Its gonna take me way longer than you......

[Bublin]

....to reach APL, MBL, WL..........

I was just thinking...............i'm 5'11. Without running the risk of describing myself as looking like a giraffe i have long proportions ie a long (elegant ) neck, longer than average torso, long legs.....

Therefore it's going to take me and my tall self a hell of a lot longer to reach my goals than someone whom is say, 5'1" with much shorter body parts.

I have a friend who has inbetween APL and MBL hair but she is 5'1". If she took her hair off and put it on my head i would probably have just past SL hair!!!

 

[JuiceMobsta]

I'm 5'4

 

[Eluv]

I have the same problem on top of slow grow rate of .25" a month.

I'm 5'9" with a long neck & torso:

SL to APL is 6"
APL to BSL is 4"

But once I reach BSL the rest average out for me

 

[Neek-a-Nator]

I'm 5'1" but I have a long (elegant, lol) neck as well, believe me ppl always remind me.

 

[Bublin]

Yikes, i just measured

6 freakoid inches from SL to APL
5 freakoid inches from APL to BSL

 

[lovenharmony]

I don't have that problem...I'm 5'2" But it's not always easy for us shorties neither! A slow grower is a slow grower, and that I am. I see many modelesque tall women round these parts getting from SL to APL in 6 to 8 months. When I was relaxed, it took me 2 years imma just have to be paitient and hope that my growing phase is longer than 2 years

 

[alive]

lol. i love how candid this thread is. it's all good though. shorties get to look like they have long hair, tallies get to be elegant and modelesque. Sounds even to me

 

[Yoshi3329]

HA! I beat you all!

I'm 4'9! 6 inches is Collar bone length, 10 inches is about BSL.

Bwahahaha!

Worship me.

 

[Chaosbutterfly]

I'm 5'3, and am reaching my goals kind of on time. I do agree that my height helps.
But truth be told, I'd rather have your height, elegance and grace.
You can always grow out your hair, but you can't grow out short, stubby arms and legs.

 

[Imani]

I'm 5'1

Nape to bottom of neck- 3 inches
Full NL to SL- 2 inches
SL to APL-4 inches

 

[Prettyeyes]

I didn't know you were that tall Bublin!! I am 5'3''

 

[glamazon386]

I have a long neck too. i'm not that tall though. I'm only 5'8". I feel like I've been trying to get to APL forever.

 

[Bublin]

^^ Exactly. Its taking forever to get to APL even though my growth rate is slightly above average at the back half of my head.

At PrettyEyes - oh yes, the weather up here is fine but a bit cloudy LoL

 

[Chevelure618]

I hear you Bublin

I am just under 5'11" too and it is a longgg way from APL to BSL. It's been really tough. I know I'd be MBL on someone elses body.

I may have changed my goals though. On women our height BSL looks like MBL so when I get to a full BSL, it'll probably look really long.

Funny, but on me, MBL is just 2 inches from BSL. I have a reallly long neck, shoulder blades and torso.

Hang in there.....tall wome look GREAT in long hair.

 

[cinnespice]

I am 6 feet tall
And i never thought about that

 

[Prettyeyes]

Just imagine how fabulous your BSL will be though!!!

 

[SimJam]

Im 5'4 and its


6 inches to CBL
7 inches to fulSL
11 inches from nape to APL
4 inches from SL tp APL
4.5 inches from APL to BSL

I think its a good trade off for us shorties lol. oke:
Im jelly of tall people, and Im not ashamed to say

I have a friend who has inbetween APL and MBL hair but she is 5'1". If she took her hair off and put it on my head i would probably have just past SL hair!!!

I feel where you are coming from......I am 6ft 3in tall......
I just take my length as it comes. I cannot imagine how long it would take for me to make MBL or WL. I am shooting for APL and thats it.

SL to APL is 6"
APL to BSL is 4"

But once I reach BSL the rest average out for me

I'm only 5'7 and these stats are close to mine.

SL-APL is 5"
APL-BSL is 3-3.5"

 

[Sianna]

IDK, I may have lucked out on this one... I'm tall, (which I LOVE ) but really most of my height comes from my legs! I'm nearly 5'9" but my neck is not really long and neither is my torso. Its gonna take me about 5-6" to get to SL and about 10" total to get to APL. I've never made it to either as of yet, but I've measured enough times to be fairly confident about those numbers.

 

[LadyRaider]

From what I can see in your picture, the distance between your shoulders and your armpits is a lot smaller than mine, even though you are much taller.

Are you sure a lot of your height isn't in your legs?

Wow. We should have a Tall Girls Support Thread or a Long Neck Support Thread. No shorties aloud cus we are jealous of you all reaching your hair goals way before us. Lol.

yup...its all about proportions.

 

[shunemite]

5'10" here! I know I know, tall women need to gain a lot more of everything before anyone notices........... hair and weight. We'll get there we'll get there. I'm shooting for shoulder length right now in the braid challenge, sometimes I have to spend extra and buy longer hair so I don't look ridiculous. It's like shopping for pants, you have to go 2" longer with everything, so for hair that's 4 months longer...

Tall lady here! I'm 6' tall so I know how you feel Bublin!

I am very evenly proportioned thank you very much! Lol

Well, have u measured? In my previous post i stated i have 6 inches between SL and APL and 5 inches between APL and BSL....seems to be above average so far. I am measuring from the top of my shoulder where hair would sit on it to the crease\start of my armpit.

 

[Miss_C]

Exactly. You tall girls can't have long legs and fast growing long hair too, that's just not fair for the rest of us!

PS, I'm 5'6, and APL isn't coming any faster for us middles either.

 

[Prettyeyes]

............

 

[Bulletproof]

What about shorties who have the same distance to cover so it seems to me it really is a proportions game. As seen upthread quiet a few shorties matched numbers thrown out. I know for myself it is a full 6 inches from Shoulder to APL and I am 5 feet on a good day.

 

[Bublin]

@ Bulletproof. Point taken.
