Whoo-hoo! SHRINKAGE ALERT!

[donna'sdaughter]

Good morning fellow long hairs. I haven't posted in ages(busy with midterms and such), but still try and make time to stop by and look at all the lovely heads of hair once in a while. Anywhoo, I took my braids out and behold-a massive mound o'hair lol. Although my hair felt fuller, I was afraid it hadn't grown much until I pulled on the ends and... Voila! I think I'm seeing progress. I can't compare it to my straight-hair photos because my natural texture is obviously eating up some of the length I've gained. I think I've hit waist. What say you?:pray:http://s867.photobucket.com/albums/ab235/pierrefelixma/Hair%20Growth-10-29-2010/
p.s. Sorry the pics are so darn large-I have to learn how to re-size them.

well done! definitely looks like waist length to me- if only i could be so lucky

[donna'sdaughter]

Yippee! thanks hairobsessed1-and don't worry, I'm sure you'll get to waist and beyond in no time at all!

Lovely hair...I assume you are natural? Either way it looks great - this is always what I picture when I think of true mermaid hair.

[donna'sdaughter]

yep, I'm natural, though I do straighten my hair with a pressing(hot) comb every once in a while. Thank you for the kind words!

[dragonmyst]

I would call that waist length. Your hair is so pretty, I love the texture!

On the re-sizing issue, I have a photobucket account and photobucket has an edit feature for pictures. I'll load up the picture and resize it to the size I want and then save it back on my computer before loading it up here. Hope that helps.

[donna'sdaughter]

thanks dragonmyst for the compliment! I used try and "tame" my hair but have since given up and opted for embracing the 'fro.

[spidermom]

Amazing! You're definitely at waist length.

[donna'sdaughter]

Thanks Spidermom. whoo Buster, donna'sdaughter is going to have to love you from afar cause I'm scarrrreed of snakes. lol

[Intransigentia]

I'd say taht's totally waist! and so lovely and shiny and vibrant on top of that!

[pepperminttea]

Chiming in to agree that it's definitely waist length and, wow! The thickness is incredible! :thud:

[LouLaLa]

Amazing! I bet its hard to grow your hair type that long so even more kudos on getting to waist!

[jeanniet]

I'd say you're there! That's the one frustrating thing about curly hair--seems to take forever to grow. Since coming to LHC I've learned a lot about embracing my curls, which is a good thing, but growth seems sooooo slow. I have to pull it straight sometimes so I can see that it really is growing faster than I think it is.

Your hair is a-mazing! :D

[Chiara]

Congratulations! Your hair looks fantastic :)

[donna'sdaughter]

thank you all for all the wonderful and supportive comments. While growing my hair type and other Afro-textured hair types is relatively similar to growing hair of straighter textures, it is definitely harder to retain the length that people with my hair type get.

[christine1989]

Yep! :) That is clearly at waist. Way to go!

[jojo]

Yup the hair (and wow what thick glossy hair you have too!) reaches your waist, well done!

[lhangel9]

Ur definately at waist length! And your texture is just beautiful :cheese:
