Growing Your Hair Out For the Wedding?

[DreaW]

I grew out my hair for the wedding....but I have cut it short since then.

I know I am getting extensions for the wedding, they are not cheap but hoping they will giv my said little horse main some fullness

LOL I went SO crazy growing my hair out. We were engaged for over a year so I let mine grow the entire time! I am waiting til my AHR is over and I am so going to get something done with it. Either try a body wave or get it chopped!

I've been growing it out since the summer when I chopped it off. I've been wearing it in a messy bun for the past 6 months because I hate when it's long. I seriously am cutting it all off as soon as I get home from Jamaica!

I am so annoyed with how slow my hair is growing! I recently saw a pic from last year and was shocked at how much my hair has grown...but in everyday life I can't tell.

I grew mine out for 6 months, and it was just long enough to put up in a simple twist (was ear length and stacked in the back when I started)! Its about should length now, and all I do is tie it back in a ponytail,.. I guess its time to get my butt in the hair dresser's chair soon!

I am letting my hair grow too. I think I like it better short (never thought I'd say that since my hair has been long most of my life) however I know I want it up for my wedding day. I want to be able to pull it all back and have no pieces sticking out. It been growing pretty fast so I'm praying that it's long enough by next year. There are so many myths about how long hair grows...eg: 1/2 inch every month, but I'm not sure what is true. My brother's a hair stylist and he said it depends on the person hair. So I dunno.

I'm going through this right now. I cut my hair into a long "posh" cut a few month ago, now it is in that awkward grow out phase past my shoulders but not long enough to be considered long. I HATE IT. Steve wants me to grow it back out long again, but I want it short.

 

I'm going to the hairdresser on Friday and I hope that I have the willpower to not tell her to cut it short again!

 

Just an FYI though. I started using "Aveda" shampoo and conditioner a few months ago and my hair has become SO healthy since. I used Paul Mitchel before and I prefer the Aveda.

I've measured my progress & it's been a little over a 1/2 inch a month. That's probably a good estimation, but people do vary. I wanted to see how much long it would be by june. It should be plenty long.

I've never really thought about it, so before I heard the 1/2 inch thing I would have believed anywhere from 1/16th of an inch to 2 inches.

LOL We are all "Posh" lovers on this forum! I'm always reading people referring to their hair style as "Posh's", it's too funny. She was my inspiration too! Gotta love that gal! I see her on TV and I'm like "OH THAT'S IT, I'm CUTTIN IT OFF!!" And I call Jeff (brother) and he's like "Um - no...go take a nap!" hahahahaha
