Shoulder | Armpit

**Qwackie** · October 6th, 2010, 03:54 PM

Mine is just a bit short of shoulder, I think it'll take about six months for it to be APL, maybe longer.

I'm almost there

!! It's taking forever, I had to cut so much in the front because of the inverted bob I used to have.

Is there a code we can use to make the pic appear smaller in a post?

I'm not sure what it is, tbh. I haven't been loading it up with ANY protein at all. I've just been having all sorts of issues with breakage and general shedding since I switched (for budget reasons) from Catwalk's Honey & Oatmeal conditioner, which I used for years.
I've shopped around and tried a few things... but it's the same problem with anything else I've tried.

I had my hair trimmed saturday and it actually has gotten really long at the back. My hair is thinner and never seems to grow at the front so it makes it feel shorter

Right now it doesnt matter because i have to put it up as i just had a tattoo and my hair sits in the ointment and gets greasy!

I jsut wish the front would grow and thicken!

I'm exactly the same. I have had to have two decent cuts this year because I was getting a huge step from the side to the back, it looked awful

. The back of my hair grows 1" per month but the sides probably have only grown 2" in a year! The only thing I can think of is that heat damage effects the sides more than the back because its finer . I used to straighten everyday and I think even a year on and reducing hair straightening to only special occassions my hair is still breaking at the sides. You could try GENTLY brushing your hair over a white piece of paper and see if its breaking.

Only 2" to APL! It's flipping right now so that hides its length a bit. Maybe APL by the new year!

I have about 1.5-2 inches to go.

Wow, you look really close to APL actually, im guessing a month? or maybe less depending on your growth.

**Shany** · October 8th, 2010, 04:17 PM

Yes in a month for sure. I was so happy when I saw the pic! My hair grows an average of 0.6 inch/month. Does it take longer to grow APL to BSL than shoulder to APL ?
