Yay!!! :happydance: Isn't the Pencl Bun the BEST?! I've been wearing it almost every day. It's comfortable, it's easy, and it's fun. It took me a bazillion tries to "get" it, but once I did, I never looked back (well, I must admit that I DO look at the back of my head with the bun in it, but you know what I mean). Try the Magic Knot bun, too. It's a good one to switch off with.
Well, I measured my hair from its shortest back layers. It's a little over 18.5 (still not yet APL!), and then for the fun of it I measured to BSL.
25 inches.
So, I've got another 6 and a half inches to just the top of BSL, and I've thought about more and more of changing my goal to waist...
So I figure, my hair grows at about half an inch a month (during the winter), but hopefully it will grow faster now that the warmer weather is coming. So I probably have about another 6 months to APL.
AACCCKKKK!!! I'm so impatient!! GROW, GROW, GROW!!!!!!!!
I guess I just barely CAN sign in here. I must say I never knew growing hair wll be so annoying. I have had either past APL or short hair sofar. This is the first (self aware) time with shoulder lenght hair in my life. It is very inpractical and I don't like the look of it on me. I don't know, maybe I will feel better after two more inches. I'd cut it but I feel I have come too far with all the waiting.
well, I have just about reached APL (curly) and BSL (straight)...a couple more months and I may straighten it for a day to find out for sure
Picture progress anyone? :D
(Sorry about the low quality but my webcam does badly at night!)

Orchid bun! It's a little messy because my hair is too clean to stay put.

The very longest strands touch the top of my bra strap! I'm uber excited haha :D
Kaileida, congratulations!!! Way to GROW!!! :cheer:
Hi there
thats very nice growth! I've heavily layered hair from ears down, at the moment the longest layers are about inch or so from APL.planning on no trims until summer, maybe, we'll see.
Happy hair growth :D
YAY!! I finally found somewhere that I belong :D:D:D I know there are chin length threads on here, as well as APL/BSL and I knew I was not considered short/short, and I know I am not to APL yet, because that is one of my milestone goals. So, I am so glad I have found a happy medium!! I got an angled bob cut in December... (from BSL... DUH! ME!!!) Anyway, my hairdresser used a razor and chopped layers into it, since my hair is very thick and this type of bob is difficult to wear with thick hair, so she thinned it out some, but not too much. I would say there is only about 3 different length layers, but oh how annoying!!! My longest in front is approx. 18.5 my shortest in back is approx. 16.5, so I have a 2 inch difference. I am in the process of deciding when I want to go in for the trim to even out the layers, because I would like ALL one length right now at about APL. My hair grows approx. 0.75 inches a month, so I was thinking either the end of July or the end of October. I don't know which, because I really want to be able to see and feel some growth progress... Any thoughts or suggestions are greatly appreciated. TIA! At least I have found this thread to accompany me on my exciting yet FRUSTRATING journey!!!
*HAPPY GROWING*
