Hello everyone,
Just curious if you all remember the point (while you growing out) when you finally looked in the mirror and went "Damn...my hair is finally long!"
I'm at 16 months, but my hair still feels short to me. Perhaps this is due to my desired goal of lower back/waist. Just wanted to get some insight from those who have already made it.
People tell me my hair is long but I dont really see it as long and don't really want to get it trimmed even if it's seriously due because of split ends (I very rarely cut it). My hair is about 30 inches or so (waist lenght, a bit longer maybe), I'm letting it grow longer.
Sounds great do post an update picture for us.

Looks great to me my friend and okay I'm not quite at belt length and do keep growing it. Unlike mine you got str8 hair and looks great, and BTW you got some native blood in you?
John.B
Yes. Quite a bit of Cherokee blood in my family.
Thanks for the compliment as well...I guess patience is part of the job!
Patience is the key, Zac.
I am probably aiming for midback length or longer but i don't tell myself that. I aimed for shoulder length initially, and now that i am almost there i have fulfilled my short term goal. Next goal is to get to past the shoulders etc. Take a step at a time and reward yourself everynow and then at how far you have come in your journey. That way it will make the growing out stages more enjoyable and you won't feel dissolusioned ad unrealistic at times.
Your hair looks unbeleviable already and will only get better as it grows. Considering you started from a 'shiny dome', lol.
Your hair looks amazing!! For me, when my hair All got to hang below my shoulders, I had that moment you spoke of. You are almost there. Enjoy. sj
Sure do. And it was about right where you are now.
To some extent, I've felt that sudden realization that my hair has long.
Your hair is look superb, Zac!

Just as 80's Metal said, it's better to take a step at a time. I am aiming for butt lenght hair and my hair is like almost shoulder lenght now, and to me it is already long for one simple reason - I have never had it this long and the feeling is great =) Obviously, I do realise that comparing to what my goal lenght is, what I've got now is still nothing, but it's surely enough to make a full ponytail, a half tail and almost a french braid. To me, this is already long =) and I'll so thrilled and happy with it...
Now, your hair is very nice, you have a beautyfull dark colour that goes astounishingly amazing with your skin tone and it's getting long. Your time will come fellow =)
Fairly recently I sort-of had 2 (actually about a week ago). I was standing in front of the mirror, looking at my hair. Then, suddenly, I thought "Whoa, my hair goes down THAT long?!" And about 2 days later, I'm running my hands through my hair, and suddenly it hit me that "Hey...[i]I[/i] have long hair! This is MY hair!" I still seem to think my hair isn't really *long* yet, but it's getting there.
Both were very nice moments.
