Hi everyone!

I'm happy to report that my longest hairs currently measure 26in. with the rest firmly in the 25in. range. I can definately call this BSL now. :cheese:

Happy Growing!

Edit: can you believe it took me a couple of years on here for me to realize I could post in different colors?

Hey, we're in almost the same boat! I measured this morning, and My longest layers are just over 26 inches (but it varies pretty substantially after that). I've still got awhile to go before BSL, though, maybe by the end of the year?

I measured today at 28"! It was nice to be able to update my stats and my siggy :D. I made a vow to measure only every three months, so it's been sitting at 26.5" for awhile now.

The funny thing is...I thought at first that it'd feel so great to be 28" but now I'm sort of like meh... and can't wait to hit 30" (and eventually a solid waist... I thought waist would be 29" but doh...I wasn't considering the fact that I have WAVES that eat up the length so I feel as far from waist as ever).

Measured this morning, the longest bits are at 25", halfway between APL and BSL :D Getting there, slowly but surely!

Just measured at 32" which is waist on me. Far longer than it's ever been. I'm loving it (& fortunately, so is my family).

I am switching over to measuring my hair wet, because that is when it is straightest (and longest). It is now 46" wet. I don't know how much it grew because I measured it dry last month (43.5").

My longest 10 strands are about 26, but they're at waist length for me. I have a tiny torso :)

I measure on the 29th or every month along with taking a new picture. I'm at 24" BSL.

Thank you so much!! It would be great if my hair grew another 1" this month. That would make me a very happy lady.

My hair measured at 19 1/2 inches in March, had layers and legnth trim cut in June and today, I am at 19 1/2 inches again. She cut off a full inch which I know isn't much, but I wish I felt like I made some progress during the last few months.

23. looks like the stress from losing my job last month and the lack of excercise had a severe impact. I hope August finds me at BSL!

Back to 47 inches - again. I trimmed more than an inch 3 days ago. Fortunately it grows pretty fast in the summer so I can trim more to get rid of the thin ends. Oh, how I hate them... :mad:

:justy: This totally sucks. I only gained 1/4" in June. I didn't trim. Hell, I didn't even do much S & D. I took excellent care of my hair and it feels longer. The freakin' tape measure says 1/4" growth :( I measured like 6 times this morning but I couldn't get it to read longer. Color me pissed off :rolleyes:

I just measured the other day and I'm at 36 inches. Of course that is my longest hair and my growing out layers are shorter. I'll even it all up someday, probably at tbl. :)

I'm at 16 3/4 inches. Crazy measuring tape measuring tape measured me at 16 3/4 twice and 17 inches once. So I'm going with the 16 3/4. Only gained 1/4 this month. That's my normal so i should've expected it.

not quite 31.25, so I am going to say still 31" this month.

I am at 42" yeah! With this huge shed I am going through I wasn't sure if it would affect my growth. I gained 3/4 of an inch this month, it could be all the castor oil and EVOO I'm applying to my scalp :confused: I also just started drinking Red Bush tea.:D
I only have an inch to go until my hair is the goal length I set when I first joined :cool:

I'm at 34 inches. I really need to find a way to remember to take my daily vitamins. So far that is what has worked the best in speeding up growth.

Good luck in that last inch! And good luck to everyone else nearing their goals (I only read the last page).

I'm at 29.5" this month! I'm halfway through the no-trims challenge and I should be 6 months away from my short-term goal of waist-length!

I measured yesterday 23,5". I want to ask you, do you measure from your forehead(front hairline) or from the top of yor head? I am still confused about this...:oI measured from the forehead, since I tought it is easier keeping track that way, because you know you always strat in the same point. Any suggestions?

2 cm growth, I'm at 34,25" now.

24 1/2". YEAH BABY!! I normally don't measure until the 29th of every month but I cheated this month. Much to my surprise I've already grown my 1/2" this month. I gained a full inch last month and I'm hoping the same for this month. My hair is growing surprisingly fast. I'm crossing my fingers I'll be waist either by or before May of next year. My fiance wants me to stop there but I want to go 10" more inch'.

Yes, you measure from your hairline to the ends. Here is an article on how to measure your hair: http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/vbjournal.php?do=article&articleid=9. I hope that helps!

Right now, I'm at 20"!

35,5'' Seeing that I trimmed and inch at the end of June, it means that I've grown a whole inch in a month. It looks like summer growth is kicking in!
