I voted other because I missed something because not to hell would my edges grow. Before I did a major cut in October, the left side of my hair was thin, my edges don't grow and something was going on with the back. I'm now trying to decide how to relax my hair so that my troubled areas would grow. For instance, I need a way to do my relaxer, instead of parting my hair in 4 sections, I was wondering if there was another way to do that. Also I plan to apply a Profectiv product on the processed hair only, concentrating more on the left side, because I don't understand why my left side should be thinner. I've heard a lot of people attribute this to the fact that I probably sleep on that side of my head but I don't know. At this point, I'm willing to try anything.

What's your ultimate goal length? My ultimate goal length is MBL
How close are you to reaching it? Not sure, havent measured my hair in a while.
Did you set a date/year to reach that goal by? I've set a date of Dec. 31, 2010 to reach the goal, but honestly think I can make it by sometime in May or June.
How confident are you that you will reach that? I am extremely confindent that I will reach my goal and on time.

^^^^^^^^^^Just curious.
I thought about it today. I was just wondering what length will I get to, and be perfectly content with it.
Question time:
What's your ultimate goal length?
BSL or MBL depending on care required and ability to continue to have styles I like. I'll see how I feel when I get there.
How close are you to reaching it?
I still have a while to go to get to BSL.
Did you set a date/year to reach that goal by?
I would like to be there within 2 to 2 1/2 years of my LHCF anniversary.
How confident are you that you will reach that?
Pretty confident (thanks to all of the wonderful knowledge shared by the awesome ladies here!!)I was MBL as a child but did not know how to care for my hair properly.
****If you have surpassed your goal already, please share.

MBL unstretched, HL stretched.
How close are you to reaching it?
I'm currently rolling up on BSL.........
Did you set a date/year to reach that goal by?
No, I'd make myself crazy if I did.
How confident are you that you will reach that?
100%!! My hair grows and since I've given up heat (I used to blow dry and flat ironing with EVERY wash - I know, crazy right??), I've put a complete stop to the split ends. Soooooo........I know I'll get there.

How close are you to reaching it? Well i kinda fell off my hair care regimen bandwagon two months ago and I'm now getting back into it with fenugreek treatments and garlic/coconut oil treatments. So i estimate 2 years (is that too little time?). I am about APL.
Did you set a date/year to reach that goal by? well 2 years would be great but amma give myself 3 yrs (I have become very inconsistent lately)
How confident are you that you will reach that? 50%

What's your ultimate goal length?
My ultimate goal is blunt hip length with a thick hem line.
How close are you to reaching it?
I'm 3 inches to it
Did you set a date/year to reach that goal by?
Yes. I am in a challenge to reach hip length by the end of this year. Afterwards, I plan on maintaining the length and trim it every 3 months to thicken the hem line.
How confident are you that you will reach that?
I''m very confident

MBL---->can't wait!!!!!!
How close are you to reaching it?
Just eye balling it maybe 4, 5 inches?
Did you set a date/year to reach that goal by?
No date, I feel less pressured that way! I'll reach it when I reach it
How confident are you that you will reach that?
Now that I actually see my hair growing and understand my hair better, very confident I'll reach my goal - I just have to be patient (easier said than done!)

What's your ultimate goal length?
Waist Length Hair
How close are you to reaching it?
A few good inches - more like 4 or 5
Did you set a date/year to reach that goal by?
I think I can hit it by summer 2011
How confident are you that you will reach that?
If I can stay true to the protective styles, and I don't lose tons of hair postpartum, I'm pretty sure I can reach it.

What's your ultimate goal length? I was just thinking, up until recently, that BSL was my goal length and I wouldn't go past that. Now that I'm so close to it (within about 1.5 inch), my feelings have changed and I think I want to go MBL--so that I can trim more often and still be in the BSL-MBL range.
How close are you to reaching it? I'm about 3-4 inches from MBL
Did you set a date/year to reach that goal by? Dec 2010 maybe.
How confident are you that you will reach that? Pretty darn confident.

Hip length (unstreched)
How close are you to reaching it?
Ummm, yeah... Not very close since I cut my hair in October.
Did you set a date/year to reach that goal by?
Nah. It happens when it happens.
How confident are you that you will reach that?
Pretty confident...as long as I don't get bored and chop it off.

What's your ultimate goal length? Full bra strap length, with a slight 'u' shape.
How close are you to reaching it? I'm will be reaching full APL this year. My hair grows in 3 layers for some reason. But my longest layer is about 2-3 inches from my bra strap. (My BSL is close to my APL by 2-3 inches). I say give me a full year for most of my hair to be BSL.
Did you set a date/year to reach that goal by? By my graduation date of May 2011, but I'll reach it by then.
How confident are you that you will reach that? Very confident. My hair just grows on its own anyway... The trick is to maintain it and prevent too much breakage-- that's my problem.

Unstretched??? How's your shrinkage? Unstretched hip length hair could be very, very long, depending on shrinkage!

What's your ultimate goal length?
I really don't know
erplexed
I say hip length; but it will probably be terminal length unless it ends up just being too much hair.
How close are you to reaching it?
half way there
Did you set a date/year to reach that goal by?
another 2-3 years for longest layer; 4-5 years for shortest
How confident are you that you will reach that?
I expect it to happen but I still sometimes have my doubts (3 to 5 years is a long time)

What's your ultimate goal length? Tail bone Length
How close are you to reaching it? Last time I straightened my hair (January 2010) I had made it to WL, and my torso is pretty short so not too far off.
Did you set a date/year to reach that goal by? If my hair grows the normal 6 inches per year I would make it round the end of 2010, but my hair only grew like 3 inches last year and by that rate it will be the end of 2011, most likely. However last year I hardly exercised (due to a broken limb) and was on and off w/ taking supplements, so that could have been the problem.
How confident are you that you will reach that?
I some times have a bit of doubt and start thinking I may have reached my terminal length, but for the most part I stay confident that I'll reach my goal.
