Do we really not have a Measure In thread for December yet? I searched and couldn't find one; maybe there is one and I just couldn't find it.
Anyway.....

I'm at 28" and will probably maintain here for a while.

In 2001 my hair was 18" and i was growing out a terrible little baby fringe i'd shaved off :rollin:

As of today... i'm avoiding tape measures until March 2012!

In Dec 2001 I had the highlighted soccer-mom helmet head special, approx 17". :o

In Dec 2011 I think my hair is 33".

(Perhaps we can leave the typo in the title? It's kinda fun! I feel proud of how much further my hair has come in 10 years, rather than a month)

In December 2001, it looks like my hair was about the same length as it is now, but it wasn't curly and there was more of it volume wise.

Now, December 2011, my hair it at 19.5 inches and is curly, so it just hangs to about the nape of my neck.

In 2001 I was a junior in high school and I have NO memory of my hair....probably it was between shoulder and APL with awful bangs.

Now it is 28" and 4.5" away from waist! ( not that I'm counting...) I'm trying to enjoy the journey but it's hard because I want waist length hair SO BAD!

14" according to the standard measurement technique used here... not that any individual hair on my head exceeds 4-5 inches.

Best typo ever! December 2001, I was 10. Probably looked something like this, maybe longer, I'm not sure how old I am here:

December 2001 I had a razor cut on the back and sides and about a 3" crown. Had t get a cut every 3- weeks to keep it that short. Now I'm about 37-38" and hoping for classic someday!

I was approaching my college graduation at this time back in December 2001. My hair length was about the same length it was after my last cut back in April/May which is about 12 inches give or take. My hair was right on top of 17 inches in some photos that I took on November 22. I guess you could call it 17+ inches now.

In December 2001 I shaved my head. In December 2011 it's at 32 inches. Funny how I find myself starting over again...

I have been trimming all new growth for the past several months so I am still at about 44" (44.25').
My DH told me I didn't need to trim anymore :D

ETA: In 2001 my hair was waist length :cool:

In December 2001 I was between waist & hip. Now I'm at 38", I just measured last night. :)

Realized I have really slow growth though. I measured when I joined here in January & I was at 34". Oh well. :)

2001 - my hair was about shoulder length, I think!

2011 - I am determined not to measure until December 22nd.
I started to obsess about measuring my hair too often.

I'm going to wait and get a lovely surprise for Christmas!

I'll pop back here on the 23rd Dec. :)

I just measured last night I'm at 28". I've been at 28" since the summer since I've been maintaining. I'm wondering if I should do one last trim on the full moon this month and not trim in 2011 for my length but only refresh my layers and bangs.

Gothchiq
December 6th, 2011, 01:32 PM
I guess I'd base that decision upon the condition of your ends. How they doing?

SheaLynne
December 6th, 2011, 02:12 PM
Hmmm...in Dec 2001, I was probably about shoulder length, growing out a very layered and permed 'do that came with the chop after ds was born in 2000.

Dec 2011, I'm at 43 inches! Very, very close to classic for the first time in my life and much longer than it has ever been before.

In 2001. . . hmm, I was 7, my hair was probably about lower back length.
December 2011 my hair is 24 inches and almost BSL. :)

Hm, in Dec 2001, my hair was nearly waist length and virgin, though it had kind of a cool ombre effect that just naturally happened.

Today I'm about 19.5 inches. I was hoping to have reached 20 by now, but it'll probably be in Jan, so that's not so bad.

Can I ask the dumb and obvious question of how to measure one's hair length. Does it really need someone to do it for you? I can't seem to manage it on myself.

jojo
December 12th, 2011, 02:22 PM
Well my praying paid off I got a whole inch! now 31"

Well in 2001 I was 6 years old... so my hair was a huge massive poofy bush somewhere between chin and shoulder length. Gross.

Now it's around an inch from APL.

2001: Highlighting to get to blonde from dying it red for years, so it was this weird strawberry kind of color. It was also the longest it'd been since before puberty (BSL). I mostly kept it up with scrunchies.

2011: Taking the mickey out of henna treated hair (Lush) with a purple shampoo (working a little bit more each time). It's just about reaching BSL now -- on the odd occasion when I straighten it it just about hits.

The more things change...

In 2001 I had a super cute short cut. I miss it.

2011 24 inches (first measure in!).

2001, I believe my hair was around Tail Bone Length. But then later I chopped it all off to a short bob.
today I measured it and it's exactly 25 inches long which is officially now BSL for me!!!! Back in April it was APL for me.

I'm at 24"


I thought I was going to cut off 6" on 12/31, but unbiased opinions tell me I have no need to right now (I am growing out dye and apparently, the last application really did match my natural hair color)

2001 my hair was middle of my back and unhealthy. Now my hair is healthy and arm pit length almost bra strap length 7 inches away.

December 13th, 2011, 07:33 AM
In 2001 my hair was probably about the length it is now, maybe a couple of inches longer. Now it's somewhere between 22 and 23.5 inches. I'm in the no measuring for at least 90 days club. ;)
