I really debated putting this picture up or not but here we go...
The goal was to make WL by Christmas, which should have been just about the right timing. I even put myself into the "Waist by Christmas 2019" thread to keep me honest. I've been avoiding obsessive length checks and I wasn't sure I was going to make it, so I had a friend take a quick length shot for me while we were out on the town Friday night.
It looks like I may have made it - just barely. On the positive side, this is without a doubt the longest my hair's ever been.
Unfortunately, I don't think I'm going to call it/let myself graduate to the next length thread just yet. This was a really difficult year for me, and it looks like my benign neglect may not have been quite as "benign" as I thought. I'm very disappointed in the condition of my hair in this shot, and it feels like unless I can find a good way to salvage the length I've got and make it look better, the new year is likely to start off with a significant trim. Maybe not all the way back to BSL, but pretty close.
Is there a proper place/thread to look for suggestions on how I might be able to recover without a big chop? Feeling kinda frustrated at the moment.
