About how long would it take me to grow to this length?

[CostaRita]

Also, how could I trim it as it grows?

**I chopped it off because of progressing androgenic alopecia. Before my hair got too long, there were days when I was happy with it. Right before my first chop, it was BSL and quite thin. My hair has been thinning since puberty. I lose far less hair now and I never have to deal with tangles.

It really depends on your growth rate. I'd measure your hair every month so you have a pretty good idea of how fast it grows :) It's hard to guess how long it would take.

Maybe around a 10 months to a year. It's hard to tell by the pictures how many inches of growth you'd need to have that style. It could be more time depending on your monthly growth rate. I second doing a monthly measure to do some calculations! :)

Here is a nifty spreadsheet for keeping track of growth and projecting length goals ;) : http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/showthread.php?t=36275

Meteor you are amazing! That link is great!

^ :o Thank you, gthlvrm, you are too kind! :blossom: Yes, Shastrix's spreadsheet is really cool for keeping track of growth; she even made it compatible with a bunch of different date/unit regional settings and added different measurements for thickness/terminal length! :cheese:

I' say a year.
