Before I found the LHC I used 'elbow length' (which is pretty much equal to waist length on me), since that was the length my hair had reached.
I generally use the conventional ones, but I have pulled the hair in front too and have reached navel length and sometime last year I was probably just past covers-my-boobs-length. Now I've also passed butt-dimple-length in the back. Can't wait for covers-my-other-hair-length and folds-in my-lap-length, not to mention sit-on-it-length.

Growing my virgin roots since the end of 2011. Maintaining at TBL+ in 2015!

I always liked bone-based markers -- elbow, iliac crest, etc.
However, my hair is currently sitting about at top-of-the-buttcrack when it's dry and wavy (longer when wet). It also happens to be "I just stood up and my hair's caught in my pants waistband -- ack!" length.

Long hair hiatus: short hair for now, buzzcut!
Jerks my head back when I sit in a chair length (My back pins it!)
I feel like I have constant whip lash some days.
Now measuring in at 37 inches, or BCL. Classic by Christmas '15 is a real possibility! Yeah, that's my clothes horse in the pic. I'm that glam.

Mine is (sadly still) "just below my collarbone" length and "long enough for a topknot without the back hairs coming out" hopefully I'll have longer sounding ones soon! :-)
My happiest marker was when I could braid my hair at night and even the shortest front layers would stay in the braid all night. I waited a long, long time for that one!

My first goal was originally to grow to what appears to be wrist length. The exact marker, however, is that if my hair is pulled in front, it comes down to the point where the thigh meets the torso. It's somewhere around wrist length or TBL, but I just know that that's the exact length I really want it.
Unfortunately my hair is thin at the ends so I've a long way to go if I ever decide I really want to get there.

My unconvential ones are on the front -over boobs to nipple, over boobs to bra band, over boobs to belly button (if I can make it there, still like 3 more inches!)
