Hey all- I thought I'd give a quick update on my growth progress. April was sort of a milestone month for my hair because my last professional trim was in April 2005, making it a year since I started cutting it myself. And I felt that an "accomplishment" like this deserved a progress pic... so here it goes:
My camera hasn't been working right for a while, so that accounts for the bad quality (and difference in hair color) of the second photo, but I wore the same shirt and stood in the same spot so it'd be easier to spot the growth. As you can see, I haven't measured my hair since New Year's (my goal is to wait until June 1st), but my guess is that it's at least 30" long by now (hopefully not wishful thinking... Anyway, I just wanted to check in and share my progress. I hope you- and your hair- are enjoying the warm weather!! ------------- "If you're not failing every now and again, it's a sign you're not doing anything very innovative." -Woody Allen |

Thanks guys missrini, I've been meaning to tell you how great your hair looks! It definitely grew A LOT since your January progress pic. Is it down to your shoulder blades now? ------------- "If you're not failing every now and again, it's a sign you're not doing anything very innovative." -Woody Allen |

Hmm....shoulderblades....yep, I think it is. It actually covers my tattoo now (which is on my left shoulderblade) so I'd say yes! I have a long way to go to bsl though :( And as I said, I'm trimming today, so I'm expecting to be back at 22 by the end of the day  -------------
