I'm already at waist-lenght, so I guess...knee lenght is next, then I'll see if I keep growing or keep this lenght, or reach terminal lenght before that.
Mid to Lower back..unless terminal strikes b4.
Originally i wanted shoulder length hair but now that my hair is almost there it isn't long enough. I would say around mid back length. I want to be able to throw my mane over my shoulder and grab it, i want it to hang down my over my body, i want to be able to braid it and bun it etc. I would love waist length but due to the curly nature of my hair it would be alot harder to grow it that long. Time will tell.
how often do you wash your hair? if you're anything like a friend of mine (or myself) you could probably brush it straight(er) and wash it once a week when you're in a "curly" mood lol
Not to interrupt, but I just hope you know brushing can be extremely damaging to curly hair, particularly when its brushed straight. I used to do it, and let's just say there was a certain "yikes" factor later on.
Oh, and my goal is waist-length to butt-length, or just terminal, really. :)
yes i'm aware of that. i dont brush my hair more than 2 times a week. and the rest of the time i finger-comb and comb my hair to untangle it. my hair stays straight until it gets wet again...so i figured his would too
Cool, I guess. As long as you don't get any problems from it...
By the way...have you ever posted pics of yourself? If you have, I can't remember, sorry. I was just wondering how curly your hair actually is.
hehe no. i haven't posted pics of myself yet. i want to wait until i've reached the 1 year mark before i do that. i'm waiting for my scalp to get oilier so i just started taking omega-3 a few days ago. hopefully within the next few months my hair will look shinier and get a little heavier (more specifically the new growth lol)
Hello everyone!
Hello everyone!
Hello everyone!
Hang-in there 80s, you are well on your way, and if anything like myself, there is nothing else quite like being able to do these things. It feels wonderful! Nobody would realize what it is like unless they experienced it themselves. Just heavenly!
Yes, time WILL tell. You will know so much better a year from now just how your hair is going to react. And, I do believe you have the "smarts" to know exactly what suites you best.

Just as long as it will go which I hope equals EdG's length.
Personally, I've been trying to catch up to Absalom's length. This board is funny...

Hi Ed,
didn't you tell us, you have been trying to reach Danny's hair-length? You remember Danny, the floor-long-haired singer of the Australian band EYEFEAR? I always thought, that one day there will be another man with floor-length hair: Ed Grochowski. But now you tell us, that you are trying to reach only Absalom's hair length. Well, just as you please...

simply irresistable
Well, being only about 5 months into my growth, my current goal is for my hair to rest on my shoulders, which I suspect I'll have roughly by the end of this year. By the time I get there I'm sure the goalposts will have changed. I will likely want it longer. I'm pretty sure most guys do this when they reach their goal, that is, they get a new goal which is greater than their previous one.

My goal is for my hair to hang on my shoulders and upper back when dry even on a curlier day. Since my hair has started to hang around my neck and clavicle when wet, I suspect I need extra length to compensate as the hair curls when dry. I would like also to be able to put my hair in halftails and pull all the hair into a tail.
My hair is odd because it starts out straight when wet, then wavy but curly ends when damp. Yet its strange that it often takes several hours before my hair reverts totally to its puffy and curly nature. The roots of the hair are the last to curl back because of the weight holding them down. Its especially annoying with my bangs because they like to curl away from the side which looks peculiar.
No particular goal - As long as it will grow.

next target: waist-length
total target: as long as it grows ...
For now I'm aiming for butt lenght... after a certain point of my life I'm surely going to gor wit to terminal lenght (which I hope os far away from butt lenght =) )
After seeing how great your hair looks at shoulder-length, it's going to look incredible as it gets longer!
My first goal was tailbone length, which I have reached now (yay! :-) ).
Now I'm going for classic length (below butt), but i'm pretty sure that when I reach that goal I'll go for longer, as long as it can get, unless it gets uncomfortable.
No plans to stop growing anytime soon.
Somewhere between mid-back and waist length, or maybe longer? I have very thick hair, so I have a feeling I could grow past waist length.
Yeah mine's the same as about how much malendras' goal length....it's hard to explain the length since it has no particular name like(midback, waist, shoulder, etc..). But it's about stomach length(belly button) something like that.
and yes i have thick hair too.
I won't call myself a longhair until I can do a tail, so thats my immediate unquestioned goal. But knowing me I am never satisfied and waist length hair is so awesome so thats a longterm goal.
No particular goal. Just gonna let it grow until it stops or until I feel like "that's long enough"
Jim
Same goal since starting nearly four years ago, as long
as possible. Currently the very ends reach waist length.
Technically I could say I already have waist lenght hair, but it's wavy and has grown into a natural V shape because it hasn't been trimmed for years. Hence only the tip of the V reaches my waist, and only if I pull it straight. I reckon I need to grow the longest part of my hair to maybe classic length to actually look like I have waist length hair, so that's probably my goal.
My hair type is both fine and thin, so breakage tends to reduce growth a bit. It also means that I never really look like I have lots of hair, no matter how long it is.
Current goal: floor or terminal, whichever comes first (almost certainly terminal)
Current length: thigh
Former goals were: 3 feet, then 4 feet, and then still 4 feet, even though I was past.
