Hi All,

Dana is right on the money. Hair has growing cycles and for some people the growth cycle can last 7 or even 9 years. For other people it only last 3-4. Yes, there are things you can do to extend the growing cycle but hair is genetically programmed and for some people growing super long hair is more difficult than for other.

Yes hair does stop growing, hairs themselves have lives of 2-7 yrs and once it reaches that age it goes through a 3 month rest period and falls out. U know when uve reached it when ur hair stops growing. something like 90% of women can grow their hair to "classic length" and few cant grow it that logn and few can grow it longer. I don`t think your hair is doing that... if itsbeen longer than that before it can get that long again... If your hair is going in reverse... like getting shorter, its probably breaking off! I don`t know what you`re doing wrong but something isnt right... What`s ur normal hair care routine?

I don`t think this is true, how would your hair know what length it was at to stop growing in the first place?

Hi my friend just told me that people have a certain length of hair in which they grow. IN other words he is saying that you don`t grow hair after your hair has reached the length.

Before i got my bad cut my hair was covering my eyes and could easily cover my eyes and nose. Now it doesn`t cover my ears and barely covers my eyes. And the last time i got a hair cut was the end of December.

So is this true?
