Well, my 2 year anniversary is actually in November 2009, but I missed it :lol:
I started to grow my hair in November 2007 and joined a German hairboard (my LHC join date is the 9th August 2008 ). My hair was heavily layered and it took me almost a year to get rid of them. I had my aunt (she's a hairdresser) cut a few centimeters every six weeks, now I have it trimmed every six months (or even less frequent, I don't keep track of it).

August 2008 vs. December 2009

5. July 2008, almost without layers

15. December 2009, almost at "Can I call this waist?" :cheese: My hair's a bit stringy because I put in a lot of oil this morning.
It looks like it's at waist, but that's just because of the camera angle. Approx. 5 cm to go!

My goal is fingertip with a thick, even hemline.

Wow, your hair looks so healthy, very thick and shiny.

Genuinly thud-worthy, can you imagine how it will be like when it is fingertip lenght???

Wow! In the first photo with the French Braid, your hair is both incredibly shiny and thick! Did you apply a little bit of oil before you braided, its so blindingly shiny!

And you are growing along wonderfully over these past 2 years, I love how blunt your hemline is!

Yes, but it just looks like that because of the camera flash ;)

Every time I see pictures of your hair I am thoroughly impressed. I wish I had that thickness and shine!!! Your braids are always a pleasure to see.

I think you are my hair twin. I changed 1c/2a to 1/c lately because the winter is making it flat. ii/iii, M/C. My color is probably slightly darker than yours but that's it. By the way, you have NO TAPER! Awesome braid! Mine has been cut back to around your first picture to get rid of layers and damage. I can't wait until it looks like your last picture there. It looks like you're about two years ahead of me. Now I know where I'm going.

Mmmm! YUMMY-looking hair! Esp. your most recent braid -- so thick, lush, and delicious looking! (No, I'm not interested in eating hair! Just in a food-related-adjective mood, I guess!) You've made great progress. And, yes, that is definitely almost-waist-length! :redgrin:
