I had to trim the ends a few weeks ago (I forgot to say anything, It was during my depressed/untalkative period) So I'm at 30".

I figured a small trim to get rid of split, crunchy, odd stabby ends was probably a good idea.. It made me feel better about my hair, and self.
And it still FEELS longer than it was... maybe because the hemline is thicker?

I measured right after conditioning, then combing through my leave in conditioner, so it's as straight as it's ever going to be... apparently I'm only a few inches from hip length! woo! (one of the benefits of being one of those people who have short torsos anyway, and I think my hips start high on my body)

So here's where I am currently. I guess the ends don't look too shabby yet, but definitely not even any more. I am not sure if I want to trim it perfectly straight or just see what shape my hair takes if I find and clip only the split ends. Hmmm. I have never really done that for a long period of time, so I may try.

Well good evening everyone Cool

. This months growing period has been excellent for me. Mom measured again this time, 1st measurement was 42 1/2 inches (bun waves left in), then I combed it out and she measured again 43 inches. Last month was 401/2 inches. So---no matter how I look at it, I have gained at least 2 inches this time. WoooHoooo Grin

. I am still doing all can do to take good care of it. But it is getting to be almost too much. I am going to do a trim around the 24th (dont know how much now) and see if that helps. The ends are really almost as thick as the general body now. I can almost sit on it again. My plan is still for my knees. So---here I grow.

joeydog 1992 Ex Member	Re: September 2007 Reply #10 - Sep 10^th, 2007 at 6:48pm Well, I am at 22 inches now. That puts me about on schedule with 1/2 inch per month. I believe my hair grows faster in the winter. Guess we will find out when I am actually measuring it as opposed to judging it by when I need to color again. JD

Seems like I'll never reach BSL! I am almost all one length now though. A lady at the salon said I had beautiful curly hair, so that was the best thing that happened at the salon...

Joan-Ivy Ruby Offline One of the ways I've been torturing my hair in Posts: 78 Sweden Gender:	Re: September 2007 Reply #26 - Sep 20^th, 2007 at 4:22pm Mine's at about 30.5 inches. I'm beginning to realise my hair's simply no good at growing fast. But as long as it looks okay in the process I'm fine. I can wait, it's still quite long (all is relative ) already. And congratulations to CurlGirl and everyone who's been dancing super-funky happy dances around here!!!
