AS it says in my signature...my first goal is to get to 26". I am better able to handle small goals than to set the bar too high for myself all at once. Once I reach 26, I will have a little party for my hair with lots of aromatherapy and oils...maybe even go to a salon and have it braided into an updo.
Then my next goal is waist, which on me is about 30"....then more celebrating!
I think that if I reach waist and can handle the extra weight, I might try longer. I have some heavy hair.
On this topic....Dave, or any of you other long haired lovelies - have you ever weighed your hair?
I would like to hit knee length and would be thrilled if it would get to ankle length, much more than that would be hard to care for. But we'll see, I have a ways to go before I hit either one!!!
My hair is as long as it has ever been as an adult - I don't think it's stopped growing, so let's see how far it will go. If it gets to the point where I can't take care of it - I think I'd have to consider losing some length. I don't want someone else to have to care for my hair....

I was almost there and I cut quite a bit off, but it needed it. I am growing it back again, using a better shampoo/conditioner and it seems to be helping a lot. The summer seems to help me, I just wrap it up in a bun and secure it with a "scrunchi sport!" it keeps it out of my face, detangled, and it grows because it is being left alone!

I know that 10x15 is 150 + 46 I have now is 196. Even though I'm 201 tall , some would be on the floor by then, but not to over-project, let's say they'd be at the knees or a bit below by then. However I'm going terminal :P

As long as it will get in what is left of my lifetime, which is plenty of time. So far, it's only been as long as a little past shoulder length. Unless it becomes a royal pain, I want to see its full potential.
The longest I think I'd ever want my hair to be is ankle length. I don't think I could take care of it myself if it's any longer than that. Currently, my longest goal is mid-thigh. Once my hair gets that long, I will decide if it'll look good longer, and if I will still be able to take care of it.
That is a nice image. I think Alanis Morissette did that in a video once?? For "Thank You".
I think I might stop at my waist. I just like the length of waist length hair. At this point it seems like my hair is growing so slowly that this will never be a concern of mine.
I do wonder how long my hair would get. I recently learned that my Great Grandmother had long hair. She lived to 100 years old! I don't really know how long her hair was. Whenever I saw her, it was in a bun.

I am just wondering how long you would let your hair get? Would you stop at a particular length?
I have no idea what my growth potential is as neither of my grand-mothers nor my mother let their hair grow very long. So my personal hair growth odyssey involves a discovery of my unknown maximum length.
Do you know how long your hair will grow....or are you willing to find out..?
Thanks in advance .
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ An Interlude........
I never read the story of Rapunzel, but as an avid Tolkien admirer, I found long hair inspiration in the character of Luthien Tinuviel from the Silmarillion.
Luthien was an elven princess, of loveliness that beggared description. The most beautiful of the children of the world.
The arts of enchantment "...caused her hair to grow to great length, and of it she wove a dark robe that wrapped her beauty like a shadow..."
Luthien cast a spell into her hair and trapped it there by twining it into a rope.
It's a beautiful story, but the image of hair so long that it can be worn as a cloak around the body, is truly fascinating to me.
