We were in Mexico for family vacation, and everyone around me had beautiful flowing hair!
So I decided to grow it out!

It's so funny, isn't it, how our mothers have so many opinions? My mother has short hair and she thinks I should have short hair. Silly mama. I'm glad I finally decided, after all these years, to grow it out in spite of her opinion. I'm less than a year in, and my hair is just brushing my collarbones. I'm enjoying it every day.

Your hair is lovely and looks really healthy. Shiny and thick on the ends. Thanks for sharing!

Congratulations! Your hair looks beautiful.

I know the annoyance of the chubby/fat girls shouldn't have long hair thing. I used to get that all the time.

Congratulations! Your hair looks great and that's amazing growth for 3.5 years. So strange how people have rules for what you should or shouldn't do with every aspect of your appearance, doesn't make any sense to me.

I actually thinks long hair can be pretty slimming, and short hair is less forgiving. So I don't get your mothers opinion about hair length.

Your hair looks great, thick and healthy!

Thank you and yes Geenie I plan on growing it to classic Which will be the longest I have grown since I was a child. To be honest I think my length right is the longest I have had in a decade. I think... :shrug:

Gorgeous!! And great growth, too!

I get comments on when I should stop growing my hair out too :rolleyes: From it being "unflattering" to "it'll look too thin because you're fat" :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Thank you everyone for all the kind words! I am just amazed as you are at the growth I had! I'm loving it!

Concerning my mom.... I know she means well and that's her opinion... Sometimes it just ribs me the wrong way and I do consider chopping it off.... Then I'm like... naw screw that! I'm not 5 anymore I'm a grown woman and if she doesn't like my long salt and pepper hair Then too darn bad! Lol I love her too pieces
