Re: Calling all who are growing shoulder to APL!
We all had had our cutting and coloring regrets, so I totally get you, BlushingRose you will certainly find understanding and support here.
There is no going back, unfortunately but you can do your best to take care of the new growth and enjoy the journey again. Good luck ;)

The breakage was so bad I got chemically cut layers (and my ends had been healthy and full, even without considering it was bleached WHITE beneath the pink!) So I cut it to jaw length and dyed it a really pretty bluish black. Its been a few months and I'm a little past shoulder now. I'm trying to grow to APL and maintain there till the rest of the layers grow out so I can have my full ends back. I'm so sad guys, I could've gotten to tailbone this the year if i had just dyed it darker instead of trying to strip it :c and the blue black is actually really beautiful. Sorry for the rant I just wish I hadn't been stupid. I have avoided this site out of shame honestly
Things like this happen. Think of it as a new beginning for your hair.

Re: Calling all who are growing shoulder to APL!
It's been a while since I've been on the forum. Long story short, my "trusted" stylist did what she wanted to my hair when I asked for subtle ombre and gave me all over 90s highlights and badly damaged my hair. It was traumatic and I had to lose a few inches and throw purple over to deal with the bleach damage.
I'm back with a blunt solid shoulder hem and enjoying my roots coming in and the purple (roots and purple are the only good things I got out of the experience). I've trimmed a bit more myself but I'm content to enjoy the hair I have left and spoil it.
Happy growing everyone!

That sounds horrible!😱 Luckily your hair didn't fry even worse or you'd have a pixie.

Welcome back!
Re: Calling all who are growing shoulder to APL!
Anyone else feel like they're stalled? It's only been a month since I called SL, but progress feels so much slower than when I could see it inching past my chin. This length feels so boring :(
