So, after months of ranting about my hair, I may have something to celebrate now. I am growing out layers (had too major trims to achieve an all one length hair) and lately, I noticed how much thicker my hair looks with more of it being the same length. (I have about half an inch between the bottom and the top layer, but that's hard to gauge with curly hair)
Today, I actually measured my low ponytail at the nape. My circumference used to be just 3" - now it's a little more than 3.5"! And I used to believe my hair is on the thin side of ii, but no, it's a good honest ii! :cheese:
I'M just so happy about it - I know some of this thickness may be cuticle poof because I have dry hair, but heck... it's still something to celebrate, isn't it?

Sounds like the longest hairs may be at an artificial terminal from trimming and the rest of the hairs are in a real big hurry to catch up and grow longer.

Congrats.

You gained thickness? How cool! Wish my hair would learn from yours, as mine is fine/thin. Way to grow!

Thanks, everybody! I am especially happy since I am shedding more than usual right now - season change, I guess. At any rate, all and any plans of getting a haircut are erased for good!

Frannyg - I have always envied the shine and healthy look of your hair, if only my hair would have half the lustre of yours!

Congratulations Lamb! It must be so awesome to be just shy of blunt straight ends! I myself can't wait, but I have more than only 1 inch separating my layers. Anyways, I wish you the best luck on achieving the all one lenght hair! And it's so nice to ear about the circumference increase too!

You guys are all so sweet, thank you! And to think that only a short time ago I contemplated another cut... :rolleyes:

ETA? Girlcat, I will take some pics or get someone to take them, at present my camera is in a nasty uncooperative mood! (So are my hands - nasty end-of-term tremor...)

It's so hard to grow out those layers. Good for you!
I am so happy your finding your hair thicker than you thought.
