When I cut my hair to shoulder length ... I don't know what was wrong with me! But I liked it. And yes, it did take a lot more to take care of it. But I stumbled across your site while looking for new hairstyles, and saw that picture of your long, LONG locks in the guide for growing long hair and I thought ... I want that again. So I just wanted to say thank you, Rapunzel, for giving me inspiration! I am so surprised at my growth rate; it seems that my hair wants to grow as much as I want it to! And soon I will have hip-length locks again (I thought they were waist length but I just realised that the waist is a lot higher than I thought it was!). It's nice to know that a lot of you have been on this same journey and are growing their hair again.
