Non-Trimmers Measure-In

**LauraLongLocks** · February 1st, 2014, 11:21 AM

On January 1st, I was getting an inconsistent measurement between 29.5" and 30". Today, February 1st, I am getting between 30" and 30.25".

November - 30
December - 30.5
January - 31

Reminder to myself: I measured around the 15th of each month.

Oh man, I hear ya! I want these layers GONE, but I'm committed to growing the length longer before I hack any off to an even hemline.

Jan 2nd: 30.0"
Feb 1st: 31.0"

That should take me to January 2016 with no trims. I hope I can hold out that long without getting antsy for a change or getting annoyed with the shape of the hemline.

Jan 4th: 14"

Feb 7th: 14 3/4"

I'm thinking about to stop trimming, I normally just trim once a year (due to laziness), my last trim was in last march so it's 11 months since my last trim. My tops look a Little bit sad but I hope there's something else than trimming that can be done. I do S&D a Little every day.

I'm now at 38,6 inches or 98 cm (I measure in cm so that's why I have ,6) hoping for much more

2014
Jan -
Feb 38,6in/98cm

Great growth!

I got a measly 1/4th inch growth this month.

LauraLongLocks, it is so exciting getting into the 30's, for me it feels like getting into the big sandpit with the big girls, finally at last! lol..... That's how I feel anyway, gee I think funny thoughts sometimes, my hair must be sucking all the nutrients out of my brain I think...

I hadn't measured my hair at all until September, so I didn't feel like I was in the 20s very long. I feel like I've been at the 30" mark for far too long, though... ever since November 27th... I measured at 30", had a trim on December 5th, and now I'm just barely back at 30.25". I can't wait until I am 31" and beyond!
