I really don't think that it took her whole life. We have a few members her with that lenght and they aren't old ladies :)

I though I'd share this with - do you know this blog/person? :) http://691superlonghair.blogspot.sk/ - she was also active on LHC and has beautiful nearly floor length hair! I think she had to cut her hair once as a teen because it got very tangled, and she hasn't done a drastic cut since. She writes about that somewhere on the blog. So, certainly doesn't take whole life to grow :D yay!

Interesting article on a very interesting woman. Business acumen - and a mane a mermaid would envy!

WOW! I have never seen a woman in real life with such long and luscious hair. It would be great if I get to see one. :o

If I try to grow out floor length then it'll take me about 10-12 years I guess. :o

I saw that lady on YouTube before. She has really healthy and really long hair. I praise the beauty of long hair. :o
