Judging from my Fotki pics what lenght am i exactly ?
I m planning on joining a challenge not sure which one would be really beneficial for me ..
My hair type is 3b ,transitioning +heat damage I ve had 3 hair cuts this year to cut off the relaxed ends I plan on trimming in aug and cutting 2 inches off in october depending on how long my hair is ,my ends seems very healthy no split ends ,however on the top layer i can see damage caused by heat styling and color.Should I trim my top layer only then?(in aug i mean).
Thanks for your help

I'd say you are right at APL.

I think you will yield a lot more responses it you add your pictures in your posts.

Sorry I am weary of fotki ( gave me a virus one too mant times) so I cannot comment on length.

Trim only what's necessary when necessay. JMHO

Try the no heat challenge or dc challenge.

thanks for that ,so perhaps i will only trim the top layer for now and let the rest grow a bit longer before cutting it off .

It does look like APL even though we cannot see the armpit of your lowered arm, which IMO gives a more accurate image. :yep: I try to show the difference in position between raised arm and lowered arm below. In your case a lot of your strands seem to be a little past the raised armpit, so I'd guess you are truly at APL. IMO if your hair just touched the raised armpit, it'd have a inch or two to reach APL:
