In December, 2010, I was full APL.

When I flat ironed in the first week of September 2011, I was grazing MBL. Hopefully I'm full MBL by now.

I have finally reached APL and I'm so happy about it :D

Before starting my HHJ in 2008, I'd always been around SL, and it was quite a hurdle to get past but I eventually made it :yep:

I am starting at BSL.

I have been bsl before but back in August I decided to start a HHJ after cutting my hair to armpit length.

Hoping to hit MBL and waist length this year

In February 2009, I had abt an inch of TWA.

I'm starting 2012 with shoulder length hair. I want to end it with APL.

I will be starting 2012 at mbl. I will be full wl by September 2012.

I hope to be grazing hl by December 2012.

When I started lurking on lhcf, I was between ear and neck length in 2008.

What hair length are you starting with going into 2012?


What length did you start with and in what year?

Almost full hip length (front of hair is wl) with nape between hip and tailbone. I think I've reached or am very close to terminal length.

Pre-06 was around bsl relaxed (sometimes a little shorter or longer).

Bc'd to SL (around 6-7 inches) in May 06 after 15 month transition.

I started in July 2010 with a BC down to 1/2 an inch of hair. I'm going into 2012 with CBL hair. My goal for the end of 2012 is grazing BSL.

Natural w/ Current : Whip length (somewhere between waist and hip). I should've past that by now and if I can put down the scissors I will be to my goal this year or early next.
I started with a 1-2inch bc but I've had set backs in between so we won't even go there. Let's talk about my second bc to shoulder

BC 2009 Nov/Shoulder length: looking @ my pics below you can see the cut to shoulder nov 2009 (I had leaning syndrome as I just cut my hair after a health related set back and also the fact that I was trying to get out all layers. So that's a pic where I'm guilty of leaning and it's still shoulder). . I haven't updated the photos but when I'm finish with my protective style (around Late Jan or early Feb I'll post a new update)

From that cut in Nov 2009 till two years and one month later (and seriously huge hair cuts to even out layers), I'm between waist and hip length.

I know you didn't ask but I'm 5'5 aiming for a definite tailbone (or at least full hip this year). Future goal though is a possible classic (which I know will take more than a year,but if I make this goal depends on how my hair looks on me after tailbone. Don't want to look like cousin it:look:)

Bs length, don't know if I want to go longer may just trim and retain this length. It gets difficult dealing with curly long hair:ohwell:

I'm gonna give the lengths of all parts of my hair because its not the same all around....

At the end of 2011 I am...

Front - past chin
Sides - apl
Back - past apl, maybe bsb or really close.

By the end of 2012, here's what its GOING to be

Front - collarbone
Sides - bsl
Back - midback

I've been natural since 2005, but I cut my hair a few times after my original chop...the *last* major cut was in august 2009 and I started with an inch or less...so we'll say that's the starting point :)

I don't know from my pics :look:
2012 will bring a lot of 3 month trims :grin:

In 2005 I had MBL/grazing WL hair
In 2008 I cut my hair off and by the end of the year it was Shoulder length.

In 2012 My hair is to the tip top of the booty crack.
I am now transitioning and will leave my hair for about 3 years before removing my relaxed ends :)

When I first started here I was neck length. I am currently collarbone length, but only because I retained like 3 or 4 inches this year. Hoping for APL next year, if not past it. I want all 6 inches next year

Lord I don't know what to do. I'm stuck between chopping it and going natural or letting it grow to my waist again. I must say, having had waist length hair many times, it becomes like that been there done that kinda thing. I wanna go natural so bad because I'm loving all of this information I'm getting about natural hair care. As of right now I haven't had a relaxer since August and it can get challenging because of the two textures. I'm seriously thinking about chopping just so I can have one texture. Anyway, there is my confusion for the year!

Right now I'm an inch above WL(Just cut/trimmed 1.5-3", to even up my layers). But I started my hair journey in June '09 at CBL.

Oh, I voted incorrectly. I thought the title said before LHCF. I didn't even notice the 2012. I was waist length and now grazing hip length. I posted pics in the Hip Length 2012 challenge. I expect to make hip length fully by June. I am giving myself mid year. I grow pretty fast.

I did a mini length check and I'm finally touching BSL!

I started back in Dec 2008 and I was neck length. Later in May 2009 I chopped to EL.
