Wore it out. I have the back curled under but I want this style as it is to be SL before claiming it.

to everyone who has made it!I will be claiming it when all the hair that hits about the middle of my ear makes it. So the area right above my nape.
My sides are just baaarely at my collarbone now.
Yeah, I figure I will just "know" once I get there. Lol. I cannot wait til the end of this month to see all the graduates.

Ok here is my faux length check. I haven't quite gotten the hang of taking pictures or holding my hair correctly for the length check. I am no where near SL yet so maybe June/July.
And I know people laugh when people say they have big heads or long necks but the distance from my crown to my nape + nape to base of my neck + base of neck to my shoulder (across the sloping part) = 1 plan ride, 2 train rides, a taxi ride + a fairy to SL.

I think I'm going to need a moon shuttle to get to APL
I know it's not a great shot but does it look like I have 2", 2.5", 3" to go? tia

Maybe on the sides but in the back (for me) I want it to be resting on the top of my back... at least!
Not a dumb question, the length markers can get a bit confusing.

Ok maybe this is a dumb question and maybe I am making it more complicated than it is. Is SL the point on the shoulder where the bra strap or shoulder strap goes over the shoulder? or is it futher down?
Was that clear?

We will hope for the best!!! If you aren't there, maybe you will be super close! I'm not getting married this year but I do hope to be apl by the time my day comes!
Congrats on the wedding too!!!

I agree. You are really, really close. I agree with the .5 to 1 inch. So you will be SL before summer -

Guess I shouldn't type so much. Question gets overlooked.
Ladies, about how much further does it look for SL for me? 2"? 2.5", 3"?
Please don't say more

I'd say about 2-2.5" and you're there!

2.5" - I won't lie, I am feeling discouraged. 
This feels like a shave my head day.
10" of hair for just SL?
Really? That's just ridiculous. 
And other people get SL at 6". I'm whining and pissed off. 
I bought a bun thing yesterday and before I tried it, my hair said What is that for? Then I put it on and I said, "Obviously nothing".
Just needed to vent. It's going to take me a minute to get over this. Maybe all of April.
Some of those happy emoticons were getting on my nerves. But this one made me laugh.

^^ don't be down @faithVA. I went through the same thing this morning in the APL thread. Your hair seems to be growing at a GREAT rate, and if it helps at all, you do seem to have a longer-than-usual neck 
Very regal actually, but I think it makes it take longer for you to reach SL than most people. You'll be there before you know it.

I found this pic in an earlier post...
Based on the length chart I'd say your at the start of shoulder length, and that's about 2.5 inches from full SL for me... Buy perhaps you should try measuring what that is for u

Thanks ladies for being there when I needed you. It's just been one of those hair weeks. And the measurement last night was just so disappointing. I know I will bounce back eventually but it will take me a minute.
Thanks for the chart ZeeontheGrow. I can never seem to find those when I am looking for them.

NikkiQ thats the same way i feel. I alos feel like my hair is not growing as fast as it did the last 2 months after i chopped. Maybe i have a long neck plus it looks like a I chopped i little more on my right side compared to my left which is SL but my right side needs almost 1 inch as per march length check.
I will be spotting a wig for the next two months and thats when i will do another lenght check. I hope to be 100% SL
I will start taking hairfinity as from next week.
so lets hope it will boost my hair growth

So are you waiting until the hair in the crown of your head reaches shoulder length before you claim it?

Yes. The weird thing is, if I take a twist from the crown, a twist between the crown and the nape, and a twist from the nape, they all reach to about the same point . My crown grows faster than my nape and it will probably reach SL before my nape.

I agree. It is easier to follow than the other one. Maybe because it is in color.
Ok Missjae09, if you are also at the start of SL, I will see if I can keep up with you.

Im at work, but clocked out mentally... So here I am passing the time on LHCF....
Since I only wash once a week, at least until the weather gets a lil warmer... I always look forward to my weekend washday :-D
I was so pleased with my Hair last week after DCing with Alter Ego, I'm thinking I'll do the same again this week...
Also gonna work on my new half wig this weekend. Bought the hair and supplies already.. Kinda excited. Think it's gonna turn out really nice :-D
Any weekend hair plans ladies?

I love the weekday washday too
erplexed. But I have promised myself that I am going to try to reduce styling my hair to every 2 to 3 weeks to stop playing in it so much. So no hair plans for me besides baggying.Tomorrow I have a big party and my twists are fuzzy and crazy. I am going to have to wear the heck of out my loc soc and try to create some style cuz the twists aren't getting redone.

Ok! lets do this!!! I'm excited... I'm cowashing, using my sulfur mix and taking hairfinity.
I will say, I'm not waiting for the the hair in my crown to get there because I have layers. The hair that is at the beginning SL mark is the hair that's neighboring my nape. lol

Were you shedding excessively before you used the AE?
