I don't really get what some of you guys mean by saying if you want your to grow long get it all evened-out. Does that mean have the sides as long as the hair in the back. The hair on the side of my head and bangs are down to my eyes and the hair in the back is down to my neck. Does evened-out mean i should get the hair on the sides of my head and bangs down even with the back of my hair down to my neck , like just let my bangs and hair on the side of my head grow until it is as long as the hair down to my neck and just let it grow from there. Also if you have thick hair does that make a difference. I want my hair to look all straight and nice not thick and bushy. Thanks you
First, some advice: don't ever become a politician. Your post nearly ran circles around my thought processing center. And if you knew my wife at all, you'd kmow THAT takes some doing.
If you have layers, you want to let all of them grow out. All of your bang hair is the same length, as apposed to being layered (which is what allows for layering, which is where you have multiple lengths within the bangs themselves). The same with the sides; all of the hair on each side is one length. Same with the back, too; all of the hair coming down the back is the same length. Whether or not the bangs are the same length as the sides, and the sides are the same length as the back, is a whole different matter.
If you want to have your sides shorter than your back, that's ok. Your hair can still grow out just fine, but if the sides or the back are layered, then your hair will look too thin as it grows out, and split ends will show more. By evening out all of the layers, your hair appears thicker, has a bit more weight, and flows better. This makes it easier to have it look good as you grow it out.
If you want an idea of what long hair looks like when it's all one length, I've got an old pic on the index page of my web site you can check out if you like. Select the link below.
