Thank you, raemarthe! My hair was airdried and fingercombed when dry here. I used to think I'm a straighty, but these waves are really nice. I rarely see them because of bun-waves though.
Thanks, sarahthegemini, good to know I'm not alone.
Thank you, Alissalocks, nice to meet you too. I love the look of the deep v in your hem. I think it's really etheral.
<Insert something witty and clever here>
Had a trim today and a little too much was taken offI'm now BSL when my hair is wet/straight rather than WL when wet
This means when dry and wavy, my hair doesn't quite reach my bra band.
Hoping I might be at waist by Christmas!

From your photo it looks like you will reach waist really soon Sofialu 😊
And your hair looks beautiful.
Sofialu, your hair so gorgeous, and you look super close to waist.
Well I've figured out my wearing my hair up dilemma. Before I was my wearing my hair up with bobby pins and scrunchies and it was really hurting my head and I think causing damage too. On a whim I put my hair up in a bun with one of my moms knitting needles, and oh my gosh soooo much better than a hair tie. My hair in the past was too short and thick to put it up the LHC way, but now I'm going to use the knitting needles until I can get proper hair toys. They are very nice needles, super thick, and made of wood.
I also have one flexi 8, that my sister gave me after she shaved her head, but it is wayyyyy too small to put my hair up with. Its literally about ³ inches long. She was using it for half ups! I wish it were bigger.
Now I'm browsing on Etsy for real hair sticks. I'm a newbie when it comes to hair toys!![]()

So sweet of you Cg, thank you!
Thanks raemarthe, I am still approx 2 inches from waist so might not grow quickly enough but I'm hopefulI find hair bobbles/elastics really make my scalp hurt too so am glad to know the hair sticks are much better. I'd love to try a hair stick but my hair is quite thick with some shoulder length layers so that probably means it won't stay in securely with a hair stick just yet.
Posted this on the waist at Christmas thread too.
I'm almost there. Will call it when I'm well into waist. Classic seems so far away.
