I Knew My Hair Was Growing When...

[Naturelie]

-When i got weave checked to the point i could feel the woman's breath on my neck.
-I could finally make a juicy hair bow bun.
-people started asking me for hair advice.
-My medium braids were past my shoulders.
-lost the desire to straighten ..strange i know.

I do understand you @ManiiSweetheart. I don't feel like straigtening my hair anymore (although I may do it in the future but only for a length check): want it to be big more than long!!!

I knew my hair was growing when I didn't have to blow dry it to get it into a bun.

When I washed in the kitchen sink and my hair would stop up the drain.

When it started getting constantly caught under my purse handles.

when I had to do two ponytails and then place those two pony's into one since I couldn't get all of my hair into one ponytail holder.
That's when I knew my hair had grown

When I went for the first long sunny walk of the year and realised I was hot solely because my hair was covering all the bare skin over the top of my back! That's never happened before

Today my bang (curly) kept getting caught in my purse strap! It's touching APL curly, WL when stretched. The rest of my hair is BSB curly.

When I got bangs cut at
17 I maintained them for 2 yrs without a trim due to poor hair practices

Whenever I wear buns and happen to be on a train or bus, I become that girl looking like "Do not touch my hair, don't you even get close to it!".
People always bumping my bun as they walk by. I swear they do it on purpose. I feel like touching them back
This is when I realized my hair grown. It can get frustrating too when I'm driving and I keep bumping my bun into the windows and mirrors. I'm still adjusting to this hair.

When what i used to consider doing a "puff" is now an Apl curly ponytail.

My curly ponytail now swings and can rest on my shoulder.

When i was in the shower yesterday combing my hair in sections and was able to fling my nape hair behind my back...it hangs Apl/bsb when wet...SL when dry.

When my coworker said "long hair don't care" to me w/my hair in its curly state

When my mom finally said to me yesterday that she thought my hair was pretty.

And now my curly ponytail almost reaches BSL! MBL when wet!
