OK, so this year seems to have seen a bit of a halt in terms of growth - It's still growing, but is taking much longer.  I've also gone back to a more natural colour - I used henna for a while, but decided I just wanted to let my hair go back to its more natural tone.

- good pic for length, but not the best pic for hair quality....


I trim my own hair, which is painfully obvious by the straggly ends.  I'll keep trimming my own hair until I get back home to Newcastle for Easter, then I'll probably book a hair appointment to get it neatened up properly.

Thank you!   Hopefully it'll grow longer over the next few months - I'm going to start measuring monthly as opposed to yearly, I think that might actually make me feel a little less downheartened when I get to the end of the year and measure it to find it's only 3 and 1/2 inches different from last year (I keep telling myself it's actually grown more than that, it's just all been trimmed off....but still....)
