How to grow my hair long
It made me
Me!
 "A hell of a fun time."
How I did it: It started growing when I was little and I just never stopped it. I've only had a handful of minor trims, an inch or less each, in my life. My hair is now 48" and still growing. I encourage anyone who wants long hair; just take care of it, and have fun. Lessons & tips: Be patient with your hair; don't rip out tangles, or cut it short in frustration. It might seem tempting, but whatever knot is there, you can fix. Resources: http://longhaircommunity.com/ which I discovered recently; helpful, fun community who are giving me tips on how to make my hair even nicer than it is now. These people KNOW hair. And they will celebrate with you every time you get to a hair length goal, if you're a person who makes those; personally I never was, but a lot of people do.

How I did it: I'm not sure why, but when I was eleven or twelve, I decided that I wanted a bob. A short one. So I got my mum to (reluctantly) lop off by beautiful long hair and enjoyed having a bob for a while. The novelty quickly wore off though and before long I missed pigtails, plaits, ponytails and being able to brush lovely, long locks. I decided to grow it again and now it almost reaches the small of my back at its longest. I managed to grow long… Read how I did it…

Just a Few More Inches...
1 week ago
I can now touch the very tips of my hair when I reach behind me(which is about bra length) I want just a few nore inches, just so that when I reach behind me I don’t have to push my arm all the way up to touch it.
Hair is starting to grow
1 week ago
I chopped my hair off on August 2nd 2009 and it has grown so much since then. I have been conditioning my hair regularly and moisturizing it. I have also been doing scalp massages to encourage hair growth. When the new year comes I will be starting a new hair regimen. I should have some money by the new year so I will be able to buy the things that I need. I want my hair to grow at least one inch per month. My hair has been doing so well so far but I now need to improve my regimen.

I used to have long hair, but then it got a load of split ends cause I didn’t look after it properly :(. I cut it real short, NOW I WANT IT BACK, i miss it so much :(, but it’s growing!
Almost there
2 weeks ago
I used to have hair that was waist-length. However, I was eager for a change and cut my hair very short (bob cut). I developed the habit of cutting my hair every few months by my stylist. A few years later, I began missing my long hair. I am East African and so have curly hair. It’s difficult to deal with curly hair when it is short, it is so much easier when it is longer. Plus, I don’t like having to blow dry my hair straight since short curly hair looks strange on me. I miss just washing and going with my curls.
So I’ve stopped cutting my hair about four months ago and my hair is already a bit past shoulder-length. I’m honestly surprised at how quickly it grows (I never stopped cutting long enough to realize). Now I’m so much closer to my goal and I do love my longer hair. It’s a different look and people have noticed. I find that men do approach me more. It’s strange but I suppose that men love long hair. lol I’m not doing this for them, but for me. I really do love my hair when it’s curly and it’s even better when it’s long. :) Can’t wait to see how long it gets in another four months!

hairdressers!
2 weeks ago
The only way I can grow my hair long is if I stay away from the hairdressers. When I say ‘trim’ and indicate with thumb and forefinger under an inch I come out with half my hair still attached … the other half on their floor!
I guess it’s hard to guesstimate and work with curly hair, so my latest ploy is to ask for a hairdresser who can work with curly hair … of course they all put their hand up! Sigh…
The other thing is to keep healthy, keep taking the VitD and keep that hair thick and curly!
hurry hurry!
