Hello everyone!

   I am a new member with hair to my waist.  I was wondering how many of you ladies here have hair to your knees or longer?  I am amazed that anyone's hair will grow that long!  Mine seems to be at terminal length just past my waist around the top of my butt.

Does anyone here have floorlength hair?  Thanks for such a wonderful site.

Jim

Bikerbraid,

   I see you have one more day on crutches!  Did you have a bicycle accident and injury?  Glad to see you're about to lay them down.  How long is your braid, by the way?

Jim

Hi there,
also new here. hair is 56 inches long and about calf lentgth. Tapering off somewhat now and i believe it my hair has reached its terminal length as no growth in past few months.Pity as i was wanting to see if it would reach ankles.
As jim previously stated this is a great site wirth plenty of encouragement to maintain long and healthy hair irrespective whether or not it is grown by either a man or a woman. From a personal point of view it is great not to be stigmatised for daring not to conform to the norm and have the stereo typical short male hairstyle.

Welcome Jon!

You have reached a rare length - congratulations.  Your hair may still grow longer.  I know of a number of people with extreme length that have experienced several months of minimal or no growth.  These resting periods can be frustrating, but give it time - you may still reach your goal.

LOL!  Lots of people initially have that image, but no, I am a human-powered biker.  However, my bike is a recumbent bike, so I ride in a position similar to the chopper.  My current avatar shows Sir Rat's rendition of me on my bicycle (but I always wear a helmet when biking).

Hi Jon!
Welcome and your hair is beautiful.  Hope to hear more of your journey to longer beautiful hair!

Hi guys,
thanks for all the support. great to read about everyones viewpoint on having or endeavouring to have longer hair.
Regarding jim's earlier question i started growing hair long in late teens. Until then hair had been rather short and ordinary. Initially hair grew just though not being bothered to getting it cut. As it grew i became aware of how versatile my hair could be and how i could vary the styles through either braids,pony tails,wearing hair loose or indeed partially loose with interwoven plait or pony tail. Being short i was very much restricted as to how i could vary my look.By my early to mid twenties my hair was being maintained at mid back length. Liking the attraction i was getting for perhaps being rather unusual in having relatively long hair i became curious as to how long my hair could grow. Round about 1994 i made a conscious effort to grew my hair even longer and by about my 33rd year i reached waist length which  found easy to maintain. Hair remained and this length until about 2000 (33inches roughly). At the new year going into the year 2000 i made a new years resolution to grow my hair to its terminal length. I cannot think as to why i decided this. May be it just because subconsciously i had developed a great love and fascination for long hair. Hair  gradually increased in length by about 6 inches per year( regular trims of about an inch every 6 months or so).Growth was maintained until last summer when it all of a sudden it appeared  to stop growing. I just use a regular anti dandruff shampoo (scalp can be flaky at times ) and don't really use any speciall treatment on hair apart from washing in luke warm water.I also use wide toothed comb and good quality bristle hair brush. Currently about mid calf length.Rarely wear hair loose, tending to wear hair in single plait which is also style i adopt when sleeping.Don't use hair dryer either. After washing hair i am prone to settingup a clothes horse behind my chair and draping hair though it, allowing it to partialyy dry while i sometimes go for a snooze!.
Currently not in a relationship.Don't know how my wife or girlfriend would react to having partner with hair longer than them. Sometimes people can be cruel and make unfair judgements on my sexuality such because i am so long haired and not in a relationship at present.
Don't worry as i am quite happy at present and i do have many friend both male and female who accept me for who i am- heterosexual by the way!. Live and let live is what i say. I personally do not have any hang ups regarding how anyone should live their life or pass any judgements on how a person should look.In saying that i probably would appreciate that everyone keep themselves relatively clean and tidy. Any way i think i am beginning to ramble on a little too much.
Take care for now.
