Hi :)

When I first joined in 2005 my hair was about NL or a little shorter(and very damaged)...now many many years later I am APL and will probably be this length for a while until my ends thicken up with regular trims.

I started with a bc to about 1 inch in 2009. When I joined lhcf I was around armpit length
Now I am at hip length.
 
When I joined the board, my hair was mid-back length. I was on a long relax stretch, and considering relaxing myself.

Since that time, I decided to completely transition out of the relaxer. Now I am 100% relaxer free, and my hair is shoulder length (when stretched/straightened). My coiled hair length is much shorter, of course (due to shrinkage). :blush:

I joined LHCF in June 2011 and this is a pic from Swotember 2012.

Not a huge amount of growth, but my hair is so much healthier, looks better, and most of all I was able to leave SL!

I started my hair journey "officially" in November of 2011. The 1st couple of pics are from July 2011 & Feb 2012. The last pics are from my last length check a week ago.

My July 2011 pic, my hair was shaved alittle in the back.

My hair was neck length relaxed (angled bob, tapered in the back), now it's BSL natural... before the bob cut it was SL relaxed.
 
I started my journey in January of this year. Originally I just wanted to find quality extensions and went on bhm to research them last May. Then it hit me, I could grow my hair too. I started lurking on luxgsm and paid for a membership not to long after.

This is where my hair started in February. My goal at that time was apl:

This was my hair in April:

By June after a year long stretc, I relaxed and had hit apl:

Sent from my HTC EVO using LHCF. *sigh* auto correct
 
Sorry, I hit send before posting the last pic. This is my hair as of yesterday after wearing more out styles, a touchup and a trim. I'm grazing bsb (in the "v" portion I am bsb) and have reached apl everywhere but the bang area:

When I first joined LHCF in October 2006, I was shoulder length. I went from that to armpit length in about a year or so. I was relaxed.

My hair stayed between APL and BSL for a couple years, then I big chopped in February of 2010.

I've gone from having about 1 1/2 inches of hair to natural hair that's just past chin length in its shrunken state and about APL when stretched.
 
This isn't a very good picture (Somehow I thought that putting deep conditioner then taking a pic was a good idea :ohwell:)

When i first joined as a non subscribed member i was i would say CBL or a little past (i dont really remember).....now im about MBL or grazing at least

My hair should actually be about 3to4 inches longer in the very back and most of the front and crown...but because i couldnt leave the flatiron alone i had to cut of heat damage:sad:

When I joined in late 2008, my hair was just APL (a few months into my hair journey).

In August this year, before my transition chop, it was Hip length.

This hair journey sure is something! Praise God is all I can say!:lol:
 
When I really started my hhj I was at a chewed up shoulder length and now I am fighting to reach mbl, I don't know why its taking so long! Anyway I'm thankful for the length I've obtained/retained.
