oh my gosh Brit that is horrible. How did you find out ? I would be mortified if everyone knew I had lice. I always try to wear my hair up because I'm scared of getting lice.
I haven't gotten a trim yet...so maybe I won't until I really need it.
I have been having some really bad dandruff lately, so I am going to have to soak my hair in selsun blue for the next few weeks..does anyone know if selsun blue is bad for your hair?
Oh, and I had a big scare the other day. Apparently a girl at our school had lice and I sit right in front of her...thank god I don't have lice. I made the nurses check my head again, and my mom checked it at least 5 times last night after I got home from school.
I regret getting a trim . My hair would have been 3 inches closer to my goal if I wouldnt have trimmed it. Think about it . They always hack off a couple of inches.

my hair seems it hasn't grown much since my last post...I been getting bored with it. I think I need a trim...I don't know...lifes been so busy that I dont' have time to care anymore.
If you have some time, try various updos. And while it's up, just forget about your hair (and do what you have to do during the day).
I think your hair is growing at the average rate. Mine does, too. And mine got kinda long, after enough time.

mmm... Ive never thought about it that way . You made it sound so lovely that it honestly doesnt bug me anymore. I think Im going to do the same thing as you Sarsvati Im going to trim it myself. I keep going to the salon because i see all these split ends. Good luck on growing your hair :)
lola I looove V-shaped hair. especially if it's really long (like hip
lenght) because then it doesn't look like you're wearing a cape or
something: it looks fairytale without the jagged split-end look.
Right now my hair is waistlength at 31.5in. I'm growing it to classic
because that lenght seems very regal and goddess-like and that's the
longest I think I'll ever want it. And maybe it'll cover my big
butt! If I don't like it that long I'll probably cut it back to
tailbone or hip, but def. no shorter than waist.
I've always loved long hair, but I never really grew mine out because I'm a perfectionist and didn't want any split
ends. SO I would get it cut every 2mo like they tell you to at the
salon and it never grew very long. THen I realized, that it's alright
(and almost impossible not to) to have some split ends as long
as I take care of my hair and it stills looks nice and not ratty. So I
said *&#@ it, I'm not going to trim it and now it's waist length
and still just as beautiful and healthy looking.
I thought I got rid of the V but I just took a picture and its the same :( My hair measures 25 inches now :) I'm going to start taking mulit-vitamins and B-12 hopefully that helps. I'm still aiming for wasist length hair.

My hair is now 27 inches, it grew a whole inch since the beginning of April! (That's twice as much as it normally grows) YES!
My only worry is that I found a couple of split ends, but only in the spot where I used to put my hair in a ponytail with one of those cloth-covered rubber band ponytail holders, none on the ends. I've been using a scrunchie (one of those thick cloth ponytail holders) for a while now, and I haven't got any more split ends. I did a search-and-destroy last week, and my hair's looking a lot better. I'm just so worried that my hair will get more split ends.
I'm also really glad I didn't do a dramatic hair-cut about a month ago, when I was getting a little bit bored with my hair, because it's nearly waist-length now and it looks so thick and healthy and gorgeous.
I'd love to take the Hairtopia or HF37 vitamins, but I don't know if I can get them where I live (Australia) and I doubt my parents would let me anyway.
Another three inches and I'll have reached my first goal length! I'm not going to cut it once it reaches 30 inches, but I'll take myself out for a milkshake to celebrate, with my hair down for once!
I had to cut my hair because of the V shape. It was bugging me . I was afraid to measure my hair because it looks noticeably shorter. My hair measures 24 inches. 6 more inches until I reach my goal :)

OK, Thanks. I keep taking and measuring. I *have* noticed my skin looks and feels great. My hair is softer.... but I have changed up a few other things so I could attribute the hair softness to clarifying, new 'poo and condish.
I really have no clue what I did, I think it was more of just measuring wrong. The only thing I have been doing is taking boitin, multi vitamins, and using HF37. Amazing really.
How long before you noticed the increase in growth? I have started taking Hairtopia for the last week. They are great vitamins!

Unless your hair is vey damaged, I would not trim much more than 1/4 of an inch every three months or so, or you could be trimming of any new growth you have.
I just measured my hair, and is is at a little over 32 inches in the back, and It is till messy from sleeping . It has been a little over a month since the last time I measured, when it was at 30. If I could only remember to take my HF37 regularly. It is growing pretty fast as it is with missing a day here and there. I could just imagine how it would be growing if I took it properly. I guess I just get overwhelmed with pills, as I take alot of supplements.I am going to try to do it right from now on .
27! congratulations ! youre getting closer to the length you want. my hair is a little over 26 inches. yes we will be one of them in a couple of years.
