At least it has here in the summer half year. I'm curious to see if that slows down in the winter though I don't like to think of it.

Did your hair change texture?! Shocked

Wish mine would!

No...maybe?I'm not sure how to tell that...(hint help?)

I measured it again it realized that it was 15 1/2 not 3/4 I was rather put out about that and yelled at my hair brush for like a minute Embarrassed

I think mayeb it's just getting more wave and body to it so it is looking shorter.Maybe?I hope.I hope maybe this means it'll grow extra this month because a few days ago it looked super straight and long(i didnt do anything either)I think it may be the humidity messing with my hair(I live in Florida)or the saltwater.

So how do I tell if it has changed texture?It's always been soft getting les frizzy now but more wavy.Maybe i'll post a picture.

How did I miss posting my length for July? Huh

Well, does not seem to matter to much since my hair has hardly been growing at all.
It really has slowed down.
Does hair grow slower in the heat?

28" this month
Weather right now:
85F/30C
Humidity 30% - lower than it has been
Overcast
Thunderstorms on their way

I thought everyone should hear this despite the fact that I already posted my length this month.I was going through some pictures of me from back in June(the very first couple of days area)and I actually was wearing the same shirt as I was last night.At the time I had bangs going straight across my forhead.It was cute but annoying but what i noticed in the pictures threw me.My hair only hit just past my shoulders.(maybe 2 inches past)And now it's like 4-5 inches past my shoulders(i have a ton of layers)I had thought my hair wasn't growing because I couldn't tell but now I see that hair grew like 2 inches in 2 1/2 months.It's been changing texture(weird huh?)to a more wavy/curly look and I am in love.

yay for revalations.I know it doesn't seem possible but I'm pretty sure because even my mom thought it was like 2inches.

Congrats on 30inches!wow!

This month I am at 5 1/2 inches, but depending on where I measure, it can be anywhere from 5-6 inches. Oh my, the girl that is going to cut my hair at the end of the month is going to wonder if I cut my hair myself, particularly because my sides are drastically different in length!

This is one of my first posts so I'd just like to say hi to everyone!

Here in Ontario, Canada, its 20 C and very rainy and cloudy. Not very nice out. My hair...well...is very short. 11" actually. Sad

But I'm working at it! Right now it just hovers above my shoulders. In a year and a half ish (my hair is growing really fast right now, like an inch a month) it should almost definetly be at BSL! Cheesy

Really?That's unreal!
Mine is now at a steady 15inches so don't get too down.Once you get all your layers(assuming you have layers)grown out and it's one length it may go by quicker.(That's my hopeful motoo haha)
