The towel test is when you compare your hair length to where a towel wrapped under your arms hits. Many consider the top edge of the towel to be a marker of APL.
Speaking of which, here is mine. So close!

Sorry for the double post, I used the wrong URL for the image, and I guess I can't edit yet.

Suortuva I found that text tutorial thread! It's here!
fhairyqueen oooh you're getting there! And your hemline is quite thick and very nice! SL to APL is such a slog, I'm with you on feeling like never reaching APL. And I'm actually finally almost there! It still feels like foreeever! I'll have been in this thread for nearly a full year before I move to the next one! I just realized that! I did have a pretty big trim (like 2.5"), but still!
Mafmi you're so close!! Closer than I am, I think! I'm not going to take a picture though :laugh: Don't want my hopes to either go up or be dashed! I'll stick with assuming that April is when I'll move to APL to BSL.
I think I'll definitely be there by April as well, maybe by March if I'm lucky! I can't wait to "level up," lol.Quote:

Mamfi, I think in about a month your hair will be touching that towel (if you stretch it you are probably already there, but it's your personal decision when you call it);
Well elfs, I guess it's congratulations for you then! I bet it was a nice surprise :)
That's pretty clever! I need to try that too, I know I'm not even close though.Quote:

Thank you! I always seem to take my hair pictures on the days when my scalp is all oily, maybe I'll remember to take a freshly washed photo someday :pQuote:
