I know, I like this group. Congrats on reaching a goal!

Yippee for everyone's hair love!!

I've been busy searching pinterest and youtube for a long haired twin. It's hard for me to visualize my goal without a clear picture. I think I found it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOGn8osGDWA Although mine will be brown since I'm not dying it again.

And I've started a new diet today. I'm tired of carrying around this extra fluff, and I want my thinner face back!

Here's my latest length photos in my blog. Note plural. I am really close to APL, and for the first time (during this round of growing out) my hair passed the towel test line in some of the photos, so it's a milestone, even if I don't really count it yet. I chose the avarage looking length photo as the one I assume is the closest the truth: according to it, I am about 1-1,5 cm from APL, so I might actually make it this year after all!

PS. I probably am not going to stretch my hair after all, because my hair isn't really shrinking ATM, all the stretched photos looked just like unstretched photos. But if my hair would/will shrink, then sure I would measure when stretched.

Thank you!!! Yes, it's starting to feel long! Few months ago I felt it looked "boxy", but now it's grown out from that visually

Arctic, yay. We will be calling it soon......me by hook or by crook......but I need to move on before my head explodes. And you have arms! Makes me sad cause I only have wings, now, lol.

Sweetraj, wow, wish I knew mine would grow out like that. Beautiful.

I'm very ready to graduate too, over a year between milestones (that's how long shoulder to APL is taking me this time, it was November 2014 when my hair started to brush my shoulders, and now it's approaching APL) is a long time, even for someone as patient as me.

Lol about my arms; you should have seen my ex-fiance's arms, now they were long!

Oh, no not long, but in shape. Mine once were, lol.

Ah, I see

I've lost a lot muscle (after I injured my knees and stopped going to gym/lifting weights) so they are not as in shape as I'd like to. I've been trying to psych myself up to restarting the gym. But thank you!

vpatt - I should have clarified that's the hair I would like at longer lengths - my wave pattern is not nearly as strong as hers, and longer lengths might pull mine straight. But, I do not care! As I've said before, I'll take length over waves any day! And I totally get the "wings" comment!! haha. An old elbow injury prevents me from making any arm improvements.
