:happydance: So close! You could even say you're at "can I call this APL"!

Progress! A little longer, a little healthier. My bangs/fringe is clipped back in the second photo. I think I'll do another shot in October. :meditate:

OK SO I finally got around to ACTUALLY measuring my milestones. I didn't really bother before, and just measured between them and added it to the last, and it was very wrong :rollin:
My more "guessy" measurements:

HOW?!?!? I think I was half asleep. It's mostly fine until about BSL where it just... goes all weird. And how is it 12" from my ankles to the floor?! Tbh I may not have changed the last one from the example because I don't expect to ever want that long of hair. I think I stopped at mid-thigh. And I'm pretty sure that instead of letting the tape hang to measure to classic, I curved it around which added a few inches due to my bottom. :shakes fist: First it makes pants and skirts a pain, and then it makes my hair measurement weird!
Here's the measurements done much more properly (but still by myself, so probably a bit of error still):

Now, this one also has the goal calculations with another data point, so the timetable is different, of course. And mid-thigh is actually my FTL measurement, as I didn't take an actual mid-thigh. But I'd assume it was half the difference of classic and knee, right? I should fix that... So 49.5"? Done!
I'll still hit classic, on this current growth rate track, in under 2 years which is still very very fast. And I may be at BSL by my birthday! Oooooh!
Congrats NightSister! Nice growth there :blossom:
Corvana, I hope you will hit BSL by your birthday! LOL, your projected timeframe for TBL is basically my target for BSL! (I'm hoping my hair will pleasantly surprise me...)
The way mine's growing right now I'll end up with accidental layers if I don't trim - or even if I do trim, seeing as I'm getting the least cut off possible. I've already got what looks like a fringe growing out, but is just the very front of my hair being unable to catch up with the rest! It's so weird how I never noticed that the front grows slower, and the top kinda medium, while it seems (from regrowth in my hair dye pics) that the back and undersides grow fastest. Scheduling trim for the weekend after next. I should actually book that at some point, to make sure she can fit me in.
I also noticed how the vast majority of my sheds have no root regrowth, which makes sense seeing as they have to have been in the dormant stage in order to shed naturally in the first place - but it did take me a while of looking at them before I worked that out. Not having the most brainy of weeks!
I really need to learn to take a consistent photo, but anyway, here's the growth since May! (02 May, 06 June, 23 July) The last one's at a different angle thanks to mirrors etc, but it's certainly got longer. I put a towel on so I could see how long it is to APL and it's literally forever. :thud: I still hope to make it by December 2018 though.

Congratulations NightSister - it's growing well:)
