This is my second holiday season of growing out my hair, and it's getting better and better. Longer hair certainly takes more patience than when I had shorter hair, but at the same time it's a lot of fun.

Comments/questions/concerns/flames welcomed.
What a difference one year can make. Keep up the good work!!

great update----looks good----i don't say it often----but in the words of sorted, you may need just a little trim ...
I just got a tiny trim a few days ago. Something like about 1/8 of an inch in the back and sides, but I'll probably get another one by the end of the month or so.
Thanks.
Didn't realise I'm quotable... ;-)
looking good! Keep it up! (the progress, that is, not your hair. . .)
Excellent progress and great hair. The curls are expecially nice. Yours is a perfect example of how patience pays off when it comes to hair growth. Thanks for sharing your pictures. It is very encouraging.
Looking great. If you pull your bangs down, how far do they go?
When you got those trims, did they cut a small amount from all areas?
"Looking great. If you pull your bangs down, how far do they go?"
Thanks! My bangs go a couple of inches past my chin if pulled straight.
"When you got those trims, did they cut a small amount from all areas?"
No, the trims I've had so far have been on the back and some of the sides.
I love your hair in those curls! It looks really great, nice work.
