Yep!!  7 compliments in 1 afternoon (last saturday).  It was 3rd day hair too!  5 of the compliments were from women (ages vary) and 2 men (both long hairs).  I had decided to leave my hair down for the day as I had another headache so people saw it out (grocery shopping, running errands).  It is growing, I cut off an inch on the 5th, and seems to have replaced it already. Spring growth spurt I guess.  The wind was blowing just a bit and lifting the ends.  It looked sooo cool like that.  I am maintaining at fingertip for now so I suppose that is real long hair for a lot of people, and most dont see it in public very often.  I got compliments such as: beautiful, just beautiful!  Or, wow!! that is gorgeous!!  One lady even stopped to tell me she liked my hair.  The men just smiled and nodded.
