I hate this length I wish it would grow! I am just about at APL but I"m going to trim back 1/2 inch to take off more damage I haven't trimmed at all since March I believe! My hair needs it. I hope I'm APL by Christmas though :( I really should be.

I hate this length I wish it would grow! I am just about at APL but I"m going to trim back 1/2 inch to take off more damage I haven't trimmed at all since March I believe! My hair needs it. I hope I'm APL by Christmas though :( I really should be.
Here's my beginning!
I'm currently starting with hair that is just brushing my shoulders, and I think that if I take care of it well, I can get around APL by December. Time to buy coconut oil, and eat better!
This time I am DETERMINED not to cut it no matter how much scissor itch I get.
I'll see if I can get some pictures with my not so great webcam soon.
Finally was able to get a photo!
Could someone also help me with hair typing? I'm not sure what to call my waves.

I started a thread for our group in the mane forum. Here's the linky: http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/...29#post2261929
I have a milestone to share with you guys! No picture because my hair's drying in my Aquis microfiber hair turban (which is awesome, by the way....my mom found it at TJ Maxx).
I've been growing out my second venture into getting a short angled bob since last September. First I had the angled bob in May 2011, then in September I had it shaped into an angled funky shag/lob kinda thing, and I've been growing ever since. No trims since, and I'm being kinder to my hair by hennaing, and less washing and blowdrying.
Anyway...the milestone is....
.... that I can finally use both of my medium and large Flexi-8 clips again! I can use my medium for french twists and the large if I do a bun (holds even better if it's damp). Some small pieces stick out a little bit if it's dry, but it won't be much longer before everything stays inside the bun.
I should post a picture when my hair's about 50% dry. :)
Yes, if you draw an imginary line between your armpits and you hair is at or past it, then you are APL. There is an APL to BSL thread that you can join. Try searching via google since the LHC search doesn't like small words. Congratulations!Quote:

Congratulations on the Flexi-8s! I can almost use my medium with a twist but it doesn't stay. All in for very long. Right now I have to make do with a strong plastic claw clip.Quote:

Darn this shrinkage!! It's like 3 inches longer when it's wet and straight.
