    Chin-length. Wavy and short do not get along well. At all. Pixie didn't look good on me, but it was at least easy to take care of. Chin to collarbone was just horrendous.

    APL for me! My curls aren't weighted down nearly as much as I want them to be so it makes styling really difficult! The poofiness drives me insane

    The shorter the more annoying, for me! I've never been happy with my hair at anything shorter than waist, but for each inch shorter than waist it happens to be, it's ten times more annoying!

    The most incriminating pictures I have are from when I joined...
    POOF!!!


    Awkward layers due to damage

    Annnd we've got bonus points! Even though we have totally different hair types, I think most of us have experienced the awkward short layers on top thanks to whatever damage we did. I can't remember a time in my life when I wasn't growing out front layers from highlights!

    It seriously weird how longer hair is less annoying. I always thought shorter would be easier to take care of. Then again, I'm kind of on a biased site

    A picture is worth 1,000 words....



    And I'm not fond of it's current length either, which is just brushing the tops of my traps. For me, past APL was much easier.

    I thought mid-back length was pretty annoying, because it took FOREVER to grow out. I just wanted to have my hair at waist already, because that's where I consider long hair to start.

    Thank you! I can't believe that you think my hair sticking straight up is hot, but I'll definitely take the compliment!

    Mine was during the mulletish stage of growing out a pixie just before it was long enough to tie. During the summer months it was the worst: I had hair every where, all over my face and nape without a way of keeping cool. Hated it. So.. bad.

    It's funny because I'd have to say the exact opposite. APL has been by far the most awkward length for me. The length when it wants to look like it's eating my head. Any time I wanted to wear it down, I'd at least have to do a half-up or there would be far too much hair around my face.

    But at BSL, it seems so much more manageable for me! I can wear it completely down without it looking awkward.
