I oiled my lengths a little before putting them in bantu knots before bedtime yesterday, and I've never had waves hold so well!!!

Or had such lovely waves in general... Gonna be bantu knots every night from now on.

It's not a super good picture to show the length, but it shows the waves beautifully:

I'm 1a and this is my dream hair!

Took a new length shot in the garden last night and my ends are finally inching back past waist! (I trimmed to just above waist a couple months ago to clean up some major split ends--I think I'm getting down to the last few inches of hair that was regularly blow dried, so hopefully that's the last mini-chop I need for damage control!)

Also, I re-purpled the ends after monday's short dye job (this time I did a full 12" this time instead of 6", so you can actually see a good bit of purple!)

(forgive the crazy outfit--it was uber hot and laundry day, which called for whatever shorts & tank top were clean!)

So happy! And I'm sure this is all due to this lovely community. You guys are awesome.

Here's my - just taken - new length pic.
I can almost dare to say that MAYBE I could get to BCL (index finger marking) at the end of the summer.

Beware! Shirtless back (all covered by hair) and short pants. It's really hot over here.

Absolutely stunning!

velorutionista, you have mdefinitely passed waist, congrats! Also, your sunflowers are so pretty. And no worries, laundry day happens to all of us

I have people be really suprised when I point out my hair reaches my waist, people are like "oh, your hair doesn't look that long". I wonder if it is becuse I'm overweight, so my body to hair ratio is different?

Gonna look into learning to trim my hair myself, I can't afford hairdressers to get my hair trimmed, and anyway I have a deep mistrust of hairdressers after all the time where I've asked for "just trim the very tips, no more than a centimeter please" and then I walk out of there with 7-8 cms shorter hair...

I'm at hip but I tell people it is waist because they know this milestone. I have noticed that there are a lot of people in the wild especially with longer or shorter hair than waist claim that milestone.

I measured yesterday and I made it to 87 cm. Changed my signature and edited my profile. My hair doesn't feel any longer, but the measuring tape says I gained a centimeter since my last measurement, so I'll take it.
