For instance if you started your hhj when you were SL, how long did it take to get to WL?
Im just guessing but...2 years? Does that sound reasonable? I know some women can do it in a year.
When i was relaxed it took me 2 yrs to go from almost APL to waist length.
Im 5'8. With a somewhat short torso. Im mostly legs.
Sent from my N860 using LHCF
forever.......
Exactly.
I'm just gonna say until death for me.
I'll report back in another 45 years w/ pics.
Thanks for responding ladies...everyone made very good points. I am now slightly pass apl and am gonna consistently ps my hair all this month to see how much I retain. I have never measured the amount of hair I retain. Hopefully I can make bsl before this year is up.
I have not set a goal of wl at all but I was just curious lol....i prefer baby steps.
I think that's a good plan. It's what I did when I cut back to shoulder to get to waist (my ends were nicely tucked 99% of the time and my hair was braided up and away)...because I wanted to get there as fast as possible (as I was ready to move forward to my next goals and the set back of a trim with thining sheers was NOT cool (surprise stylist) and I needed to get out those layers.
It really helped to protective style...as you'll get there a lot faster than if you're constantly manipulating and in the hair IMO
Hey for those who've made waist how about we give inches from shoulder to waist (to compare) with height...and how repeat how long it took again. That way it may help others to gauge the difference in height (whether this is illusive or if height is mostly in the legs) or if it's pretty similar (distance) for those at 5'4 and taller
@luckiestdestiny thanks for the encouragement, I honestly wondered if PSing would matter in how long it takes to reach goals...like PSing vs not PSing...and thats a great idea at the bold.
it depends on how much your hair grows and how much you retain
i use this formula of where i should be and how long it may take me to get there if all is going well
here is a poor estimated example:
measure from nap to waist = 20in
i grow a half of inch a month .5
20/.5 =40
40/12(number of months in a year)
40/12=3.33
so it should take me over 3 years to get 20 inches of hair if i am consistent with my retention
