I felt like my hair was a bit longer lately, so my sister measured it for me this morning. The tips just reach 37 inches!!! I can't believe this, it's the longest it's ever been! I was just so extremely shocked because my last measurement the end of November showed 34 1/2. That means it has gained 2 1/2 inches in 2 months! This is just amazing..... I had an extreme shedding phase in the fall. I was beginning to get worried. I guess my hair went through a huge growth spurt after that. There's also tons of new growth all over my head. woohoo! I'm jumping for joy! ------------- sarah 40 inches did henna for the first time http://hairbraider.spaces.live.com - click here to go to My Hair Space

Congratulations, Sarah! Just incredible! I know that reaching long lengths as a curly may have been difficult, BUT what a triumph for you! Blessings, Bob

Thank you all so much! I'm glad to have friends who share in my excitement. Hugs to everybody. 
Alisa, I'll be posting new full length pics sometime this summer. Maybe by then I'll have gained even more length!
Kimbearly, I'm glad you like my site. I was thinking of changing to a different song, but I've gotten sooo many compliments on that one, I think I'll leave it a bit longer. ------------- sarah 40 inches did henna for the first time http://hairbraider.spaces.live.com - click here to go to My Hair Space

I don't know exactly how long 37 would be on a person, but I know its
over 3 feet, so its pretty long! Congratulations! With your
lovely curls I bet it looks amazing! (and I love your curl in your sig pic too, its so shiny and spiraly!). ------------- Making metal barettes/concord clips hair safe, long hair style how to: http://alonghair.wordpress.com |

Susan, 37 inches on me is a tiny bit past my tailbone. Of course, that's pulled straight. It doesn't look that long hanging loose. (that's my ultimate goal) I'm glad you like my sig.
 My hair really doesn't look that red normally, the flash does it. The black background makes it look redder too. Here's what it looked like without a flash.  ------------- sarah 40 inches did henna for the first time http://hairbraider.spaces.live.com - click here to go to My Hair Space

Thanks Dave! Yes, that's alot of growth. That's why I was so shocked and excited. I look forward to seeing new pics of my hair too. I always underestimate how it looks until I see it for myself and compare pics to see the progress. ------------- sarah 40 inches did henna for the first time http://hairbraider.spaces.live.com - click here to go to My Hair Space

I know what you mean, the flash always changes my hair color too, thats
why for my photo page I sometimes do both inside and outside, just so
no one thinks I'm trying to fake my color. But red or brown, your
curl looks just as shiny and lovely! ------------- Making metal barettes/concord clips hair safe, long hair style how to: http://alonghair.wordpress.com |
