oops again!!!!
I can finally do a couple of stick bun type things! I am using thin paint brushes but with two in it stays all day! I am at 16.75 inches which on me is collarbone.
I'm more of a lurker than a poster, but I'm so happy the boards are back up that I thought I'd chime in and say that I was pleasantly surprised to realize that I'm about an inch away from APL, I should be there after the first of the year! I've been doing some serious benign neglect for the past 6 months or so, it's nice to see progress. I ended up getting a very layered haircut about a year and a half ago and it's been a long road getting those layers grown and cut out and gaining some length back. I'm finally coming out of the shoulder to APL abyss and I hope to be heading into the APL-BSL abyss soon!
Hi guys! wow finally it's back :happydance:
I'm almost there, 1" to go, but my growth has slowed significantly lately AND I've been finding a lot of splits :( I'm def going for a trim in the next few days so that'll set me back a nice half inch :justy: I hope that the cold season will help out like last year *le sigh* I'm crossing my fingers for APL on new years' but I'm having doubts. Oh well! I'll just have to hang around for a couple more months :D
Thanks for the warm welcome! It is really nice being done with a pixie! I'm definitely a big fan of the bun lately. And the high ponytail. I can't wait for APL. Must. have. patience.
Yay for being done with the pixie! It is so awesome to have hair again isn't it?
I'm still trying to get to APL and it feels like it's taking forever, my hair just loves shoulder length :( I usually grow about an inch a month but the past three months I've only gotten half an inch per month, I'm really hoping the slow growth is only due to it being winter here and now that it's summer again, my hair will speed up to an inch a month (or more) again, patience is not one of my virtues haha :)
I am allllmost there. So close. I was feeling down about my lack of progress, so I posted all my towel tests since I started doing them (May) in my blog. Made me feel tons better!
Is it bad when the boards were down I was put out that I couldn't post my November towel test? Yes, I'm weird.
The thin paintbrush thing is smart, because at this shorter length it's hard to cram a thicker stick in there and make it work out. Plus paintbrushes are cheap (well some are) so if you break one it's no big deal. I have some thinner aluminum forks that are wonderful that seem to work this way (they are by ravenslair on ESTY)Quote:
