Well its been 2 weeks since I last did my roots and I've got 1/2 cm of growth. Great, you may be thinking, but my hair has followed the same pattern all year. Week 1 maybe 1 mm, week 2 I'm usually about 2 or 3 mm, week 3 up to 1/2 cm and by the end of week 4 I'll hit my 1cm. So I've hit my 1/2 cm a week early. I'm hoping this means I'll get more than my usual 1cm this month. If week 4 brings my usual 1/2cm then anything I grow over this next week will be extra. Even a couple of mm's will be welcome. Oh, and week 1 this month was a no growth, so I've got this growth just over the past week.
Hope this babbling makes sense, I'm tippy tappying through insomnia!!!
Some of the longer tips of my hair pass the towel test, more when wet. I'm hoping to totally pass it dry by January. Super excited! I have already noticed that my bun is slightly bigger and my braid is longer than when I was at shoulder length. I am looking forward to being able to do more intricate hairstyles soon. :D
I keep gravitating towards the waist to tailbone thread because I was in that range for sooo long. But I guess this is my new place!

In the future I'll suck it up and make the FH take my length pictures, because mirror pictures are terrible. But I wanted to check in as a newbie in the shoulder-to-APL range. You seem like a lovely bunch. :blossom:
Hi guys,
I just noticed that it takes about a "year" to grow from shoulder length to APL. :rolleyes: Itīs such an odd stage and the hair doesnīt look good because itīs in between.
Here is a post from Nesoi where she shows her progress pics:
And I noticed that Iīll probably be looking at a year before I reach (if ever) the APL...Quote:

So probably by October maybe Iīll be getting there...It really does take forever and the difference is so minimal or so it seems.
Hey all, checking in as a newbie to this thread! *waves*
I guess you people will have to put up with me here for at least the next year or so ;)
This pic was taken last month

I can't wait to get to APL. I mean, seriously. I cannot wait!

So close to APL!
Jennah, you are right. Obviously it's slightly different on everyone depending on their proportions, but a year seems about average to me. It doesn't seem like it should take so long!
An example thought would be Zesty, who has just rejoined us :) Her hair looks fab in the 'in-between' stage! As does yours, and I think everyone else in this thread has perfectly charming hair! It's all about appreciating every stage, I guess :love:
