this is really sad but I know you guys will understand!

[jojo]

I have reached a kind of Goal, my hair gets caught under my arm pits! how cools that!

I told my husband as he tolerates my hair fascination, 'aww what a shame' he says, then he looks at my face all beaming and says ' thats great sweets if you like it' :shrug: bless him!

Just wanted to share x

[DavidN]

Congratulations, Jojo! Every little milestone along the way is another reason to celebrate!:cheer:

[Peggy E.]

Took him a second to figure out this was a "good thing," huh?! Some of you guys have a nicest husbands/partners! ;o)

Now, ME, I don't like it if my hair's getting stuck in freshly deodorized underarms! Yuck.... Always something, isn't there?

[jojo]

DavidN it most certainly is, i was chuffed to bits!

Peggy E. he is the best in the world, now the deodorant thing may bug me once the novelty has worn off!

Now step catch in jeans!

[Mrs_Zombie]

Congrats Jojo!! I look forward to the day when i TOO will have hairy armpits, wait...i mean hair caught in my armpits. LOL :D

Seriously, that's amazing!! And you have a very sweet husband!!

[jojo]

LOL!! hairy armpits rock!! the head hairy ones that is!

[annarose]

I remember the armpit milestone, it was wonderful. Not the deoderant getting all over my poor ends though :D . I am now waiting for the jeans part too.

Great growing jojo!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Grats!!! My first goal was to "successfully cover my breasts" not that I was going to walk around in just my hair, and not that you were going to walk around trying to stick your hair in your pits, so I understand! haha.
Glad he is happy for you being happy. :)

[Kittee]

LOL! I remember when that happened to me!

Wait for "I just dipped my hair in the toilet bowl length." Another memorable milestone.

[Celebrian]

jojo, are you at 24 inches with hair catching in your armpits? I'm same length, but mine doesn't. Grrrr!

But then I have a rather long neck, about 7 inches plus... maybe that's why. Also sloping shoulders.

[GlennaGirl]

Congrats on your hairy armpits, JoJo, and what a wonderful guy you have there!

[eadwine]

Woohooo!! Congratulations :D

[RavennaNight]

Congrats! It's a novel feeling. I had that a few months ago and got really excited too. I have pondered, however, the whole "oops my hair skimmed the toilet" thing, because it dawned on me one week ago while flushing. I realized that one day in a year or so it may happen, and what I would do if it did... Sorry. TMI. Its just awesome when you realize your hair met a new milestone. Its great your DH is supportive. Mine is as well. Keep growing! :)

[jessie58]

JoJo, when I hit the under the armpits length, it was winter and I was shedding heavily. I used to take my sweaters off at the end of the day and they would have these disgusting hairballs caught in the armpits of them. :bigeyes:

Congratulations, it's a great stage to hit. Be careful, because now you'll be catching it in the car door whenever there's a wind. ;)

[camillacamilla]

Congrats Jojo! I seem to be at the "crumb catcher/food caught in my hair phase". That's a nice way to make a good impression.

[Lamb]

Congratulations on reaching a new milestone, jojo! :cheese:

Hmmm, good question, Jojo, have ou updated your measurements yet?

[Xandergrammy]

:joy: YAY!! Congratulations, jojo!

[Phalaenopsis]

I've just reached that milestone too. :cheese: It tickles sometimes, doesn't it? :D

Congratulations with your milestone :flower:

[Sherri]

Way to go girl! I am so happy for you. I am almost at the catching in the waistband.

[SarieQ]

Grats!!! My first goal was to "successfully cover my breasts" not that I was going to walk around in just my hair, and not that you were going to walk around trying to stick your hair in your pits, so I understand! haha.
Glad he is happy for you being happy. :)

LOL, that is my next goal too! :o

Congratulations JOJO! :cheese::cheese::cheese::cheese:

[Nynaeve]

LOL, that is my next goal too! :o

Congratulations JOJO! :cheese::cheese::cheese::cheese:

Who knows wy some women have the boob-coverage goal? It has to do with princesses or something. :p

[psvzum]

I feel your excitement! Your hubby sounds like a sweetie : )

[buttons]

Only at LHC would people appreciate something like getting your hair caught in your armpits or dipped in the toilet when you sit down :p

Congrats, jojo :D

[Curlsgirl]

That's great Jojo! I remember that too but for me it took longer than 24 inches. Mine takes longer for EVERY milestone. Sigh. I am happy for you though!!!

[bruteforcegrl]

Congratulations, jojo,
Your husband sounds like a keeper.

After 3 years on the journey of hair growth, I am increasingly grateful for this community of people who understand the odd mixed blessings we encounter along the way.

[tiny_teesha]

YAY jojo, but i too and tired of getting deodarant on my ends...lol

eta- to confess at first i thought you were going to say as i hovered over the topic and read something about getting caught your armpits, i thought you were going to say it was annoying and you cut it off and haveing long hair was not for you! I'm glad it didn't take that twist!

[Emme76]

Great going jojo. :D
I can´t wait for my hair to get caught in my armpits...lol...I will for sure be beaming just like you. Maybe I have about 2 years of growth before that will happen...lol...

Your hair looks very beautiful, by the way!!!!

[Starr]

I am queen of the giraffe necks mine is 7" too, I must have higher armpits or something!

[jojo]

Hmmm, good question, Jojo, have ou updated your measurements yet?

[jojo]

Hooray! Congratulations!

Haha. Well, I'm glad you are liking it, even if you didn't wanna reach for the tape measure. :p

[Curlsgirl]

I thought of this thread last night when my hair got caught in DH's armpit!!! He said, "I don't think THAT has ever happened before!" LOL!

[levelek]

Congrats Jojo!

LMAO!! Has this been added to that article on official hair length terminology?

[ladystar]

This is wonderful JOJO. Congrats. I am not sure if I ever went threw this stage. hmmm

[KajiKodomo]

Congrats on the getting-stuck-in-my-armpits length! :D

[jojo]

thanks guys!

[atlantaz3]

My hair is now getting caught under the dh's armpits - maybe that can be a new goal length!

[twilight]

LOL!! this goal is so funny--when i *finally* got there, i had a neurotic paranoia that i would accidentally whack my ends off while shaving my armpits! i told hubby about it and he just looked at me like i'm insane.

seriously though, i have to pull all my hair to one side b/c i'm terrified of shaving it by accident. hehe.

[suicides_eve]

oh your so lucky! i have a few more months ahead of me before i can declare that i too have my hair stuck under my arm pits;)

[suicides_eve]

:misskim::rollin: pre tlhc i used to do this to my ends all the time ,my hair would be on my back but as soon as i rasied my arms up i had this layer of hair that would hit my pits right as i would be shaving:roll: i found it funny you mentioned it

[MadPirateBippy]

I think it's awesome that your enjoying this little milestone. I only hope I'm as gracious when I start getting my hair caught in my butt crack (it already goes there while showering thanks to sheds and my hair gets longer when wet) and dipping it in the toilet on accident.

I am pretty sure I'll be happy, but at the same time, debating boiling my ends....

[Nynaeve]

haha. That's why I hate leaning down to shave my legs, my hair is at *that* length. :shudder:

[Saranne772]

Lol thats great!! Your hubbys reaction is funny ;)

[Nynaeve]

My hair is now getting caught under the dh's armpits - maybe that can be a new goal length!

Hehe. I'm still trying to figure this out. :p
