I got this question yesterday from my co-worker. She wants to know do we really believe that we can reach bra-strap or waist length? I told her we do believe that. I wanted to confirm and see if members really do believe they can reach their hair desires. My co-worker thinks it is all in genetics and that I won't be able to reach bra strap length. I told her I can't measure my hair length by genetics because maybe the women in my family could not take care of their hair. I told her everybody's hair grows but the trick is retaining your length.
Hey Country Gal
good question as for me before lhcf i did not think i could achieve my hair lengths goals lol i did not have any and for me shoulder length hair was the ultimate dream
meaning if i can just get to there and full and ever since joining the board, and seeing all the beautiful manes i never seen such long hair, i never ever seen waistlength hair before. i was just searching for a way to stop the shedding cause my relaxed hair was very damaged. Just looking at all the fotkis and reading all the threads, y all made me transition and then big chop all in a whim
lol learnt about scab hair chopped some more
the funny part as i was reading threads i was experimenting and look at me now dreaming of waistlength lol
now i m even contemplating butt length if my hair can go there lol i guess no one knows our terminal length cause oftentimes we dont treat our hair right and now with tlc, dedication, vits and al we have no excuses and cant rely on the misinformation we been fed so long and believe media hype that black people cant grow their hair long. i think even if genetics is a factor with tlc only you with time will know and see what terminal length your hair can reach cause in reality we all dont know till we reach there.in the meantime i m help mother nature a lil bit by giving my body all it needs to be fully compliant and efficient lol
