I have never done it. I just did the simple test, that is, stretch the twist to eyeball the length. In all honesty, I can't say that I've ever known the longest length of my hair. Since I'm starting a new hair challenge on 1 September, I thought this would be a good time to take a measurement so that I can 1) learn how fast my hair grows in a month and 2) determine exactly how much growth I gain and length I retain over a period of six months.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5920157160853414405.post-90548685405837275502011-08-26T09:31:22.850+01:002011-08-26T09:31:22.850+01:00@AfroChique: It's pretty awesome when you can ...@AfroChique: It's pretty awesome when you can have such a chilled out attitude to your hair.<br />@LaShon James-Major: That's a good way to do it.

I remember our teacher photocopied it a weird, so it came out at just .2 less than a centimetre. Even to this day, that still annoys me! And bobs are cool. Mullets...eh, not so much.<br />@Kayla and HairItis: I'm quite a fan of delayed gratification - it's a wonderful thing seeing the accumulation of your work!<br />@CocoaChick: Thank you!

I usually don't worry about exactly how many inches my hair is at any given moment, but coincidentally just last night I pulled out my tape measure and did exactly this...measured how long my hair is. I had a moment of curiosity I suppose...LOL. I do have a length goal, and try really hard to suppress the urge to whip out the measuring tape...for reasons of sanity. :0)Mikkimuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12078432050245236128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5920157160853414405.post-66387519632862842872011-08-24T10:04:48.562+01:002011-08-24T10:04:48.562+01:00I so agree!

It is better to look at hair every 3-4 months when there would be something to see.Jchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03983132094574128087noreply@blogger.com
