Non-Trimmers Measure-In

- The thread for LHCers without/that hate/that can't find scissors^^ you pick..
I felt like something was missing from the Polls and Projects-forum.. so I'm restarting the trimmers/non-trimmers threads, originally posted by Spidermom.. :D

Yay! I really missed these threads! :cheese: May I suggest that those who can edit their posts go back to their original post to add new measurements. I think that was done in the old threads to make it easier to follow each person's growth progress.

I'm a non-trimmer, going for terminal. My last trim was on December 23, 2007. I only do S&D.

My measurements:
January 1st: 31" waistlength
February 1st: 31.75" (+0.75")
March 1st: 32.25" (+0.5")
April 1st: 32.75" (+0.5")
May 1st: 33.25" (+0.5")
June 1st: 33.5" (+0.25")
July 1st: 33.75" (+0.25")
July 31st: 33.75" (no gained length)

As my lately slow growth and stalling seems to be caused by breakage, I will have to start trimming until my old damage is gone. As my final goal still is terminal length, I will one day go back to non-trimming, though.

Hurray! I was wondering if this thread would come back. I'm a non-trimmer for life and so I am going for terminal. I don't cut my hair for reasons of faith.

My measurements so far:

October 2007 28"
November 2007 29"
December 2007 30"
January 2008 31"
February 2008 32"
March 2008 33"
April 2008 33.75"
May 2008 34.25"

Trimmed quite a bit in June 2008. No longer a non-trimmer. *bows out of the thread quietly*

I hope its ok, if I post here.
I would like to start measuring regularly to keep me motivated.



April: 55 cm (21.5")
May: 58 cm (22.8")
June: 59 cm (23.2")
July: 59 cm (23.2") I got a little scissor happy when I cut in my bangs and trimmed maybe 2 cm off my length. It seems like I trimmed off all my new growth. It was stupid and I won't do it again.
August: 61 cm (24'')

I will switch over to the trimmers tread.

I am a non-trimmer, but i measure yearly. Last year (2007) i got 7.5 inches.

I never measure monthly i just find it obsessive:)

I usually just assume ill get 6 inches that way i wont be dissapointed but suprised.

The only purpose i see in measuring hair is a yearly goal tactic other than that it seems pointless and obsessive.

I'm a non-trimmer simply because I KNOW I'd mess it up!!!! :) My last salon trim was a year ago. As for length...I haven't measured lately....I guess I should!

Non-trimmer out of laziness and fear of people with scissors. I love to see terminal but am taking it one landmark at a time. My most recent measurements:

Feb 34.5"

March 35.25"

April 35.75"

I trimmed in Mid February, but I am now a non trimmer, because I am not trimming for at least a year now.
March ~ 22.5 inches (Going for waist)

Well I'm gonna give a short hairtrim history.

In November 2005 I had 1" trimmed.
In early June 2006 I had 2" taken off.
In late June 2007 I had 1" taken off.
This June I plan to get at least a short trim.

Right now my hair is at 'almost' 49". Last June, it was 46" AFTER my trim, so in these past 10 months I've only grown 3". :( My hair seems to grow faster if I trim just a tad off every 3-4 months or so.

2008
April 3 @ 48.75"
May 3 @ 50" 1.25 growth spurt!
June 3 @ 50"
July 3 @ 51" 1" of growth!

Started at 16.5 inches in April 2007 and this month I am at 23.25 inches. 6.75 inches in one year without trimming.
