Posted By: mishymishy Subject: To fringe or not to fringe? Date Posted: May 31, 2009 at 12:12am
I have had a fringe for the past 5 years and it's been my 'mask' that hides my horrible forehead.
Some say I look better with a fringe and others say I look way better without a fringe.
I am totally undecided, so can you guys please help me in making up my mind as to whether I should grow out my beloved fringe?
Pictures of my hair with and without a fringe are attached for your review. Many thanks guys.... xxx
------------- Love Mish

Hi Mishymishy. Your hair is absolutely stunning and honestly you would look great no matter which way you went with it. Id say to go for it and grow out the fringe for once. If you dont like it you can always cut it back again. Are you growing your hair alot longer? Its sooo nice. :)

Hello Pburgh56, Thanks so much for your lovely post :) Yes, I think I will grow out my fringe now. Everyone needs a change don't they? I think my hair is at 24"now, and I want to grow another 5". It's hard to get past the BSL and have been really tempted to give my hair the full chop!! What length is your hair at currently? Send a pic if you like :)

YOu are more than welcome. Def hit me up with a private message sometime too to talk hair :) Congrats on growing out the fringe, I really think you will like it :) Your hair is gorgeous now but it will be even prettier when its even longer. Def dont chop it yet, keep it growing! Stay strong! My hair is currently only like 4 inches long just shaggy and i have just decided to grow it long not to long ago. My goal for now is mid back length then I want to donate it to cancer patients up to my shoulders then try to grow it really long again :) Ill def get a pic soon to send your way !

Again I have to go with the rest here. Both look great. I also agree with Pburgh let it grow. As I see you do have plans to add more lenght. As it was said you can always cut if you do like it. !% Ah ``d ba ,%$ bp $($ b ).,%$)-!,) ! % 0b` %$

If my hair had fast growth, i'd be the happiest girl alive. Sadly, this isn't the case my friend. But I will get there. I've decided that I'm going to do my own hair trimmings from now on :)

Thats a great idea to do your own trimmings. That way you are absolutely sure that u dont get more taken off then u want. Dont worry your hair will get there just like mine will :) Is 5 more inches all the more u want it, or would u think about going even longer?

I will be happy with 5 inches. I am quite short, so if I grew my hair any longer it would just look funny. hahahah

Hahahah I see. Its all what you like. Five inches will look great. My hair is taking forever to grow out :( Like I said I want middle of my back so it will be really long so itll take a while :(

well we should post our hair growths in a couple of months time to see if there's any progress... I've never been this 'obessive' about my hair until I joined this forum!!
Apparently hair grows 1/2 inch per month.. this way we can also measure our hair growth speed.
p.s it's been the 4th day of not using the hair straightner, and I gotta tell ya, I'm getting bit tired of the cave man hair style. au naturale pffft!! !$% Aich

Awwwww thats a great idea. lets go for it!! We can measure our hair every couple months and see how much growth we have and how fast it grows. IM looking forward to it hair buddy! I was never this obsessed with mine either until the forum. Its great learning about amazing long hair tho. I bet its hard not using the straightner. Id think ud be fine if u only used it a few days a week. I love straightening mine now too lol :) How long is your ponytail when you pull it up. Ive been meaning to ask you.?

Okay sounds good. Today's date is Friday 5th June, so how about we set a date for 5th August to post our results?
I'm not sure how long my hair is in a ponytail. I tried uploading a pic of my hair so you can see the length of it, but my work pc isn't allowing me to do so. I will try again at home. I just bought a set of hot hair rollers :)

Def try to upload a picture tho. I would love to see it and see the length of your hair :) Congrats on the rollers too. I want to do soooo much with my hair once its long. YOu know high and low ponytail, buns, braids, half up andhalf down, curled, straightened, headbands ;) What do you think? ANy other ideas for me? Have a great day and i look forward to seeing your pic :)

Hello and apologies for not replying sooner..
Purgh, I'm excited to have a hair buddy as well! I was trimming my own
hair for the past 3 weeks and in those 3 weeks I probably trimmed about
4 times. I have come to realise that I am a poor hairdresser who can
not cut straight. So I had to go to the salon to get my ends
straightened out. hahahaha but no length was taken off.
As I promised, here are some pics of my hair. These are from my mobile phone so they're not as clear.

Mish wow what great hair you have. Heck going to waist wouldn't look bad at all. Nice and thick. Looks great. !% Ah ``d ba ,%$ bp $($ b ).,%$)-!,) ! % 0b` %$

I agree with Mike it wouldnt take that much to get it to waist length and it would look amazing and thick :) 5 inches may even get you close to that I dont know !! Keep it up hair buddy :)

Actually it would be ideal if you sent it via email to: miss_chen86@hotmail.com Hope to see your shots soon! I haven't measured my hair for ages, but it still looks the same in terms of length. Health wise, it's probably improved heaps so I'm pleased about that.
