Only makes a little bit of a difference in length with my waves, but I'm getting close!

Woo!! You're so close! Not too much longer now, for sure.

I what? 3rd the imgur rec. I started to use it a couple years ago, and it's been great! All of my albums except one are private, and the upload speed is pretty fast. Plus there no real lag like PB always had. Links are shorter, as well, so if character count matters that's a bonus.

But yeah, photobucket has basically gutted its free accounts. You can upload your photos for like... the printing services and stuff, but they're unable to be hotlinked or hosted elsewhere. And then the cheapest plan just adds more storage, for $60/year. Next highest is $100/year, for 100GB of storage and unlimited linking! Still no hosting, though. To get hosting you need to get the plus 500 account, which is 500GB of storage and unlimited linking and 3rd party hosting* (*Photobucket reserves the right to limit excessive bandwidth usage.), and it's a mere $400/year! All of these are billed annually, so the $6/10/40 per month cost is really moot. What a great deal! I can't wait to use it! :disgust::evil: I took a screenshot if you wanna see!

But yes, it's technically off topic, even if it generally affects everything lol.

Collar Bone length right here. Almost exactly at 12" now, started my hair growth journey in March at 10". I feel like the past 4 months have gone by so slow...I am taking a photo of my hair growth every month and I can see the difference, but it doesn't feel like it's growing that much! This length is such a struggle...

Im at shoulder right now so I understand the struggle. I feel like its not growing at all, I just dyed it because my roots were there so that gave me hope! I think by Feb I will have that next milestone at armpit length! is that the next milestone?

CBL isn't too bad! That's where mine is at (barely heheh), but I'm able to put my hair up pretty easily now!

Ooh, that sounds pretty and useful!

So close! Plus, your hair looks great.

Aliyah3 and Ireland: With you there! Every so often when I look in the mirror I'm surprised by how much its grown, but then it's also disappointing how it just isn't long yet! Plus there's thhe supreme giant flip at the collar. It's such an odd length. Ireland, I hope you can get to APL by Feb.

Lol! Thanks for the recommendation, you too Abralash. Nice hair btw, I don't think it looks dry or messy at all!

I'm still here :waving:

DH measured my hair for me a few days ago and I'm at 18.25. Most days I wear it in a cinnabun held with mini claws.
