That's a lot of growth for 1yr:)

I know, I'm going to milk her threads for info but one thing she doesn't state or I have to thoroughly go through them... is I never here her mention a trim and that's my biggest problem for not retaining length is I over due them.
 
Uhm...to have that much growth, she has to have a high growth rate which is something you can not duplicate.
You can take some lessons and tips from her but do not expect her results or be disappointed and think you are doing something wrong if you do not achieve the same.
 
I know my hair doesn't grow slow and it it barely breaks unless I comb like a mad man which I seldom do. I just got to leave the scissors to rest. The only way I can see that honestly is that she must have not trimmed her hair, waiting for her to report back bout the trimming

Good point. One thing people forget is the length at of one's back. In other words... how tall is she and is her back short or long?

Being tall it probably wouldn't be there as fast. But a gymnast height..lol...more than likely. :grin:
 
No offense, but only a few hairs are touching her waist. She needs a trim for it to look really healthy imo. Still, awesome growth!

I never thought of that.... Great point

I thought that too that she wasn't all the way there but close to it but like most agree it's great growth
 
I was expecting to see true shoulder length to true waist length. She seems Collarbone length or almost APL to start and grazing WL to finish.
It's like she describes the shorter length using her shortest hairs and describes her longest length using her longest ones which makes it seem like a bigger difference.
Also her hair looked wet/not fully stretched in the first pic.

This is still great retenion, but more realistic and obtainable than I thought going in. Looks like the standard 6 -8 inches.

YOu can do this, OP

To me this looks like somebody who went from APL to MBL... not SL to WL. So I think she's kind of streeeetching on that. But its still awesome progress!
 
Great retention but no. She did not go from shoulder length to waist length in one year. Her hair seems to grow in a V shape. She was grazing APL and she is now grazing WL.

It's achievable, a little more in than 6 inches in one year.

I noticed that too. I would've claimed MBL but great retention nonetheless. Her hair is very pretty. It took me a little over a year to go from APL to MBL.

She looks like she is either short or has a short back plus only a few hairs are grazing her waist.
 
What is her hair type... Not sure I can relate ... Is she a 3C? Maybe her hair (which is beautiful with amazing growth) is different from my 4a/b... IJS
 
Ok jus watched the video and she does not look to be APL.....and she looks to be below MBL. Her hair was only blown straight so im sure she would have reached WL if she would have flat ironed her hair.


Great retention and its thick :)

I love her thickness!
 
Her hair is so pretty. But i was thinking the same thing yall. the first pic she seemed a bit past shoulder length and the end pic she only had a few lead strands that were touching waist length. He hair grows in a strong V shape too. It will take a while for her to be full WL. nice growth none the less. i wish i could get even normal growth. I only get 0.3 of a inch a month, resulting in about 3-4 inches a year.
 
She wasn't APL in the before picture. In the after pic she is definitely WL, but not full WL. Either way she had great growth and retention. Her ends don't look bad either. I've definitely seen worse.

Yes. Most of her hair is at or around MBL. She has a high growth rate coupled with great retention so I can't knock it. I'm impressed that she has any strands scraping WL.

If I were starting at SL or APL, the best I could hope for in a year's time is BSB.
