I’ve thought
a lot about how much longer I should keep growing. I feel my ends are notably
thin now, maybe not so much when it’s dry and loose (My hairs tendency for mad
volume makes them fluff up) but I feel it’s just too thin to even bother to
braid anymore.
I do think
it would be kind of cool to see if I could make my hair touch the floor, but
that would take me another two years or so if I don’t get any trims.
But going
trim-free again is out of the question. With the ends being as thin as they
are, I will definitely need some trims to keep them in decent shape.
So with
trims, it would take me another three years or so. Just to see my hair touching
the floor. Hmm. Doesn’t seem worth it, does it?
But then
again, I can always let it grow and see how it goes.
No matter
what happens, I can always take it back to the length I was the happiest with:
Slightly above mid thigh aka “reach length”.
That was
long enough to do all the cool styles I love, and more manageable because I didn’t
have to be “creative” to tend to the ends.
Maybe I
should just go for some small trims and see how it goes?
That’s the
beauty of hair: It just keeps growing if you don’t screw it over too badly.
