OK..I'm going to try and explain this as best as I can...

I have a weird spot on my crown where the hair goes in odd directions and lies flat. I have two spots actually, one on each side of the top of my head, but the one on the left side is FAR worse!  When I wear my hair up, it wants to form a  part at this spot which just looks silly, so I comb my hair over it (straight back) but then I get this huge lump!   I think this is called a "double crown"?  Not sure...but it drives me nuts!!!!

Anyone else have this problem?  I'm just a bit worried that it's going to get worse as my hair gets longer.  Or does it get better when your hair is longer?  Maybe I just don't have enough hair weight to make it sit flat?

Yeah you have a double crown. It should get better as it gets longer and heavier.

Meant to reply to this ages ago but never got round to registering!

I have a double crown Rini, sorry to say it doesn't get much better when it grows (think with curlies it is more pronounced than with straight hair).  When I was little my mum was told that because of my double crown I could never have long hair (I had a close crop for years because of this). Whilst this is not true it's also not true that long hair will make it go away. sorry

How much has your hair grown so far, Ms Rini?
As fate would have it, my business is all about you.

Sad to hear that PG  Oh well....will just have to get skilled at disguising it!

MsSerenity....my sig pic shows my hair last month. This month I had growth only in my layers, so the length is not different...but that's OK with me.

Funny, Rini, I did not change in length this month either (after two months of fast growth). I keep repeating to myself what PurpleBubba said about averages....

Yes.....make it your mantra SK!!!

Actually, I think I still had the usual growth rate as my roots appeared the same as always, it's just that the underneath layer (the longest one that I measure) didn't grow.

It's left me wondering if I should measure at all or just take pics? Hmmm....

Your pics are a great visual record of growth - I look at them often to remind myself how fast hair length changes. I need to get a good camera and start taking photos of my hair so I can have the same record!
