I'm lurking in this thread, seeing what I have to look forward to once I (hopefully) reach waist by the end of the year.
I just wanted to say what beautiful progress you've made from 2004-2009! It looks to me like your hair grows fast! :cheese:

I felt that my hair was going to be stranded just above waist for ever. Since joining LHC and changing a few of my routines my hair has finally started growing again. I have now past waist (currently 34 inches) and am hopefully on my way to tailbone.:)
I'm starting to feel like a longhair. I'm not at my goal yet, and not at a length I consider long, but in a month so I'll be noting my 1sy anniversary in LHC and it made me reflect on how long was my hair when I joined. I roughly added 5"-6" (and microtrimmed some) to my shorter layer, which was BSLish then and solidly past waist now. Suddenly LONG! :D
I'm starting to really enjoy my length, as it gets further and further away from what I used to have for years, and I hope you all do the same. :D
I've tried measuring the goal points on different days, and I know I am not growing or shrinking, and I get a margin of error of about 1-2". I think it depends on how tall I'm standing (meaning, whether or not I am tired!) and how I'm holding the tape. "BSL" can depend on the bra. I just got rid of a couple really annoying bras that sort of...crept vertically up my back. In addition to being uncomfortable they were screwing up my efforts to get an accurate read on my hair length. I have enough problems with the humidity in the air, for pete's sake ;)
I knew this thread existed! Here are my own progress pics.

This was taken on June 26th of 2008. I left my hair to grow untrimmed (not even S&D) for over 18 months, hence my fairy ends.

This was taken a year later on July 14th 2009. I have had two dustings since, one just before Christmas and one on Feb 2nd of this year. They both helped to re-introduce a straight hemline to my back.
Holy crap Eric--your hair grow FAST!
Wow! Looking great, Eric! :thumbsup:
Hi, everyone! http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-greet024.gif
I am at just about hip length, on my way to tailbone.
To the people with a long top half, I am just the opposite. I am at hip at only 31" and waist on me is like 24" or 25"! http://i656.photobucket.com/albums/u...ious/blush.gif
From hip and beyond, I have a long way to travel to reach goals...I have a long heinie! :p
This is my latest length shot:

Mine does this, too! Very annoying. :D
I just recently trimmed an inch off the right side to try and even things up a bit. I think a couple of my album pics show the weird diagonal I had going on. Silly hair. :p I'm not doing it anymore either, since my varying wave pattern makes it look uneven at the hemline from day to day anyway. :shrug:
ericthegreat, your hair does grow very fast, & I'm jealous that it is the same in all weather and climates for you ;)
hootietoot, looks like hip length to me--and your avatar pic cracks me up!
