I am on my second month of not looking at my length or growth.. It's fun when you have a long way to go to reach your first milestone,, but when your close but not there it feels like torture, so I choose not to look... lol :)

Can I call this APL you think??

It seemed to take forever to get from jaw-length to collarbone, and it did, b/c I kept trimming it and lost 3 inches in a year. I decided to ignore it starting in June and now it is solidly below my collarbone, which to me is success. I would have been at APL by now had I not trimmed, but I am no longer impatient b/c it doesn't seem short to me. My goal is BSL at the most, which should be about a year. I'm not trimming anymore b/c I like non-blunt ends, so I can just ignore it now. YAY!!!!!!
SlightlySoprano, I would definitely call that APL if my hair was looking like yours! :) Congrats! :D
Future APL-ian joining the thread!-- And yes, I too would call that APL, SlightlySoprano, kudos!
My hair seemed to jump down my neck from ear- to shoulder-length, and now it's just hanging out...*pout* I have a ways to go...and I measure when my hair is wet so I can count more length, lol, so my numbers are self-deceiving. About a month ago I casually assumed (maybe even posted on here???) I would be at BSL by mid-June...what was I thinking?!!?! LOL. Now I realize APL is even a stretch for six months. I think it's about 21 ish inches, dry, for me.
Hey Lilli, how much time did it take to get to collarbone from shoulder-tops for you?
Thank you guys for the wonderful support! Graduating to the APL - BSL thread now... Hope to see you there soon! :blossom:
It's funny how my hair seems like it's still shoulder lenght when it's actually halfway to the APL. I wish summer would come soon, it really could be APL by then. :)
Question for those of you who have hair at least halfway between shoulder and APL- do you mentally still consider your hair shoulder-length? True shoulder length for me is around 17" and APL is 22-23" and I'm at roughly 21." Getting close to APL but I still have lots of people tell me they love my new "shoulder length cut" even though it was at my shoulders months ago. :(
