Last year in January my goal length was classic, but then I decided during the year that Tailbone is my ultimate desired length and I have already reached that goal.
My goal length has not changed
My goal length is now longer
My goal length is now shorter
I am new to LHC and have not previously had a goal length
I have reached my goal length
I am still growing toward my goal length
I reached my previous goal and decided to go longer
I reached my previous goal and decided to go shorter
I have no goal
My goal length is still the same...as long as it will grow/terminal. Still growing towards it and hopefully will keep growing for a while!![]()
Final Goal: Terminal lengthLady Randiriel, Shepherdess of Tithenmamiwen
Last year in January my goal length was classic, but then I decided during the year that Tailbone is my ultimate desired length and I have already reached that goal.
I didn't think my goal had changed, but then I looked back at last year's and apparently my goal length is longer now! Last year my goal was TBL, now it's Classic. After that, I'll reassess and figure out if I want to maintain, cut, or continue growing. But by my calculations Classic is still about 2 years away for me, so I won't have to think about that for a while!
I don’t exactly remember when I revised my length goal from classic to tbl but it was at some point in the last year - when I joined LHC, I was thinking I wanted to get to waist, then immediately arrived there and got the bug. I thought classic for a while, but have since decided that somewhere in the bcl/tbl range is where I want to be.
Currently, I’m about an inch or less away from bcl wet so by next winter solstice I should be close to tbl dry if all goes according to plan.
My original goal was TBL, then when I reached it I wanted to grow to classic. In the last 5 years or so I have been trimming back to hip (when reaching classic). On the 1st January 2022, however, I realised I had a few straggling ends at top of thigh, which made me want to nurture them and let them grow towards the knee. Mid-thigh would be great by Christmas!
My goal remains the same: terminal or at least between classic to knee. Still worried my terminal is going to be before classic.
Big chop - 18th August 2021
SL/15 - CLB/17 - APL/21 - MBL/26 - WL/30 - HL/32 - BCL/36 - TBL/40 - CL/45
Measuring unstretched because flexibility is dumb.
I’m keeping my goal as waist for now, although I don’t think that is a length I will stay at, if I ever get there. I think either a bit shorter (or longer, although that seems unlikely) would be more flattering for me.
ETA: does that make any sense?? My goal is waist but I think MBL or hip/tailbone would be more flattering for my figure. Waist makes sense as a goal for now though, because if my hair looks too thin at that length (highly likely) I will be unlikely to grow longer to hip or tailbone. If I don’t try though, I will never know.

I'm not sure I understand the question? "Has your goal length changed"... in the past year, do you mean? Ever? What is the time frame for this changing?
Meaning, have you revised your goal in the past year - as in, in 2020 you thought your goal was TBL but in 2021 you reached TBL and decided that you actually want to grow to CL (for example).
Or, in my case, my goal was CL but in the past year I decided that I don't want to grow quite that long and so TBL is my new goal length.
Does that make sense?

I changed from the original goal of waist (reached that) and am moving to classic. Not particularly because I want longer hair, but because I'm finding that there are hairstyles that I like, that require longer hair - having very fine hair, even though it's reasonably dense, it compresses down to a smallish bun. I want a BIG bun!![]()
