Angel Spun Ex Member	Re: May 2007 Reply #4 - May 2^nd, 2007 at 4:09am Blah. Spring hit us in February. And unfortunately, it looks as if the "blooming" season is over for my hair. I'm at 24¾" this month...only ¼" progress from last month. sigh Of course, I'm one of those backwards types whose hair grows faster during the colder months. With the weather warming up, the growth has slowed down.

Thanx for the reassurance, guys.

It's just a bummer after growing ½" every month this year to have Nature suddenly hit the brakes. I was really looking forward to having a full 25" before the big trim on Sunday, but I guess it will still be ok. I'll get to reach both of my short term goals all over again in a few months. Something to look forward to, right?

Even after the trim April 24, I was at 28'' almost exactly. Now, i'm at 27 3/4''... It Shrank 1/4 inch! Angelspun, did you steal my 1/4 inch? j/k. yeah, bummed about that one. I don't think it's normal for hair to shrink when it's not seen scissors, right?

LOL

Sorry, Kiraela, but I lost ¼" of the normal growth too. If I had stolen yours, I'd be at 25."

Perhaps your hair was wavier when you last measured it than when it was trimmed? Stylists will pull the hair straight while they're trimming so the ends will be even, so perhaps your waves were pulled straighter when you measured afterwards. Now they're just doing what they do naturally. Just an idea. Huh
