I just measured this morning and I'm at 26.25"! That's up an inch from last months 25.25"! Woot woot! If I keep this up I'll be at waist in around March.

33" this month. It's the first time I've measured since I joined LHC 2 months ago. So I have 1/2" of growth from 2 months ago, but I also did a 1/2" trim between then and now, so my growth is about 1/2" per month. I just started on Biotin a few days ago, I'm excited to see if it effects my growth at all. :)

28.5" Just another inch and a half until waist! Maybe by the end of the year...

October 1st, 2009, 12:14 PM
I made it to a little over 35.5" but sadly had a trim to get rid of my split ends, so now back to 34". My hair is really soft now and my ends are thick so I can't complain too much. :D

About 26 inches, which I suppose does mean it's grown since last month. Kinda depressing to see I started out here with 25 inches at the end of April, even though I know it's only an inch longer because I trimmed (trust me, it was needed!). No more measuring for me til my 1 year anniversary here. It'll be better that way.

I'm at about 20.25-- I think! For some reason my hair doesn't want to sit still and be measured lately. :D

40.5 inches and longest it has ever been and feeling I could be heading towards classic.

October 1st, 2009, 01:08 PM
29.5 this month...I gained about 3/4 inch. My vitamin taking has been sporadic this last month, and my hair grew faster! Weird. I've been shedding a little more heavily this month (beginning of autumn is normal for me) but thankfully not my longest hairs!

Got my usual half inch so I'm now at 25.5

October 1st, 2009, 01:11 PM
I just measured and gained an inch!!! I'm at 5" now. Only a few more months of the awkward stage left. Hopefully by 2010 it'll start looking more girly, cause the layers are out of control, I just don't feel like trimming off the bottom length to even it out yet.

i measured a couple weeks ago and it was 22" dry and curly

Hay22
October 1st, 2009, 02:03 PM
24.5, which is right where I was last month before a 1" cut. It's weird, though, because I stopped taking all of my supplements a couple of weeks ago, so you wouldn't expect an inch of growth.

Samara Morgan
October 1st, 2009, 02:03 PM
I'm at 40.5 inches this month so I'm on track with another 0.5 inch :)

I trimmed last month so I am measuring in at 29 1/2"

LittleOrca
October 1st, 2009, 02:12 PM
I am now at.... *drumroll as I measure....*

40-41 inches!
(Most of the hairs reach 40 inches with the tip of my fairytale ends reaching 41)

That is about an inch of growth in one month! :happydance: (Since last time it was between 39-40.)

I grew a 1/2 inch this month and am measuring 23 inches!!!

Well, I didn't measure last month, but I just checked now and I'm at 28.5".

freckles
October 1st, 2009, 02:17 PM
measuring right now, I seem to have gained about a quarter of an inch since my trim about two weeks ago. But I'm not sure that my measuring is quite accurate enough to claim that victory :p

October 1st, 2009, 04:25 PM
Oh, I am SO frustrated.... I swear I am a totally inept measurer..... I can tell (overall) that it is growing when I look at pics, but when I measure I get the same as last month or shorter.... :justy: arrghhh!!!!

camirra555
October 1st, 2009, 05:44 PM
Another half inch for me. I'm at 26.5 inches. So slow! I wish I was like the people who got an inch per month even if it was just for 6 months

jojo
October 1st, 2009, 05:45 PM
28" for me a full 2" in 2 months " HOORAY!" only 3" growth this year though "BOOOOOO"

eta: i'm officially past waist!

glass in bloom
October 1st, 2009, 10:40 PM
29.5. That's a half inch since I last measured at the beginning of Sept. I guess my growth spurt is over. But yay! It's waist at the very ends!

pradabacon

32" for me. WooHoo!

57" up from 56.5" last month. Took 4 measurements: 2 at 57", 1 over, and 1 under.

Lucky
October 2nd, 2009, 02:12 AM
Still at 20 inches, I had a trim this month. Hoping for some good growth this month!

Maud
October 2nd, 2009, 02:36 AM
26 inches, last month it was 25,5

Little_Bird
October 2nd, 2009, 02:44 AM
Oh well...

I only had 0.39 inches of growth this month, but I'm not worrying! I've had this growth rate in the past as well.... (and compared to last year, I'm only half an inch late on my yearly growth)...

So it brings me to 102 cm (40.16 inches).... Finally at 40!!! :happydance:

Lize
October 2nd, 2009, 02:49 AM
I'm at 17.9 right now. Not sure where I was at last month. I think I will stick to measuring only once a month from now on.

Poppy Seed
October 2nd, 2009, 03:02 AM
Can't remember the last time I measured in... currently 46", and I shall have to post a photo - I think I'm fingertip length.

Chrissy
October 2nd, 2009, 05:45 AM
I'M SOOOOOOO EXCITED!!! I'm now 19". I grew a whole inch!!! Yeay!!!! Normally my hair pretty average and grows 1/2" per month. Yippie!! I'm so mad my son sat on our digital camera and I can't take a picture. We can't afford a new one right now. I'm going to save my pennies. I would love to post a new picture.

I'm at 44 inches. I hadn't really been measuring until I joined LHC recently. Now I'm curious what my growth rate actually is, because I've never paid that much attention. But I need to trim soon, so it will be a few months before I can tell.

Juneii
October 2nd, 2009, 09:55 AM
solid 31" it was about 32" last month? and I grow about 1" per month. so I trimmed off about 2" a few weeks ago, my hair feels great.

JamieLeigh
October 2nd, 2009, 10:11 AM
I'm right at 44" as of the other day. So far the hemline looks good, and I'm going to do a microtrim on my LHC anniversary (Oct 17), then put it up for a year and see how far I get on no trims, just for schitzengiggles. ;)

fluffybunny
October 2nd, 2009, 10:45 AM
Woo-hoo, mine measures 22". I need to change my settings :)

SpinDance
October 2nd, 2009, 11:35 AM
My son just helped me measure and reported it is 32.5 inches now. The last 3 or 4 inches are thinner than above that, so I know I'll eventually need to trim again. In the mean time I'm mostly wearing it up anyway, so let it grow!!

One of these days I'll get pictures taken, once I get the camera back....

WritingPrincess
October 2nd, 2009, 11:50 AM
41" and only one more 'til classic! My hair seems to be growing about an inch a month lately, which is wonderful when coming up on a milestone. :happydance:

OhioLisa
October 2nd, 2009, 12:22 PM
Up my usual .5" this month. Measuring 38.5" :)

redneckprincess
October 2nd, 2009, 01:07 PM
got a measure in today..some hairs say 18" STILL... some (like 30 hairs) say 20"..what the heck...ahhh well im sure its growing Ill do a more accurate check in a next time I wash it...its kinda curly/funky wavy from sleeping with wet hair last night...but i love it..except the front...so is life..

Amara
October 2nd, 2009, 03:17 PM
I measured myself and got a the longest bits at 39"! 39" is tailbone for me - woohoo! This was wet, of course, Dry it hangs a little above tailbone. I trimmed a bit a month or so ago. So, in 10 months, assuming my average growth stays constant, I'll be at CLASSIC! I never imagined I could be headed there. And so close, too! August 2010! I'm not planning on trimming until then, unless the ends get very dry or crunchy and need a bit taken off. Even then I'll just do .5" or so, so I should be at classic no later than fall 2010.

mbaker223
October 2nd, 2009, 03:21 PM
This is my first measure ever. I'm at 23 and 1/3 inches :) yay I had no idea it was almost 2 feet long!

mellie89
October 2nd, 2009, 05:57 PM
It's my first official measure as well. I'm at 21".
I started a biotin regimen this week, so hopefully I'll start getting some good growth. I think I get the average 0.5" per month normally.

Coriander
October 2nd, 2009, 06:21 PM
Up 3/4" to 39" solid.

GlennaGirl

16", I have so many layers growing out, it's going to take some time!

ladylibra
October 2nd, 2009, 09:07 PM
Well, from my hairline to my shortest layer, I am 24 inches. So finally, the shortest layer has made it to BSL - an accomplishment in itself! :cheese: The longer layers are MBL, with some random V-shaped nape hairs striving towards waist. :D

These are straightened measurements, of course. In my shrunken curly state, my hair still just barely touches my shoulders. :laugh:

October 2nd, 2009, 09:12 PM
41.5'' GRRRRRRRRR it's not growing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Stephichan
October 2nd, 2009, 09:24 PM
I have kind of a crummy measuring system (I don't own a tape measure) so I measured three times. First one was 24", second was 23.5" third was roughly 24". So I'll average and say 23.75". Still set to reach bsl around December (if no trims or stalls).

nicolezoie
October 2nd, 2009, 09:29 PM
I don't pay much attention to how long my hair's gotten, but I measured for the first time in awhile this morning and it was 64 1/4" which is longer than I realized. Must be nearly to my ankles now...

maria_asa
October 3rd, 2009, 04:25 AM
I finally made it past the 1m metre mark! :cheese: I got a bit more growth than usual this month and am now at 101cm/39.8".

Brianna
October 3rd, 2009, 10:20 AM
About 31.75 inches, which is pretty much exactly 1 inch of growth the past two months. :)

cassie_g
October 3rd, 2009, 11:25 AM
42.75" Next stop: knee length which is about 50"

31" straightened
28" wurly/curly - Woohoo! Made it pass the abyss to BSL!

Les
October 3rd, 2009, 12:12 PM
35". That's up 0.5" from last month - as expected. 1 more inch (2 months to go) till I'm at an even yard at this pace.

Ravenwaves 88
October 3rd, 2009, 01:28 PM
I think I measured wrong or I didn't grow last month. 28.5" I hope to get some growth this month.

Xan
October 3rd, 2009, 02:49 PM
39" whoo hoo almost in the 40's can't wait.

Medievalmaniac
October 3rd, 2009, 03:12 PM
26"...up an inch from the starting length. I thought it would be more - but I guess any progress is good progress! :)

longinthehair
October 4th, 2009, 07:15 AM
Still growing - Yay! - Measured dry this time, cause October sort of crept up on me.. Now at least at 40.5 inches - wowsa..if I do say so myself! (Cinnamon Hair, here I come..yah, right..well I can dream I guess..only over 17 more inches or so to go..mmmm..wondering if that's possible???) Realistically at this point, still lumbering towards classic..being long waisted, it's going to take awhile.

noelgirl
October 4th, 2009, 07:26 AM
30.5", same as last month, which is kind of crazy since I trimmed 1.5" early in the month. Can't believe I have it back already, I measured like 5 times because I couldn't believe it! :cheese:

maaria
October 4th, 2009, 07:55 AM
I´m a "slowgrower" so I have not think so much about how much my hair has been growing, I do have noticed that something has happend with the lenght:o

karli
October 4th, 2009, 08:02 AM
Trimmed a bit, up 0.3 inch, so 30.3. Longest layer now reach waist!

basketcase413
October 4th, 2009, 08:54 AM
28", up 0.5".....same steady growth. Well past BSL, and creeping steadily toward waist.

ale
October 4th, 2009, 10:37 AM
Approaching one meter! Now it's easier to measure from the ground to the tip of my hemline and subtract from my height than actually measuring my hair...I'm reaching milestones on milestones!

LoversLullaby
October 4th, 2009, 10:40 AM
Exactly 20 inches. =)

I'm getting 38" from my self measuring... that would be 1 inch growth since September 5th (almost exactly one month). Now, I think it's just shy of 38" but I'll have to get my husband to measure it tonight to be sure (he's at work now).

If my measuring is accurate I had 1" growth in one month, which is great for me. It could be due to the new supplements I added to my daily routine. Yippee!!! :cheese:

theskeletonkey
October 4th, 2009, 03:12 PM
I'm at 25" this month. My hair has grown an inch a month the past three months.
Woo hoo!

shadowclaw
October 4th, 2009, 05:36 PM
I'm at 31 inches this month, which is 3/4 inch more than September. I hope my growth rate of 3/4 - 1 inch continues! No length shot to post, and I don't think I'll be changing my sig picture until I hit waist.

InTheCity
October 4th, 2009, 06:52 PM
24" - having had my first trim since I started growing! :D

I've had just about the perfect 1/2" from January (20.5) to September (24.25). My trim 2 weeks ago was probably 3/4" or so because here I am starting October at 24" - which is perfect.

Very happy :cheese:

As I get closer to my original goal, I'm pretty certain I'll change it once I get there. All the waste length hair on here makes me drool.

bridgetsgirl
October 5th, 2009, 10:26 PM
12.75"...creeping along, just under an inch in the past 2 months.

67 cm, that is 1 cm growth.

julliams
October 11th, 2009, 05:24 AM
Got hubby to read the tape measure today and it seems I may be 24 and a 1/4 inches which would mean I have grown an inch in a month which I didn't know I could do.

I'll be interested to see if this keeps up as I did a hairgrowth chart when I was a teen (where I pulled out my longest hair and stuck it on a chart - yes weird I know) and I was growing 1 cm each month on average.

I measure at the end of the month, measured late due to lost tape measure. Maybe now I can keep measuring at the beginning of the month. 23 inches, up 1/2 inch from September.
