How Long Is Your Hair? (waist & longer)

[paper]

:hmm: There was SO many that voted waist or longer in my first poll, I made this one for you with more options.

Thanks to Jojo for helping me with the options. :flowers:

[Nightshade]

Tailbone here, and happy to stay there for awhile. After I get the last of the damage grown out and some of the darker henna cut off, I may entertain the thought of fingertip, though :ponder:

[Guenever]

Also TB - for about a year.. And after minimizing taper I'm off to mid-thigh/fingertip! (50")

[AJoifulNoise]

I'm calling mine hip length. Even though I swore I'd leave that milestone out. :p

[Belisama]

Recently hit waist here, but my goal is knee. So here's hoping. :)

[julya]

I'm a bit past classic length here, and I'm hoping for at least 6 to 12" of length without too much taper. I'll just have to wait and see though.

[SweetPea88]

I'm right at waist currently (when wavy!) and will be maintaining for a little while. I think I may see tailbone in the future, though...:wink:

[spidermom]

I voted hip, but I'm a little past that on a straight day, barely that on a curly day.

[Finoriel]

I voted for thigh :) I reached fingertip and plan to maintain there for a while until my hemline thickens up a bit.

[OR Cowgirl]

Not quite to fingertip but well past classic! I've thought about trimming but I really want to see if I can make my goal so no substantial trimming until I hit 50 inches! Then I think I'll maintain for a while and let the new growth from last years shed try to catch up.

[janaana]

I cut mine off level with my wrists twice a year as I know that it's easy to tie up at that length and it won't get so long that I end up sitting on it before the next cut!

[ohjezebel]

I'm at a solid tailbone - that's tailbone at wet, dry, and curly. I'm probably going to have to cut a few inches soon, as old damage is getting too full of splits to be worth saving.

[justgreen]

I voted TB, but it's between TB and butt . My shorter sides have finally reached waist! They've been growing good, and the back length has grown a bit slower.

[Leisha]

I'm pretty much at hip length right now :)

[truepeacenik]

I voted TB, but it's between TB and butt . My shorter sides have finally reached waist! They've been growing good, and the back length has grown a bit slower.
then you definitely need a new sig pic!

[harpgal]

I am at mid-thigh (50 inches) and holding for a while. Then it is onward to knee.

[jojo]

I voted hip, but I'm a little past that on a straight day, barely that on a curly day.

holy moly, when was it you cut March? you gone from waist to hip in 14 weeks! that has to be a record. Well done!

[jenna]

i voted waist. it was at tailbone for a while and i'm trying to decide if i want it to TB again or even something like classic. i've been entertaining the idea of classic (with fairytale ends maybe?) for a few days now. the longest it's ever been is TB so something like classic is pretty dramatic for me to think about.

[Ndnlady]

I am right at hip length right now but my hair has not had any growth really last month, probably due to stress, because I have found more hair falling out then usual.:( But I want to get to at least tb so crossing my fingers and hoping to get there!

[socks]

Thanks for making a poll for everyone at waist and beyond! My hair is swiftly approaching mid-calf.

[Magrat]

My hair is waist-lenght.

[AprilElf]

I voted tailbone, though I'm a bit past that now - but not quite 'butt length'.

[jel]

I voted waist, although the tips are now past it - but I don't know where my hips are! :silly:

[harley mama]

I voted hip length. I hope to be at TB by the end of the year.

[paper]

Thanks for making a poll for everyone at waist and beyond! My hair is swiftly approaching mid-calf.


Your welcome. :)

[vindo]

Still butt length..I should trim less often..:rolleyes:

[eresh]

Knee+, so I voted calf, though I don't feel I'm really at that length yet...

[kissedbyfyre]

I'm a few inches shy of classic so I said butt length. I don't even know if I'm sitting on it yet since it's always up, hrm.....

[flapjack]

My hair has blunt ends at the middle of my hips. Not sure what my length goal is, anymore.

[Samara Morgan]

I'm at tailbone but would like it longer, however for the moment I'm trying to thicken the ends up... :)

[mitabird]

I'm currently at tail bone length and I hope to grow it to classic some day.

[Boon]

Butt lenght

[akka naeda]

I'm at knee at the moment and debating whether to thicken the ends or allow it to grow a bit longer.

[starfire]

TB for now... debating a trim to even up my hemline or letting it grow so I can see what terminal is sooner!

[LongForLife]

Mine is butt length. :)

[DaveDecker]

Calf. I was at ankle in January but want thicker ends. Time for another trim for me (smaller trim than last time)!

[Alethia]

Mine has a reasonable number of strands at classic, but about 2/3 just short of that, and my hemline is decidedly wispy and thin now due to shedding, so I put butt length. I don't think it's going to get much longer now so I'm close to terminal.

[Haith]

Just reached waist, but going for hip or tailbone. We'll see when we get there!

[Sarahmoon]

My hair is closer to tailbone than to hip at the moment, so voted tailbone.

[Altocumulus]

I recently cut from TB to hip to get rid of thin ends, now growing again.

[soprano]

Just cut off about 10" last week, so I'm back to hip length. It feels so short!

I used to think that I would grow it out and see where terminal length is on me, but now I'm not so sure. I'm really enjoying it again at this length.

[Lady Godiva]

Ah, much better poll!

Floor.

[Amoretti]

I'm a bit past classic, but only the wispy ends. I prefer a thicker hemline visually but am not cutting it blunt because tapered ends are easier to tuck into buns.

[Chamomilemaiden]

Hip. Tailbone when wet, but I need to cut it to thicken my ends, but I can´t still decide, I´ll probably wait how much it grows during summer.

[moon-flower]

Mine is currently at an inch below my knees, but it is so thin at the ends! I don't cut my hair, but hopefully in a few years, the short, new hairs will grow and it will thicken up. I really don't care if it grew another inch. But I wish it were thicker, so I'll just have to wait and see...

[HeavenlyTresses]

Just recently reached the tops of my ankles. Weird tickles on the tops of my feet when I lower my head :) I always think it's our cat looking for attention.

[Starr]

I put tailbone, but I'm now about an inch past that.

[Teazel]

I've been at classic for two years, gradually trimming out dratted layers.

After seeing Stagecoach's gorgeous sig pic today, for the first time I feel like I really want to go longer. I think I will try for thigh-length! :D

[shrimp]

Classic - but only just with fairytale (partly artificial from old layers) ends

[Sam-I-Am]

Past tailbone and not yet classic - I guess that's butt-length!

[camara]

I voted butt length, but I think I´m at classic really. Now I´m going for thigh length.

[Loreyanne_H]

I'm almost (something like an inch) from waist...

[paper]

Bumping this up

[dor3girl]

Mine is closer to waist than tailbone--it was 32" last time I measured--will update in Sept. '08

[Ashley]

I'm at waist, with hip as a 6-8 month goal in sight! :)

[Luonnotar]

I'm halfway between waist and hips

[plainjanegirl]

I'm a little past waist.
Not sure what the next milestone is, guess I need to find the article to read huh.

[mira-chan]

Thigh length and staying there for a little while.

[CurlyNinja]

I'm just barely at waist now, and past waist when pulled straight.

[Xi]

I'm at TBL (with fairytale ends).

[Shanarana]

Gee, with all the choices longer than waist....I feel like I have a bob.

[Kaeri]

I voted classic. Had about 2 inches cut off the other day but I'm still about that length. been wondering if I should go back to waist length hair and stay there as it tangles less at that length than it does now - and until i master some updo's my plait keeps getting caught on my chair at work :(

[Arniky]

waist seems to be leading at the moment?

[marajade]

I am in between waist and hip, so I picked waist? :)

[Rhea]

Hip . But I need to cut it to thicken my ends (all 3 month 1cm/0.39") .

[Sherri]

I am so close to hip. I only like an inch or so.

[Anje]

Tailbone-ish. The ends are an inch or two past, but I'm still on the top portion of the bottom, so probably not "butt length" yet.

The last few days I've noticed that loose hair is getting in the way when I put on pants and try to get my belt threaded through, so it's far enough past that length that tilting my head or leaning a bit no longer gets the hair out of the way. (I may need to start putting it up before I get dressed!)

[lilmisspicky126]

Hip. I'm going to cut it back to waist in the next few days though.

[LittleOrca]

Tailbone here, with hopes to be classic by December.

[LHGypsyRose]

I am slightly past finger tip so I picked thigh.

[HairColoredHair]

I'm at just about knee, so that's what I voted....

Gonna grow until it stops or I trip on it, I guess.

[82exoticbeauty]

Right now is hip length! going on tailbone on between August-September 2009 - Classic about November-December 2009!

[slz]

...............................

[MadHatter]

I'm at hip.

[ericthegreat]

I want to meet each and everyone one of you who voted! :D

I'm ecstatic to see so many people here with at least waist length hair! Currently, my ends come down over my butt.

[Coriander]

I'm smack in the middle of tailbone.

I have about 5 - 6 inches more until classic.

[pradabacon]

Hip for me. Grow, hair! Grow!!! http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll23/hootietoot/lol-1.gif

[Laylah]

sigh...I'm only at waist. =[ But looking back at some old pictures I'm happy with the progress...

[Feenzauber]

Well, waist at the moment. Only.
But much more to come.:cool:

[Irishred]

I am somewhere near mid thigh. I have not measured in months and I am not positive exactly where my hair falls. Beyond classic now. I am considering trimming back to classic and holding there for post baby re-growth to catch up.

[daydreamer]

Waist for me! I might hang out here awhile or at hip to deal with past damage... it does get quite tangly down there.

[lindaton]

Between butt and classic with a decent straight hemline. I still havent gotten a picture up yet. Hope to soon.
Linda

[AmyJorgensen]

I guess I am at hip. I am definitely a few inches past waist (sorry no pic...I have a hard time posting pics, especially in my album) but I don't feel like am at legitimate tailbone yet. Is hip the top of the pelvic bones or what?

[Bereft]

I'm just a couple inches past waist when wet. When dry it sits just above waist.

[Jinx2234]

My hair is tailbone when wet or the curl is combed out. With the curl, the longest strands are just reaching tailbone, but the majority is around waist level.

[krn2891]

I'm at tail bone. I'm hoping for classic. We will see what happens.

[Fireweed]

I put butt, as I am past TB and not yet classic.

[JamieLeigh]

Wow! This poll was started over a year ago, and it still is vote-able. :D I voted classic, since my ends touch the tops of my legs - I'm about an inch down past my butt right now. :cheese:

It's cool to look back over this poll and see where people were a year ago, and to see how and if their goals have changed. Who else besides Lady Godiva voted floor? I see there are 2 votes in that category, but I only saw her post. I apologize if I've overlooked the second. :)

[sweetestday]

I voted TB. That's where my hair is now. Usually once it hits my tailbone, my husband trims it up to waist length for me. I'm always torn between letting it grow more, or trimming it up. We'll see... maybe I'll just see how far it gets this time. :)

[darkwaves]

Today, my hair is halfway between hip and TB. I voted hip.

[Carrie Ingalls]

My hair is at ankle length and I'm keeping it there for the time being while I pay more attention to it and continue to learn what it likes.

[Angharad]

At the moment it is a little beyond waistlenght, but not hiplenght yet. My goal is kneelenght, but my guess is when I get there I want to go further down!!!

[Iylivarae]

Butt length, it is between tailbone and classic.

[Garnetgem]

I voted TB as the longest part is that long...hoping the rest will catch up soon then i will cut a straight hem line to help thickness.

[spirals]

I voted waist because that's where it is when dry and curly. Wet it is at hip.

[Sarahlabyrinth]

I was naughty and voted Classic, I am close to it now and classic sounded better than butt length. That's my story and I'm sticking to it ;) Actually I probably am classic when wet, I should check.

[parkmikii]

I'm currently at BCL

[catamonica]

My hair is at hip. It won't grow more than that. But that's okay. I'm happy with it.

[Groovy Granny]

Waist + and closing in on hip in the next month or so; that is my final goal....really :eyebrows:

[Whirled_peas]

I misunderstood the question at first, my hair is to my mid back.

[TatsuOni]

About hip, but it's time for my six month trim so it will soon be a little shorter for a while.

[Garnetgem]

I have just reached classic this summer well the longest part of it anyway...

[Iamsiam]

Past waist, not yet tailbone... There should be a "kinda in your bum crack" option 😜

[Kat-Rinnè Naido]

I am currently 4cm from hip.

[Sarahlabyrinth]

Mine is currently thigh length. 7 inches until knee.

[Groovy Granny]

Waist + and closing in on hip in the next month or so; that is my final goal....really :eyebrows:

Today 4/22/17:
I cut back to waist TWICE in the past year.
THIS is my final goal....my 'sweet spot' in the 1960's ....and now again in my 60's :o

[Siri]

Waist, where it seems to be stuck. :?

[Panedora]

mine is at or almost at waist! but its in layers so it still feels way to short for me

[maybe sparrow]

Waist, but I am high-waisted.

[lapushka]

I was classic when I voted for this poll. And I never answered in this thread. :o

I am hip+ now, obviously I cut back (last November).

[Cg]

Two inches from tailbone, blunt hemline.

[MoonRabbit]

I am Waist+.

[littlestarface]

I am mid-thigh.

[Aredhel]

Right at the top of my buttcrack. :p

[Henrietta]

I love the "butt" option, which is where I belong, too. It's no longer TBL, not yet classic, this territory needs a name! :D

[bparnell75]

Me too, I am at butt and wondered what to call it. I am pretty close to what I want to be my happy spot. I do not want to be able to actually sit on the hair just have it touch the chair when I sit. Besides it is getting pretty hard to brush wile styling and much longer will be logistically much harder.

[mermaid lullaby]

Butt length for me too, and I want it to touch the chair when I sit.

[GoatLady]

I'm at waist.

[SandyBottom]

Solid thigh, still about 2" from KL

[lapis_lazuli]

About an inch past the floor now and maintaining here.

[foreveryours]

Wet it extends down to about mid calf.

[Bri-Chan]

Voted classic because I'm closer to that than to the previous milestone.

[tuanyiji]

Currently my racers have passed classic and I’m approaching fingertip length in 1 or 2 months.

[FlowerMoonFairy]

I out hip length but I am past that and am about 2 inches from butt crack length haha ;) I originally thought tailbone and butt crack were the same but that’s another story haha. I’m on my way to grow it to terminal length :ohhh

[FlowerMoonFairy]

Also sorry for the typos :cheese: haha

[LadyArwen]

My Hair got to classic in early 2021 , then I chopped it to hip then waist - totally regret it - I want to be a fairytale mama now. I am slowly regrowing to classic length again right now I am at mid bottom length - then who knows after that what I will do - not planning on a chop off for quite some time

[Natalina]

I voted Classic because that's where it lies rather solid, though scraggly, but it mostly rests on Classic. Wet it's hitting Thigh, though.

[RustyAl]

Hair is waist length now. Hope to get to hip length one day

[tuanyiji]

Currently my racers have passed classic and I’m approaching fingertip length in 1 or 2 months.

Update I am officially at fingertip length now.

[lapis_lazuli]

Update I am officially at fingertip length now.

Congratulations, tuanyiji, that's huge! :) Fingertip is such an interesting length, as a lot can change once it starts growing out of your reach.

[foreveryours]

Congratulations, tuanyiji, that's huge! :) Fingertip is such an interesting length, as a lot can change once it starts growing out of your reach.

2X. That is a HUGE barrier to cross successfully. IMHO the hugest :p

Thank you both, last November my hair end end touched the mat for the first time when I sat down, now the end of my loose braid touches the mat.
I’m now in the 2-week rule program, debating whether I should maintain at CL or FTL for a thicker hemline before I go on for my knee. I won’t do anything at the moment, still bun it up every day, maybe my mind will be clearer after two weeks.

[SandyBottom]

Congrats on FTL! That's a major one!

[shelomit]

Update I am officially at fingertip length now.

Yippee! That's a biggie in my opinion. I feel like I had to to wayyy more adjusting to my routine at fingertip than I had either before or since (one's arms are only so long, lol).

[tuanyiji]

Thank you, I didn’t realize it was such a big deal until you guys pointed it out, maybe I am just desensitized after so many months here. One of my dream hair shots is to take a photo with a thick long braid held by my extended arm on the side, that is Haartraum’s signature pose and I think many long hairs have done it as well. My fairytail ends are too sparse at the moment to make an impressive braid, so thickening the hemline would be one way to achieve that dream.
