So I know I didnt make it in 2009 but dog on it if 2010 aint my darn year! I think I am about 4 inches away.
1st Goal: APL by June
2nd Goal: BSB by Dec
Well, here's my NYE straightening attempt, and the first time I ever used my maxiglide. The line is kinda arbitrary since I had my arms up. I don't think I made APL, definitely not "full".
I was approximately 1/2 inch away in early December, so I think its safe to claim that my longest layer is APL. However I don't think I will reach full APL until maybe June 2010 since the front was much shorter than the back of my hair when i began my HH journey.
I think a few hairs, the ones closest to my armpit and probably the longest of the bunch, if stretched with all I've got can actually reach APL. (See?)
My hair is layered. The hair in the back is already there. The crown of my head has a good 5 inches to go I think. That's just an estimate. I would have made it this year, but I've been trimming a lot and I have a lot more to trim off still. So 2011 FULL APL? hopefully!
My hair is in layers as well...the bottom portion of my hair is APL, but I have about two more inches to be full APL...and I will always have layers of some kind...
I am thisclose.
I am at APL with a small portion of my hair in my nape but not enough to claim it.
I am very wary of claiming APL till I am FULL APL, I feel if I claim it too early then BSL will be miles away.
See, that hurdle (SL-APL) is a long stretch, probably the longest. I looked at some pictures on Fotki and I noticed that APL is about halfway to WL on most women, so at least then I know that when I am full APL, I'll be halfway to my goal and that the longest/worst hurdle is behind me.
I BC'd Oct 08 and I am still not quite there, so on me it's taking forever.
