Just posting to inform those who still read my messages that I've actually started measuring some of the loose hairs that wind up on the counter after I shower: I've been growing my hair out from a very short buzz cut for just over a year (My last cut was in late February of 2002), and the average strand of hair that I come across measures apx. 17 centimeters.
By my calculations, that converts to about 6.75 inches. Keep it going. I am closing in on my one year without a trim at the beginning of April.
Peace,
Petros
CONGRATULATIONS to you too!
Hmmm... I'm around the same growth period and my hair measures about 10 inches from the top of my head downwards... interesting...
