To your shoulders if you had a short inverted bob which you fucking hated

I've been growing mine since August and my bob was pretty much an undercut at the back. It's almost all one length all the way round now. I'm growing it for a wedding I'm being bridesmaid for in April so I'm hoping it'll be nearer shoulder length then

Mine was butchered last May. All one length now and very nearly shoulder length. I'm just getting to the point where I don't hate it everytime I look in the mirror!

Did you have to get it trimmed every so often to get it one length? Mine seems to be a bit of an undercut at the back wtf was I thinking what length is yours at now?

Yes. Pained me to have more cut off, but has kept it looking ok. It is still slightly longer in the front. Shoulder length in front, collar length at the back...

About 18 months.

I lost my hair from chemo, and it's taken 3 years from shaven to get to shoulder length.

It's taken 9 months to get from an inverted Bob to shoulder length. I did get it trimmed every 6 weeks - but since being able to tie it back I've not had it trimmed for 4 months. It does really need cutting though, but I've got lazy as I've been putting it up until it grows. I think once you're able to tie it back it seems to grow quicker.

It's driven me mad tbh, one you can get it in a bit of a pony tail I started wearing a clip in pony tail on night outs for a different look

I've had regular trims every 6 weeks to keep it in a shape but she barely takes anything off.

I'd say mine is mid neck length - doesn't rest on my shoulders but hopefully not long till it does

Last March I had an asymmetric bob cut. The short side was cut short round my ear and was proper boy cut short.
By August I'd grown it into a short ear length bob.
I had it cut into a graduated jaw length bob in December and am still growing it, aiming for a on the top of the shoulders long graduated bob. Hope to be there by August.

Growing hair is so boring!
