Quixii - have you been to classic or knee before? The way you said you "like classic better" made me wonder.

Yay, a thread for me! I have about a year until classic and I'm really looking forward to it. Imo hair isn't truly long until it hits classic. I think I'll be more content with it then too and stop thinking about cutting it because I'll know it CAN get that long. I was confident it would hit waist, not so confident about tailbone and uncertain about classic and beyond, despite no hints of terminal length. I just haven't been there, or close to there, before. Fear of the unknown, I guess. I have a goal longer than most people here, but I'd be relatively happy somewhere between classic and knee. I'd be freaking crushed if it wouldn't get to classic.

I was hoping to be at classic before the new year, but don't think I'm quite going to make it. I've been stuck around 37" for about three months now, so if I'm going to get there I'd better do some light-year speeds.

Hey, I think I fit in here too!

I was firmly at tailbone (37” on me), but I trimmed off an inch last weekend… now I would say I am at “can-I-call-this-tailbone?” length. Classic will be 42” for me.

I also have some old (chemical) dye left on my ends. It’s been about 4 years since I last dyed my hair, so it’s really just the last 5-6 inches.

I don’t really have a firm goal length in mind; I plan on growing until I feel it’s “long enough.” I am guessing that will be at least classic length, and no longer than knee length… fingertip does sound nice; on me fingertip is about the same as mid thigh, but fingertip sounds so much prettier

I'm sure if you're not showing signs of terminal yet, you'll surely hit classic, if you're only a year away!

Congrats on being so close to your goal!!

How much farther do you have to go? I got stuck around 35" for a few inches... must be a popular place for a stall!

I have some old chemical dye as well - probably 10 inches or so with henna over it? And another 10 of just henna (that's a very rough estimate), although all of that did get an ashy brown semi-permanent dye over it to help blend it in (it didn't) with my natural color. So really, I've got from shoulders down un-virgin.

Can't wait till it's all gone.

I also am growing till it's "long enough." Not sure where that'll take me.

Wow, you are sooooo close!! How exciting! 2 more inches to go for you! I have 4.5 or so. How much growth do you get per month?

I'm at tailbone right now, and have never gone past that. I think I may try since hanging around here has gotten me into the long hair mood.

Usually I go back and forth from tb to waist and back again. We'll see if I can keep it going for awhile.
Hey, what is the definition of classic anyway? I still haven't completely figured out this site yet. I know I became a member a long time ago, but never really started looking around much until we got our first home computer about a year ago.

Classic length goes all the way over your rear-end and touches the top of your thighs.

Amara, I'm just one of those people who worries about nearly impossible things (terminal length above classic, being struck by lightning, contracting some rare tropical disease unknown to medicine). I'm sure it'll reach classic-if I'm not hit by lightning first
