Well, I finally made it. My original goal, my New Year's resolution of '07. Waist-length hair.

Three years to go from above-shoulder-length (don't remember how long it was exactly) to solidly waist including trims and S&Ds.

I just want to thank all of you wonderful people for creating by your convergence this community where we can share information. A shout-out to all the wonderful mods for keeping us in line! :eyebrows:

Only problem is now, of course, waist-length hair just isn't enough... On to hip, tailbone, classic, and finally (maybe) fingertip length!

Posts like yours inspire - I hope to have a similar post later this year on reaching BSL and perhaps waist the following year.

It looks to me you are really hip-length, esp. when wet. Great growth and beautifully healthy hair. You've done a marvelous job. Congrats.

Really pretty. :)

How long is it fully waved-out?

RoseRedDead
January 2nd, 2010, 05:49 PM
Waved-out??

It's ~2 inches above waist, when it's full-on wavy/curly.

Only thing is, my hair is nowadays NEVER at its optimum for wave (due to the fact that I'm on my updo challenge, and that in winter I bun wet hair).

So yes, I'm cheating a bit, but I claim the goal anyhow!

Thanks for all the comments. I can't believe so many people have responded. o_o

XD I was just curious, wasn't a comment against it or anything. :p It's still quite pretty, I was just a bit curious as to how much length you lose. It's one of those things that makes me quite bitter. :rolleyes: Thank you curly hair, for being about six inches longer straight. Oy.

Thank you for the inspiration. Your hair is beautiful! My goal for 2009 was waist and I didn't quite make it. It will be my new goal for 2010 :D Congrats on your accomplishment!

GlassEyes, I don't mind the question at all! :flowers: I'm glad you asked it, so other people can read my answer and go "oh, so she's not lying in her stats!"
