Non-Trimmers Measure-In

I have not trimmed the whole year and consider now if I could stand in 2014 without trimming

I think I should join, I don't have a habit of measuring my hair evry month, but I want to make it regullary ( I always forgot about it after month or two..). This thread will help for sure :) My hair now have about 27,5", but I'll make a measure at 1st December. And I'll use only S&D method to avoid splited and destoryed ends.

I measured when I joined.Need to do it better when wet but roughly 28 inc. Havent trim for couple years or even a SD as I never thought of that.So I plan to never trim aa thats normal for me but I will SD at some point. I havent been to a salon for over 20 years..like to control my own hair.Do my ds12 too.He has shoulder hair too..bless.Nice to meet you all.I post pics when I can .

In june was 26" now at 29".1 last trim was June going till next July.

As of today, I'm around 24" (give or take a few since my curls shrink differently on different days), which on me is just below APL. My minimum goal is waist, which is around 33" (I have a long torso and fairly low waist).

Wow. I'm gonna quote myself because I totally forgot that I posted here. I haven't trimmed and I'm now around 26" when curly. I've been feeling like I haven't grown at all, but clearly that's not true! Very happy to find this out! :toast:

Thanks bunzfan! I really love the braided bun in your signature picture, btw. Do you have a tutorial for it? (Not that I'm long enough yet, but a girl can dream! :) )

October: 27 inches. December: 28 inches

Yay!

Drum roll. It has been a year. I grew a total of 5 inches. What's next? A trim and then start again for the new year. I might only trim off an inch and take it from the top. Yay!!!! Hoping that 2014 will bring another 5 inches.

1st May: 22.4"
1st October: ~25"
13th December: 26.3" :D
