Hello all, it's been a while since my last post, and i have my "hair anniversary" coming soon so i would like to thank you all for all of your help, tips and tricks.
It's been a long journey 18 months (give or take a few days) of growing my angled bob (razor cut at the back) cut measuring at 10.6 inches in december 2009.

I reached SL in october 2010 measuring at 18.5 inches. My hair always grows faster in the summer and late summer and in the winter my growth slows down. (pic with no flash)

I think i finally reached APL now at 21.6 inches, i still have to grow about 8 inches till i reach my goal but hey i'm celebrating.:cheese:

I'm co-washing once or twice a week with a no-cone conditioner, i don't use leave-in products (because i can't find a good leave-in conditioner or oil where i live), i stopped dyeing my hair a year ago, and i air dry as much as possible.
I trimmed about half an inch in 18 months and got bangs (what a mistake that was) so i think i badly need a trim, i dont't have any split ends but i do need to straighthen the hemline and i'm considering layering my hair or at least the last 3 inches of it...what do you think? I have wurly hair that looks like i have lot's of volume but i'm i/ii more on the i side now since i'm shedding like crazy.
Thank you LHC :)

Congrats your hair is so lovely.
In regards to layers, have a think about it for 2 weeks, then if you still want them get them! And hey if you then don't like them you can always grow them
out!

wonderful growth progress :) In my opinion, you should gain a little more length before you go for layers, like maybe bsl?

You have really beautiful hair. Your progress is amazing. Do NOT trim! You have no damage and your hemline looks perfect.
