Growing as long as it will go! (The Terminal Goal Thread)

I always love photos of floor length hair

Little update, I've reached floor but only 71" so far. I have had the occasional breakage which might explain why. I don't know how much longer I'll wait but I don't have urges to cut just yet.

Oooohh so exciting! Congrats Spoons!

Aw thank you no you haven't missed anything, I was hoping to post pics with calling it and catch up on the thread at the same time, and that hasn't happened yet - though I need to use my laptop for something else this evening and LHCing is always easier on that, so maybe I will get to soon

Awwww *starry eyes* I want floor length photos! Congratulations!

Musical Spoons, that is so awesome that you are at floor. I got to midcalf and then lower calf but am at least 7-8 inches from floor. I DO want to see your hair!!!!! Please take at least one pic��

So happy for you MusicalSpoons!

Thank you all, you are so sweet

It's really nothing spectacular but here are a couple of anticlimactic pics, cross-posting from the Knee+ thread:

and a random style I did (then wrapped the length around) because I didn't want to lose the fluffiness at the top before putting it up properly for going out that day https://imgur.com/4JThIzh (It looks a bit weird because I'm kneeling on a deflated airbed, as that's the only way I managed to get it in decent focus with all my hair in the shot.)

At least it looks floor length from seated and standing height for anyone else so I don't feel too impostery calling it outside LHC either. Just it's very much not what people imagine when you say 'floor-length hair', or most of the hair you see on e.g. Instagram. But, it's mine and it is what it is

Your hair looks incredible MusicalSpoons!

I´ve read quite a few of older threads on the forum and/or older posts from 2009 and so on, and I noticed that a lot of people - I will say many if not the most of newbies - declared they wanted to grow to terminal. It´s tempting and inspiring, when you come and spend time at LHC, but how many people do you think actually ever achieved their terminal? My guess is... very few.
I was, of course, no exemption, but I´ve come to realize lately that terminal for me will not be anything too long... Based on taper my terminal might come even before classic. And if it grows past that, I don´t think I would let it beyond knee... What I mean is, most people probably imagined their terminal at floor with fabulously thick hemline. And that´s just not how it goes for most.

I'm worried about that too having a terminal shorter than hip, but let's face it I have trouble even getting out of the awkward stages of buzz to shoulder let alone aim for terminal

Wonderful, Spoons and I love your stockings lol
