well I said I was at APL....but then I cut off no more then 1" and started measuring in natural (wavy-curly) texture...so Id say I fit in here...I will be trimming this year...no predetermined amount or timeframe, though I would like to reach full, without a doubt APL this year(LTIEB* Longer Then Iv'e Ever Been), which is about another 3-4" (I gained 8 last year with NO trimming*pulled straight;or flatironed to longest hairs)
Im really starting to like my ponytails lately, they look so thick and full, no longer short and stumpy, though I cant do many elegant updo's or anything Im at a point where I enjoy wearing it down, in a pony or in a sock bun and thats it...I know buns will come and I cant wait, but lately my ponytails are looking elegant enough for the time being.
My hair is about the same length as yours now (measuring the longest part). I have 3-4 more inches to APL so it should be about 6-8 months however I have seen some impressive growth with horsetail and more thickness with biotin.
In my opinion, the shoulder/APL length is the hardest to deal with simply because it never seems to grow! It seems like my hair has been shoulder length for months! Although I know it has grown a lot. :)
Here is a picture from December , at around 15.5 or 16 inches (i think).

My hair is just now hanging around my collar bones. I'm okay with the length right now as I'm hitting up the gym a lot and going swimming. As long as it keeps growing as it has been I'm happy.
Hmmm, maybe I should remeasure? I measured my back layers as 18", and I KNOW they are past collarbone. Maybe I have a short neck? If I ask DH to measure my hair, I think he would think I'm nuts. I have one of those paper tape measures from IKEA. How is everyone else measuring?
Exactly, I have the same impression. Sometimes I think that my hair will never rech APL. I can't wait when they will be that length... And then... just longer and longer :DQuote:

Im currently touching my collar bone, and i have about 4in or so to get to APL but when i look at pictures it seems like 50in:rant:!!
I know what you mean. It seems as though I have been between shoulder and APL forever, even though I know it is getting longer.
I think for me it would help to have a mini goal between CBL and APL, such as, SBL (shoulder blade length), or BBL (breastbone length). Just something to have in between so it feels like I am going somewhere. Does this make sense?
curlylocks-- agreed!
how about the "halfway between collarbone & armpit length?"
:laugh:
theres not really a good distinguishing feature there, is there?:o
