Apologies if there's already a thread like this but....

I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread for those of us who're growing out an unwanted colour and going natural (in the colour sense). Unless you shave your head (which has other problems!), it's a very drawn out and boring process so we need support haha!

I thought it could go something like....

Hair history (how you ended up in this mess )
Goal
Current length
Length of virgin hair

Anyhoo...

*I joined here with hair around 28 inches and all the one length. I think it vaguely resembled my natural colour.

I then hennaed because an ex liked it red (pathetic I know). Realised I didn't suit it.

I then had it cut to 22 inches in September 2008 and have since been maintaining between 23-25...

Had a long layer and a fringe (nose-length) put in on the 11th of March. It was 23 inches overall in length.

*My goal is to have my henna out completely and get to waist length and then see where I go from then. I'm looking to have it all natural by Christmas 2010 at the latest.

*Current length on April 18th 2009 is 24.5 inches overall and my fringe is down to my bottom lip.

*My virgin hair is four inches long.
