Re: Calling all who are growing shoulder to APL!
I'm juuust starting to grow beyond shoulder length. It's still there but now it hangs long enough behind them to stay behind my shoulders if I lean forward a bit. But if I go further it spills right over my shoulders and gets in the way again. :D So close yet sooo far.
Re: Calling all who are growing shoulder to APL!
I was excited this morning to see that I could make my first real Cinnabun. My hair has never been this long in my adult life.

But you all (I'm addressing to all Americans) must think rowie that is soooo small "Show me Bigger!".
Ok I had to prepare for this because it seems like in American culture we're always looking for Bigger! Hence why we Americans come up with slogans "Think Big"
Have a big blast weekend trying the sock bun!
Rowie, it's reasons like this that I absolutely adore you! :D If you and your boo ever come to Finland, you will definitely have a place to stay for your visit! :flower:
I have a question for everyone who can do the lazywrap or cinnabun....what do you do with your ends??!! Mine refuse to stay tucked under, and just slide out, eventually taking the rest of my hair with them! What am I missing?

If it's long enough it will stay tucked under if it's not slippery on wash day. Lazy wrap: If I don't start high enough on my head then it's not long enough and it just falls out. For a cinna bun try a spin pin, they have short ones
Yours may take a while longer though. You are much thicker than me. Just the price you pay for thick lovely hair.
Re: Calling all who are growing shoulder to APL!
So where is apl on everyone? I think it's 24 on me. So 5 1/2 inches to go. I'm 5'5" tall by the way.

I'm really bad at measuring my hair... I think it's at about 20" right now, and it's about an inch and a half away from the towel, so APL should be about 21.5" - 22"

Thanks for the tips, ravenheather! I think I just have to accept that it'll be a while before my hair is long enough for those. Maybe I'll try a sock bun :)

I'm not sure, since I don't measure...it would drive me nuts :D But I do know that I'm 157cm tall, which seems to be 5'1". So, I'm short :p
Re: Calling all who are growing shoulder to APL!
I'm 5'5 and APL for me is 22 inches.
Re: Calling all who are growing shoulder to APL!
I had a feeling mine would be longer than some others. I have a long torso. Well if I ever have hair past classic my markers will be quicker since my legs are short.
