I've come to terms over the last year or so that without those yearly 3-4" trims I would probably be well on my way to knee by now. But my hemline is beautiful, I enjoy my hair and its health, and now I'm taking on learning to trim it myself to avoid the extraneous loss of growth in the future.
mochichichi, I just took a look at your photos after your nice message in the other thread, and your hemline is out of this world! It sounds like you've been (unintentionally) maintaining at hip long enough to maximise its bluntness and thickness, which puts you in a great position for growing!
