How tall are you?

[taz007]

5'9 and it is taking forever to get to APL.

 

[Bellanica]

I'm 5'3 with a short torso and very long legs. I never even thought about the inches it would take to reach BSL before, but now I am gonna measure. I wonder if body proportion factors into things at all? I would imagine so.

 

[tatambabyy]

5'10 checkin in!

 

[fobaker]

I'm 5'11" and I have a long neck so it's going to take me longer to get to each level of growth.

 

[Duff]

I'm 5'9" with long back and neck....

 

[Tinkerbell19]

Im 5'6

 

[arosieworld]

IRL I'm 5'5" so I voted that but I lie and tell everyone that I'm 5'6". Don't say anything.

 

[Sweet Charm]

5' 11. its going to take me forever to get to MBL

 

[Giggletush]

5'10 checking in. Not even close to BSL, but luckily even before my healthy hair care journey my hair grew quickly on its own, so I hope that with the extra care I'm putting into it now, it won't let me down

 

[AtlantaJJ]

I'm 6' with a long goose neck. BSL ain't all that

 

[luckiestdestiny]

I'm 5'5 but I'm already slightly past MBL. I don't measure exactly, but I know I'm over three inches past lower brastrap and a few inches away from waist. I was mbl in dec as I'm natural I don't know what I am now as I haven't done a length check since as I've been braided up.

 

[Diam0ndiva]

5'9 , short neck, not sure length but im shoulder..

 

[Jaxhair]

5'7''. I didn't understand exactly where the nape was but now I do, thanks to google. Always assumed it was where the hairline ended, but I'll measure mine from the last cervical vertebrae (excuse the geekiness, lol).....

As this is where my hair ends, that makes me 9'' away from BSL? if I measure from the hairline at the nape, then I need 13'' to make BSL. That makes my nape length only 4 inches.....

girl tell me about it.. 444444EVERR!!!

 

[SherylsTresses]

Great thread! I'm actually 5'2 1/2"--gots to add that half. Because I'm short, so I should reach WL quickly...!!!

 

[yardgirl]

I'm 5'4-ish. Sometimes I think I'm closer to 5'5.

 

[Sunrise]

5ft 10/11ins with long neck & torso. Dusted my hair a few days ago so just touching APL (21 Months Natural).

No idea about measurements. Do know that thanks to my Paternal Grandmother, I have a low hairline so that a perimeter of up to an inch so, I should get there a tad quicker.

 

[SweetSpirit86]

5'8"..no clue about the other measurements either. However, I'm all legs, and have a short torso.

 

[Sapphire_chic]

5"8.7 so just under 5"9. bottom bsl is 14 inches from the nape on me.

 

[chrisanddonniesmommy]

5'2 without any clue about the measurements, lol.

 

[Nouvelle]

I'm shorter than 5' 5" so I'm in the category of a midget.

 

[takincareofme]

I'm tall, 5'10-5'11 but my height is in my legs. I think I have an average person's torso and a freakishly high waist. It is about 13' or 14' for bsl (about 12' for bsb) looking straight forward. It is about 18' for wsl for me. We are measuring from the nape right?

 

[kittykhat]

I'm 5'1.5". I'm short. Lol.

 

[Nouvelle]

I'm 5'1.5". I'm short. Lol.

We're in the same boat I'm so short I have to stand on my tiptoes to reach things in the grocery store erplexed.

 

[kittykhat]

I know right! I work in the fottwear department and I'm always using step ladders. Lol.



ETA: To Nouvelle

 

[Pink Hair23]

I'm 4'9", so BSL for me is about 10 inches from the nape. In my profile pic, my bra strap seems high but my torso is only about 16 inches long! APL and BSL are only a few inches apart.

ETA: To Nouvelle

I totally understand I have to sometimes look up at people lol.

 

[Adaoba2012]

I'm 5'9" and I am prepared for the long journey to MBL!! I don't know how many inches though..I think measuring would discourage me..lol

 

[CandiedLipgloss]

I'm 5'2 and sooo wish I was tall like some of you ladies here.

 

[babyb900]

I'm 5'8". I know I have a ways to go before I reach BSL. Luckily for me, my hair grows exceptionally fast.
