emilylightening- It looks like you're there to me!
cat11- Your's is a little more difficult to call obviously. Have you tried the towel test thing? I'm thinking about doing that just to see exactly how much farther I have to go.
Is that where you put a towel under your armpits to get the length line??
I just went to the bathroom and did that and the hair reached a little past the edge of the towel in the front and in the back too. Maybe I'm done!!!! Well, with this goal. I'm thinking yes if I passed the towel TEST, since it is test after all
cat11- Passed with flying colors I would say!
I just took a look and have somewhere between 2" and 3" to go. Darn this long neck and torso of mine! If, by some miracle, I am able to keep up my monthly 1" of growth I should be there before long. I'm shooting for the end of March but we'll see.
^1 inch a month! Thats awesome, thats a whole foot a year!If I could grow hair that fast I would probably be nearing waist in 2015.
I am officially graduating from the thread! It has been nice, people :)
Judging by my roots, i am one more centimeter closer to APL.. Can't wait till i reach it.. I've been stuck at this shoulder and below lenght forever....
Thank you, it is pretty soft! :)Quote:

The only thing we have going for us, is that our hair is technically longer at "shorter" milestones, and we can do more with it at the "shorter" milestones. [Such as being able to do styles that are typically considered APL styles at our awkward not-yet-APL length]Quote:

I have super thick hair with a bit of layering so braids are basically impossible at this point. My hair feels 10x heavier now than it did at waist length! Has anyone else had this problem?
@emilylightning: wow, great progress! You are pretty much there, I would say!
I'm really happy to see everyone is growing so nicely! Things are going great with my hair growth too -- I'm really happy with being allllmost at APL too! I should be there by late spring I think :)
While I wait I’ve been pampering my hair and trying out some new products! Yesterday I tried cassia obovata for the first time! I was nervous to try something unfamiliar but I ordered it from Henna Sooq online and tested it out. I mixed 100g with some warm water and a bit of melted coconut oil. I let it sit for about an hour, and then spread the mix over my hair for 5 hours.
I absolutely love the results. It really does make your hair feel shinier and thicker! I have medium blondish hair and I haven’t noticed a colour change (they say it may add yellow tones). It’s so shiny that it looks like gold, so maybe that’s what they mean!
So yeah, I would recommend it! Henna Sooq seems to have a good quality organic product as well.
