This is a picture I took of my hair today. I haven't taken one for some time, and can't believe how long it is!

Yeah, I knew it was long...but not this long!

You're just an inch or two ahead of me. :D How long are you aiming for?

Thanks for the nice comments everyone! :blossom:

It definitely is not as thick as it used to be, but this picture was taken shortly after a shower...so it was still wet.

The waves are really only there when my hair is this long (my longest ever!). At waist length they seem to be half way there.

freznow, When I was 3 years old, I told my mom I wanted hair like hers which was just past waist length. She said ok and the shortest it has been since then (at 17 yrs) is just a few inches past my shoulders (mid upper arm?).

My avatar pic was taken about a year ago with a PapaDonh hair stick.

Honestly, I never expected to have it this long, there was no goal....and I'm sort of tired of it. *yikes* It's everywhere!

What's your goal?

Well, I never thought I'd want to go longer than classic, but here I am... currently aiming for mid-thigh, and if I get that far who knows? I'm kind of curious to find out where my terminal length is, just once in my life.

So are you going to cut? :D

Wow! Mid-thigh!

I have mixed feelings about cutting it. I want to...but then when I think about it I change my mind. Really, I just don't know.

I did notice her picture and thought she has beautiful hair! It would probably take me another year+ or so to get there.

Your hair is so lovely! I am interested, though, in what you said about how the waves are more prominent now than when it was at waist length. Wouldn't your length tend to pull the curls out of your hair?

Thanks!
My hair has never been curly, just wavy around the hairline and in the back center, mostly underneath. I don't understand why, but it is a lot more wavy now except for the first 4-6 inches of growth where it is almost straight.

It seems like the waves would be pulled straight, but they just seem to spiral more at the ends.

I don't get it.

I am astonished by how long your hair is, it is noticeably longer than Classic Length. And your signature picture is equally as beautiful. However I agree with Maliha, you should now concentrate on volume.

How long has it been since you began growing your hair, and how long was your hair before you started growing it?

It's totally up to you but I have become a don't cut advocate. Since I cut mine - I liked it at first but now I so miss it! Look at before and after then think a looong time before you cut. I wish I could have my hair back. Alas I have to work and wait to get it back. Your hair is beautiful but you have to be comfortable. I hope you keep it long.

I don't think there is anything wrong with the volume here at all. Your hair is wonderful.

I am astonished that somebody has even mentioned you cutting it! I thought we were all encouraging long hair here!

You have wonderful hair, I really hope that you don't cut it and keep on growing it.

It was obviously wet when you photographed it and it looked stunning. One of the nicest loose haired photos I have seen on here.

You have the hair I would desire.

Mine isn't nearly thick enough or strong enough to get to that length.

I am so pleased for you!

Wow, really beautifull, so very long and thick.

Even while wet in the picture, it still looks thick and full. So i don't understand the reactions: "concentrate on volume" from some of you at all. Just look at that even hemline! There's nothing wrong with the hairvolume! Most of us here would love to have such full hair.

You have gorgeous hair. I had guessed that the photo was taken while still damp. I imagine it must be really full and even more gorgeous when those pretty waves dry.

I can relate to the surprise of discovering that your hair is longer than you'd imagined. I just had my dd take a pic of mine and it was way longer than I expected too. Funny how that happens. :D

I can also relate to the ambivalence about having your hair so long. It takes a long time to get hair that long and I think most people enjoy change from time to time. I had been considering cutting my hair when I discovered LHC. It had gotten long enough that I was starting to sit on it and I've always considered that to be the point at which my hair needs a cut. I was thinking of going up to BSL or so.

Then I found LHC and discovered a multitude of new ways to fix my hair and also saw many women (and a few men) with hair in even longer lengths and it was gorgeous. Instead of feeling like my hair was abnormally long, I finally felt like I was in like company and my hair was a fairly common length (imagine that). When I looked around and saw all the cool new updo's and great new hairtoys and great lengths, well, I was inspired all over to keep growing it.

My suggestion before you cut is to try out some new ways of wearing your hair, new hairtoys, etc. Then if you still feel like you want an even greater change, well then go for it. It's your hair. It should make you happy. :-)

But, for the record, I think it's positively gorgeous the way it is!

Meanwhile, I'd love to have a thread where everyone checked in with updated hair progress/hair do pics... It's probably already on here somewhere. *goes back to rummaging*
