How many inches from bottom of brastrap to your waist

[ms_kenesha]

I just used a folder to measure and it looks like mine would be about 8-9 inches from the bottom of my bra-strap! /images/graemlins/shocked.gif Wait that was with me sitting in my chair, I was using the hip measurement *whew*
It looks like it would be about 6.5" to waist (measured to belly button) /images/graemlins/smile.gif

The waist for me is in the middle of the curve a little higher than my belly button.

Me too. I measured to the smallest portion of my abdomen (the curve), with my sister's help, and it's 5" for me.

I took the liberty to look up the meaning of the word waist since there seemed to be some confusion as to where it is:

waist (w

st)
n.

1. 1. The part of the human trunk between the bottom of the rib cage and the pelvis.
   2. The narrow part of the abdomen of an insect.

About 6 1/2 inches from the bottom of my brastrap. I'am 5/7 1/2 tall. Happy Hair Growinh!

 

[hairlover]

i'm 5'4" and it is 6.5 inches from bottom of brastrap to my waist.

 

[tryn2growmyhair]

Huh? Huh?

For me it's 7...

This is a good question. I am tall so it will take me a while to reach brastrap. I am happy someone pointed this out.

 

[love2praz]

6 inches for me. Looks like the taller you are, the longer you have to go!

 

[Kha]

Around 5-6 inches...I'm about 5'8.

 

[songbyrd517]

Approximately 7 inches for me. I'm using my actual waist where it curves in, not the upper hip.

 

[FlowerHair]

This is really interesting. I'm sure most tall girls have to grow their hair for a longer time to reach waist length. I've also noticed that some people have a high waist and some not. Maybe some women wear their bra high or low too.

 

[Nanyanika]

I'm short so i'll guess around 3-4 inches before i hit waist length.

 

[CarLiTa]

Hmm so that's where the waist is??? the narrowest part of the stomach. Well technically that's where my belly button is.

so wow, waistlength for me is actually at 29" YAY!! so that means from bottom of brastrap (where I am right now) and my waist, is 5"!

SO, if i got 5" in 8 months, I HOPEFULLY can get the next 5" in 8 months as well.

Tailbone is at 31.5" but I don't think I wanna go there

 

[Jewell]

5-6 inches from bra strap to natural waist. I am only 5'2 and a half.
