I have no clue... i was thinking about cutting it *again!* and then noticed that i may be at tailbone? now i dont know if i should cut, or hold out for classic.

i think i just havent liked how my hair has been since i stopped wearing it in rollers at night... now that it's longer it's a pain in the butt... but my older pics certainly look nicer then lately. course, i stopped using the rollers because my hair is oilier now then it used to be... but that's another thread :p

Looks like TB to me! I think your hair is gorgeous in both those pics. I can understand why you might want to cut, but I'd say don't give up! Maybe you could do regular micro-trims or small cuts (1/2" or less) to start evening up without losing much length.

awww thank you! that's kinda what i am leaning towards... maybe just at least to clean up the ends cause they are so uneven and all over the place!

I'd say TB too and very pretty... when I was at that length even a very small trim could improve my detangling efforts so much that it felt like I had all new hair.

I'd definitely said tail bone! However, I were you I'd leave it and not cut until I got to around classic (if that's a length you're thinking you've like) and then even up the ends, keeping it around that length. Your hair IS gorgeous, so I think you'd look lovely with classic length.

:thud: Your hair is gorgeous! I cant wait until I hit this length! Definitely TB.

In the second pic it seems like theres a chunk of hair on the left side that is a bit longer than the rest, but I dont see it in the first pic so it may just be the way youre standing or something. If this is the case, or if your ends need help, you could do microtrims for a while and see if that helps with whatever is making you want to cut, but if you are going for classic, dont take that much off right now!

Your hemline is a bit uneven and fairytaled, but I think it works well on you. I actually think a blunt hemline would make your hair look weird somehow.

I absolutely agree with this. I get my hair trimmed every 6 months, after about 4 months I can feel a bit of a difference in my hair (apparently others can't) but it starts to feel a bit 'wooley' to me, after my trim my hair is extraordinarily soft all the way to the tip and the comb slides through so much easier. I get 1/4" trimmed when I get it trimmed.

Wow, it's at least tailbone and so beautiful! :flowers: I say go for Classic, with some microtrims along the way.

Definitely at tailbone! I'd also suggest doing small trims and go for classic! :)

I was thinking a little shorter than tailbone, but who am I to blow against the wind?
Congratulations.

Thanks so much everyone! I can always count on coming here and feeling better about my hair when it starts to get on my nerves!

I think I will just do a micro trim for now, and see if I can get any closer to classic... i hear that sometimes at certain lengths hair is easier to deal with, so here's hoping classic is easier then TB.

I need to do something about that chunk! in some pics it's on the left, and sometimes it's on the right... i think it just falls weird, but every time i cut it, i still get it... it's like one clump grows faster then the rest


Noooo, that's not TB, it's buttcrack!! Looks awesome!
LOL, that made me laugh. We should make that an official length :D

I actually agree that TB is an inch or so more, unless your pants are very low. ;)

Regardless, your hair looks beautiful! I love the color in those pics!

I also think it's a couple of inches shy of tailbone. Either way, it's gorgeous. I love your color! :thumbsup: If you're not sure what you want to do with it, you could always maintain the current length while you think about it. Or just let it grow while you think, and cut back when you feel like it.

I thought that length was called hip length and tailbone was further down? I'm not an expert so... Congratulations :D
I'm at BCL now (butt crack length) :lol:
