QuoteReplyTopic: Growing hair: only add ferts and water!!! Posted: November 18 2005 at 8:47pm
I'm somewhat glad I only evened out my hair really and got bob, because I think I want to grow my hair out longer. It is evened out because I used to have a haircut a little longer than a pixie about a year ago and the front was so much shorter than the back!! My current hair is a little (maybe an inch) past chin length. It was just cut so there are no nasty ends and it will look fine to grow out. Okay...so I do not want to grow it out that long...maybe slightly past the shoulder, Here is what I was watching to do with my hair:
How long do you think it will take my to grow my hair to that length? I was going to estimate about 8 months.
My hair grows a bit slower in the winter. Even so it wouldn't take me as long as 8 months. Mine is just below chin length as well and if I missed about 4 trims it would be as long as in the photos. You might manage it in 5 months. Roll on Easter!
But I also have to worry about the back. It's slightly inverted...er
was...not it's not as noticable. I wish it was summer...my hair grew so
fast! In 4 months it grew maybe 3 inches. Which seemed like a lot
considering it was so short!
It's grown an amazing amount in a year. I still think you'll do it in a few months. It looks like it is in lovely condition and straight hair always seems to grow quicker than curly hair. Good luck!

The first picture, with the blonde hair, is exaclty how I wanted my hair. I showed that exact picture, in a hair magazine that I have, to my hair dresser and got it cut the other day. My hair turned out nothing like that and I am so upset. My hair is now shoulder length with tons of really short layers. Does anyone know how to achieve the look in the first picture? Do they razor it out because my hair is kind of thick, but not too thick. Any suggestions on how to achieve this look when I already have gotten my hair layered I would appretiate it. Thanks.
Straightener will make it look more like the picture. My sister's hair
is so thick and she uses the straightener and afterwards it looks so
much thinner! That is a suggestion.
Thanks for the warning on the hairstyle! I never really noticed the
layers were going to be so short. I have a problem judging those
things. I did find a style that was like it but with longer layers. I
dunno if I would ask for something different with the hair in her face
or not. I know I want some bangs. Still have to find a picture of bangs
I want...if I want them.

I had my hair cut similar to yours once... And then eventually tried to go for the "Josie and the Pusscats" style... kind of like those pictures you posted.
It absolutely did not work. Probably my hair type (wavy/curly/all over the place). The razored layers also made it very hard to grow out.
But to the topic on hand: I would agree with everyone else...less than 8 months. And even if the back is kind of shorter/inverted, as long as most of it reaches the max length you want, they'll be cutting short layers into in anyway.
Well, truth is...I do not
really know what I want quite yet other than a little below shoulder
length. LOL!
Recently, I found two pictures off this professional photographer
website...and the girls hair is much how my hair type is. Straight but
sort of does whatever at the ends like hers. Okay, so I've been now
trying to find a better example of what she has done to her ends. I do
not think it is just a plain and simple cut (well it is), but the ends
do not look blunt. I know if I just grew out my hair to that length
then my hair would look like a pyramid. Anyway...what did they do to the ends?
Oh and I cropped out all the unnecessary stuff...like her sitting there in her panties.

Sweetpea I'd agree, I think they put product in it, like mousse maybe, then straightened it.
Always_alone, I would have guessed that last girl was blunt cut, but
that there were long bangs and it maybe is slightly shorter in the
front on the sides, and the ends were curled artificially (but that's
all guesses too, its hard to tell - thanks for not making us look at
her drawers! )

What do you guys think of something like that? Not what she did with
it...with all those picture it is easy to see. Just the style is
general on someone like me? I swear this is the only picture that will
load onto the site...it's the smallest file size.
I don't know what you mean by "not what she did with it", but both the
style and cut looks nice and also stylish. You are pretty and you
can do anything you want with your hair and look great,
congratulations!
