Yes, I've been here two years now. Amazing how time flies when you're having fun! And a week ago I posted my 3000th posts - which is another thing to celebrate! :D
And now for the progress pics. This was my length in July 2010

This is my hair last summer - with braid waves!

And this was my length in November last year, when I reached tailbone length

And this is now. I still have a noticeable hemline, but the ends are thinning a bit, and I am looking with longing at my trimming shears. I don't plan on doing any trimming until I reach classic, though.

I am very fond of my hairtoys, and selecting the right hairtoy for the day can be fun

And sometimes that means selecting the right piece of hair weaponry for the day!

Some of my hairtoys are from days of yore - Calaelen sparked my interest in vintage hair combs - here is one of my combs, this one is from the Art Nouveau period

And some of my hairtoys have been made especially for me. Here is one gorgeous example from Grahtoe studios - my Sunrise fork!

Thank you, all, for the lovely compliments! :flower:
The hair axe is the very first axe I bought from Outnumbered Novelties (http://www.etsy.com/shop/OutNumberedNovelties). The contents of his hair armory is ever so cool - and well made, too! :D
For those of you who like the picture with a lot of hairtoys - I had that picture taken for this thread (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/showthread.php?t=47364). Go and have a look - it is ever so fun! :D
