Very good!

I don't milestone my hair based on stretched length, but stretched out, my longest locks are right at hip length. That's exciting! I can also get close to my tailbone when I tilt my head all the way back.

Same here. Noticed that earlier this morning.

I am sitting outside reading all of these wonderful minis and I noticed my hair is long enough now that I can see just a little bit of my ends blowing gently in the wind. Before it was too short to see my ends unless i was looking in the mirror.

Two years ago, I cut this strand up to my scalp. Here it is today about 5 inches shorter than my actual length.
It makes me wonder how long my hair would be now if I hadn't cut it in two years

My hair can actually ruffle a bit in the wind now

So my wife's hair and mine are close to the same length. She was claiming last night that this was the case and I was like "no way!" But she put us in front of a mirror, had me crouch a bit to get our heads lined up, and with my hair stretched out, it matches her pin straight hair's length. Hers still looks longer at TBL thanks to height and torso differences

That's really cool!

At the end of August, my hair was 75" when measured the LHC way from the hairline, which adds about 5" more than from the top of my head. So if I were to measure from the crown, I've now hit 70".

Wow, amazing!

My english braid now reaches my waist solidly. I am approaching BCL, probably will be there by Christmas.
