I'm 5'5 and measuring from my hairline

el= 12
nl= 15
sl= 17
apl= 21
bsl= 24
mbl= 26
wl= 28

currently= 22

Wow this is encouraging. I'm only 2 inches away from bra strap:drunk:.
 
ok... i dont think i did it right :( this is what i got

el=n/a
nl=n/a
sl=n/a
apl=n/a
bsl=21"
mbl=???
wl=24"
hl=29"
tbl=33"
cl=38"

i'm currently slightly under 24.5"
and i'm 5'5
 
I am in braids now so i cant get my current lenght but here is what I think my measurments are.

From hairline:

APL - 22
BSL - 26
MB - 28
WL - 32
 
These types of things are so much fun.

Here's my chart:

HairChart-vi.jpg


It's a little bit outdated...I made it in January.
Measuring from my hairline:

el= n/a
nl= n/a
sl= n/a
apl= 19" (Made February 2010)
bsl= 22.5" (~ December 2010)
mbl= 24 (~ June 2011)
wl= 27 (~ January 2012)
hl= 32 (It's not on the chart, but I measured) (~ February 2013)
tbl= n/a (At the moment, I plan on stopping at HL)

Current length= 20"

Great thread, Op!

This is great! Can't get any more acurate than a real picture.
 
This is awesome
I also wish the chart had APL and that collarbone length someone made up a few months ago because I think its longer that SL and I liked the sense of accomplishment. LOL ;)
I'm not even APL so my measurements would be silly but if I see a measuring tape I'll try.
ETA: I totally did see Chaosbutterfly's post with her picture Neva mind. Now thats what I'm talking about! thanks Chaosbutterfly!!!! I love it!

i'm way too lazy to measure all this right now...but how are you ladies measuring?? because when i measured like

tapeoverhead.jpg


i got WL @ 30 inches,

but when i measured from my hair line just straight down the side, i got WL as 24 inches...thats like a whole yr's worth of growth difference
 
Ok I measured from my hairline straight back that way I can be sure to place the tape in the same place every time.
el=10
nl=12
sl=15
apl=22
bsl=25
mbl=27
wl=30
hl=32
tbl=37

Current length=20
Height=5'4" and 3/4's

These measurements are leading me to believe I am awkwardly shaped. :/
 
What a great idea!
From crown:
el=6.5
nl=10
sl=12
apl=16.5
bsb=19
mbl=21
wl=23
hl=26.5
tbl=30

Current length=21.5
Height=5'1"

This means I should be HL by next year. Woohoo!
 
I measured from both my hairline and my crown but since my hair is layered, I prefer to use the crown as a my preferred method:

Crown:

el=n/a
nl=n/a
sl=14"
apl=17"
bsl=20.5"
mbl=22"
wl=25"
hl=29"
tbl=31"
cl=n/a

Current Length: 20 inches

el=n/a
nl=n/a
sl=17"
apl=20"
bsl=22.5"
mbl=24"
wl=27"
hl=31"
tbl=33"

Current Length: 22 inches

I am 5'7.5"

So OBVIOUSLY I'm pretty normal so I'm gonna stop giving the short torso excuse. I'm 5'6.5

From hairline


sl:n/a
apl: n/a
bsl: 23
mbl: 25.5
wl: 28
hl: 31

I don't desire to go longer than HL.

Current length is unknown since I am in braids but I will not be measuring my hair and determining my goals based on inches. I will continue to use body areas and pictures.

This is a good way to gauge how long it will take to get to the next goal point. If you know how much u gain in a month or average in a year. I can see that if I continue doing what I'm doing I should be at waist length by the end of 2011.

This was kind of hard to do, I hope it's accurate... I swore my hair was longer, but this is what I got...

I'm 5'7
Current length from hairline: 20 inches
apl=18
bsl=23
mbl=25
wl=28
hl=31

I'm on my way...:grin:

I was way off with these measurements.

BSL - 24
MBL- 27

Im currently 23 1/2" hoping to get to 27" by dec 2011.
 
Doesn't one need to straighten their hair to get an accurate measurement? Pulling natural hair isn't accurate IMO.
 
So cool! I took these measurements a couple of weeks ago.
I'm not sure exactly where MBL should fall, which is my ultimate goal. It looks like everybody's counting it about 1-2" from BSL. So I'll guess I'll go with the average of 1.5" from BSL = MBL. Does that sound right?

From my crown to MBL is 22".Measurements from crown as of June 19, 2011
Current Length – NL total 3.5-4.5" all over.

I'm 5'6 3/4" tall.

SL – 14”
APL – 18.25”
BSL middle -- 20.5” (middle of bra strap of black Olga bra, just my own reference!)
MBL – 22”
