beadedgirl said:Yeah i totally get what your sayin' meia..........But for me i haven't seen hardly any "NATURAL LONG 4A HEADS" only chemically treated at that length.As a black woman she is inspiration,and proof that we can grow hair at great lengths!!!!!!!!!!!
If anybody seen any PLEASE POST THEM!! .....................Thanks,
mad:dissapointing) but im going to have to make that trek step by step.. until then i gotta keep my head up..atl_mulattamami said:nobody said anything about looking like that in two years??
I know that, I just stated in my post that a twa wasn't going to look like that in 2yrs. Going along w/ most here are inspired by someone else with their own hair type.
anyway i used to post on NC.com and on there she claimed to be a 3c so i'm running with that. i don't plan on having hair that long...my goal is closer to her 25 inches shots...
but that doesnt mean she can't be an inspiration to all refer to what I wrote to Porchse and mermaid...
and what does being mixed have to do with anything.
Lets be real, the MAJORITY of women of color that I see in the south who grow their natural, un-stretched, un-flat ironed, un-pressed hair that long are biracial. It is a RARITY to see a black woman who was born to two AA parents with unstretched hair that long that has not been thermally or chemically treated.
im mixed too does that mean i cant post here?
Please show me where I said mixed folks can't post here?im not trying to debate/argue with you here so please dont get upset...your post just confused me is all

That comes from me seeing and hearin' type four folks talkin' about how they want representation.
And women w/her hair type who aren't mixed SHOULD be inspired by her hair. Hence, if they have similar hair types then, I think there is more room for inspiration. Shoot, I even mentioned earlier how her hair type wasn't too much diff, than mines and that she was an inspiration to me (my curls are a bit tighter), and may very well be to some of the other posters in this thread.
in a good way! 
I understand where Koffee is coming from to tho, as the same thought crossed my mind. I also understand the need to see someone like yourself working with your same hair type reach long hair goals. People dont always know what they are capable of so seeing someone in your same situation acheive a goal starts to break down the mental mindset that you cant do it and expands your horizons. I think we can agree that some hair types are more fragile than others, where even tho they can get to mega-lengths, they require more/different care to avoid breakage and thinning. It takes a long time to get over mainstream brainwashing about black hair. This site and the members here reaching their goals, regardless of type, are an inspiration to me. In any event, I think we can all celebrate another long haired sista!!

Nooo, not short memories, lol! I just don't frequent the hair board, I mainly hang out in the OT board. Den1 and Adrienne are familiar here- Adrianne's hair used to be the title banner for LHCF. I rarely go to other hair boards., so I'm not up on who has what length hair.Mahalialee4 said:
