Your ends look so thick and healthy, shaiyeh!

Corgeous hair, shaiyeh!

I was wondering if there was a thread like this. I felt like making one myself, but I didn't think it would survive as the 'waist to tailbone' thread is so popular. I also like the feeling of leveling up and graduating to the next thread, even though I am not too active in the growth threads. I still read them whenever there are updates. Also, hip to TBL (or even BCL) is a ridiculously long journey on my body as I am high hipped (and low waisted, so waist to hip is next to nothing, boring!). I am so happy my hairdresser actually didn't chop my hair all the way to the start of hip even though I requested that, because it would just take tooooo long. I chopped at New Year and ended up around halfway between hip and BCL. Now I seem to be a couple of months' growth away from BCL.

Welcome to the butt thread, Ylva! Rather, the “grow longer than your butt” thread I’m glad your hairdresser didn’t chop too much - I stopped going years ago because I always felt like when I asked for an inch they’d do three.

Thank you, Meggypoo! I've been in the other thread for a while, actually my hair was hip length for an eternity - many years before I even joined the LHC. Then I grew to TBL, but chopped halfway between hip and BCL to get rid of super thin, damaged ends. I hear about hairdressers cutting off way too much very often, so I was really surprised to have the opposite experience. When I went in for a microtrim, I requested that she take off 1 cm, but she took even less that time as well. That's why I'll reach BCL sooner than expected now.

I will, however, stall myself at TBL to get rid of more damage before continuing onwards to classic.

ETA: Oh, and congratulations for hitting HL! Just saw your post about that. Your hair is beautiful!

After a long chat with Hubby and hovering around Hip for a 2nd time, I have made the final decision to not pursue TBL.

I am very happy with Hip and feel TBL is just too long to manage for my type and age.

So...I thank you all for your advice and support ~ you are an inspiration

Happy growing

I completely forgot about this thread

My last post was 2 years ago and of course I changed my mind a few times since then

I ended up getting to TBL twice....each time cutting back to HIP....but I am headed back to TBL again (just brushing BCL).

Most likely I will keep it between these 2 landmarks; I dust monthly and do hemline maintenance quarterly, so my length will be fluctuating.

You all look great ~ happy growing
