Well I`m new to this board (I hail from www.longhairlovers.com which has a few excellent message boards) so I figured I`d ask the age-old question. How long is your hair? (make sure to specify HOW you measure your hair, from where y`know...) How long do you want it to be? *runs off to measure hair* *from my hairline, over my head, to my tips it`s 31 inches *from root to tips it`s 28 (I don`t like this method because depending on which hair you grab it can differ a lot!) *it goes just below my waist (like, just inches) *I want it to get to "classic" length, or right below my bum, which is about (omg!) a mere 10 inches away :) Brittany |

Reply to message: viewthread.asp?forum=AMB%5FAP881778452&id=233&page=1#24.233.1 - 24.233.1 My hair length goal now is midback length, it can be reached in 1 and 1/2 year if the hair continues growing and not too much split ends have to removed, and if genetics will behave friendly. But there exist a lot of hair pills I didn`t have used yet.wolfgang ------------- |

My hair is almost to the top of my bra strap in the back. I don`t know what that is in inches. My goal is ultimately to reach my waist, but my short term goal is below my bra strap. Then after that to half way from where it is now to my waist, then to my waist. If I go by steps maybe I won`t get so impatient.  ------------- ?/35.5/ tailbone curly hair <>< |

Reply to message: viewthread.asp?forum=AMB%5FAP881778452&id=233&page=1#24.239.1 - 24.239.1 My length & goals are a lot like you, "SnowWhite". I just had a trim yesterday, and my hair is about an inch above my brap strap in back. Measured from the crown down, it`s 16 1/2 inches. I have the same short term goal, which is getting below my bra strap (probably 1 year from now, based on recent progress & trims), and then a longer term goal of halfway from there to my waist (2-3 years from now). I would love to get to waistlength after that, but I`m not sure it`ll grow that long any more (I`m 41) or look good at that length. Good look to everybody with their goals!------------- |

First it is important that you like it and then you may see that long hair admirers exist who love it and after that you will detect that society has different opinions, but if you stand for your hair most people will accept it and this few who hate long hair are not the majority. I think a woman should not give up all the happiness that long hair will give to her only in view of this or only to be conform. And you can see that great women with long and superlong hair exist at all ages. Great personalities don`t take care what someone thinks about their hair, I think about Albert Einstein ... only to give an example. I am sure if you love your hair and you will manage it well you will reach your goal.wolfgang ------------- |

Reply to message: viewthread.asp?forum=AMB%5FAP881778452&id=233&page=1#24.380.1 - 24.380.1 My hair touches my collarbone. Duh... long way to go!My goal is to let my gray hair area which is about 1 1/2 inches from my scalp grow out. I plan to keep my hair at this length until the gray part evens out and then let it grow, grow grow! I wonder how it will look in the end? I wonder if I can stand looking at myself with half gray hair and half dark brown while it grows out!!! Uck! I`ve had my hair to my hips before and would like to have it to my waist again. As I remember it was more versatile at that length for me. When it got longer than that I found it painfully heavy to wear on my head. I love finding this board as I need lots of support to keep my little dream alive. After all how many women dream of having long, gray hair!!!!! Yikes!! LOL Wishing everyone`s long hair dreams come true! Anaclaire ------------- |

My hair goes down to about my elbows. I don`t really want to grow it any longer or cut it off any shorter. I like it at the length it is now. When it gets longer I usually cut it back to elbow length again. ------------- |

Hi All, My hair goes down to the bottom of my elbows. It has taken a few years to get this long and I absolutely love it. I usually wear it in a ponytail or braid it. I love the french braid best. In my job having such long hair is not a problem. I`m a cosmetoologist, so people expect me to be somewhat feminine, and I don`t dissapoint them. I would like my hair to just reach the top of my belt. I love to wear it loose when I am not working. ------------- |

Right now my hair is about 2 inches below my shoulders and my goal is to grow it just a few more inches so it`s still higher then the bra strap line. If I grew it any longer, it would go wavy and i like it straight like it is now! ------------- |

Mine`s in layers (uhg!!!) to my shoulders (just barely). My goal is to have it all to just below my bra straps, no layers, and all one color (I bleached it last september and still have weird colors at the bottom). To get it to my bra straps will take about 10 months, 14 to get all the layers out, and 26 to be all one color. *sigh* I can only hope that I make it. But once I can get it about 2" below my shoulders I think I will stop obsessing! Luck to all who love their long hair! ------------- -Kera aka princess of the air force (they just don`t know it yet) |
