1-Year Length Comparison & Check

Ladies & Gents it's that time of the year AGAIN! Yes, it's time for my bi-annual length check. I kind of cheated last time and did a quarterly check in. This is the first time that I can display a full year's worth of growth. No need to talk about my progress - just check the pics! PS - Let me apologize for the lack of photo quality displayed on my earlier pics taken with...ahem...the camera on my phone.




Honestly, I haven't seen a lot of change in the front section from the quarterly check-in. However, overall, I definitely feel like I've gained 4 inches in the back and a solid 6 inches in the front from 2010 to 2011. When I got my hair straightened in July, the stylist cut at least 2 inches in the back, so I think that's why my hair appears to not have grown as much in the back. Overall, I'm very satisfied. I'm looking forward to my next check in, I'm going to definitely wear the same thing, use my nice camera, and take shots from these three angles moving forward.

One more thing. Did you notice that the pictures are all together in one nice photo this time? Well, if you didn't that's ok. I am super excited to announce that I GOT ADOBE PHOTOSHOP!!! That's how I put the pictures together. I have been using iPhoto and Seashore to edit my photos, but iPhoto is limited, and Seashore, although free, is not user-friendly. I'm looking forward to creating things with the new software!

This post is already lengthy, so look for a hair goals post in the near future. Check here for my last length check posts.
