing what I do have!

It's like a reality check, though...I mean, I KNOW my hair is long because I mess with it every day.  But there's something about seeing the length in the mirror's reflection that gives me pause.  It's definitely a "wow!" moment.   :)

Ehehe, you're definitely not the only one! Since I've moved to Japan I've been told my hair is too long, so I need someone to appreciate it in real life (even if its only myself)...

Juri,

  How long is your hair now.....about three feet long?  It must be very beautiful.  I certainly do appreciate your hair!!!!

Since I found this forum (beginning my 7th week), I have witnessed noticeable positive changes in my hair. Prior to that, I pretty much paid little attention, and before I knew it, 6-8 months passed and my dried-out, damaged hair had grown acceptably long. Of course, it frizzed like crazy and a trim was in order.

The point is, now that I am focusing on haircare, I pay attention to it more. This is sometimes disconcerting in that I am now aware of just how much time it takes to grow longer hair. Kind of like, "a watched pot never boils" -type thing, I guess.

So yeah, I check the mirror. Though I suspect that when it gets longer I'll succumb to more prolonged gazes.

Nice hair, Blondestorm. You give me something to shoot for.

Thanks, Hairapparent, for your compliment.  I am trying to grow longer and longer.....just keep taking my vitamins and such!  how long is your hair now?

Jim

Interesting you should ask, Jim. Coincidentally, I just took a tape measure to my hair. Three weeks ago, I had measured from the base of my neck and came up with 9-1/2 inches. Today, it is 10 inches. Then, out of curiosity, I measured elsewhere. At my temples 12", forehead 13", crown 13".  
 
I suspect the answer you're looking for is – about three inches below my shoulders.

And yours?

My hair is now between 33 and 34" long from the forehead down to the ends now using a tape measure.  I am still trying to get it longer, but the longest I have ver had was 36" before my last trim of four inches.

[smiley=thumbsup.gif] Wow! That's in the area of my waistline. The longest mine ever reached was between my shoulder blades. Any idea how long it took to grow to that length? And, why the four-inch haircut, if you don't mind me asking?

I catch myself admiring my hair in the bathroom too. It is too below my chest.
