Maybe I should join no length check challenge as well after I've reached APL. Being at home all the time means that checking and obsessing over length is far too easy and little good comes from obsessing over anything.

APL isn't even that long yet it seems to take forever from shoulders?
I'll let you all know if I (wishful thinking) get to APL by June 24 which would mark officially 1 year from chin.
I’m also hoping to reach APL by June/July! Based on my measurements it SHOULD be possible...but it’s kind of hard to measure that area, so who knows if my measurements are even right!
I don't remember who mentioned it but wrap a towel around you right up to your armpits then measure to the towel edge
You can also try to get the most straightforward angle as is possible and then draw a line in a software (such as MS paint) that connects the arm pits (where the crease starts on each arm)!
APL has the most unfortunate milestone name, besides maybe "butt crack length" lmao. But they're both nice lengths! Why did we have to name our body parts such humorous things?
Maybe we should change the name to axilla length, sounds much more classy lmao!!
lol right? now someone is calling classic Crotch Length now ;) more weird names! also Oxie I'm sure you'll be at apl before the end of this year with how fast it Grows!
:laugh: I guess crotch length is technically accurate, but very unglamorous sounding. Although honestly I’ve never been able to figure out where the name “classic length” came from...
Turns out there was a whole thread dedicated to discussing the name "classic length" way back when... https://forums.longhaircommunity.com...ad.php?t=17605
I had a look and the golden section thing is interesting there is this math equation thing to find the "most attractive length" according to your height.
(61.8 x your height in cm) divided by 100
With my 165cm you get:
(61.8 x 165) / 100 = 101.97
102cm is classic I think for me anyway
