Letting your hair grow?

Are you letting your hair grow for your wedding (or did you if you are already married)?  Are you planning on cutting it after the wedding?  If so, PIP how you want to cut your hair.  (Just thought this would be fun).

    i'm not really letting it grow, but i'm wearing it at my longer length and will probally within 6 months cut it... but i do that all the time!

    I typically keep my hair long anyways, so I probably will keep it that way for the wedding.

    I actually have done the opposite. Just a couple of weeks ago I cut 10 inches off of my hair. The picture below is the old length and now it is right at the top of my shoulders. I like this length (so much lighter!!) and think I will keep it for the wedding.

    I'm letting my hair grow and plan on cutting it afterwards... but I still have a year to go.  My sister is a hairstylist and has been trimming it for me to add layers every few months, but I used to keep my hair shoulder length and a little shorter.  Can't wait for those days again.

    I'm only letting it grow because I haven't decided on my hairstyle yet.  I can always cut it off right before the wedding if I decide long isn't for me... but I can't really add it back unless I get extensions.  It's easier this way :)

    Well I used to keep my hair pretty short.




    But I'm letting it grow for the wedding.




    I kinda like it longer, so I'll probably keep it long for awhile.

    I'm letting it grow, but it's making me crazy! I usually keep it a few inches below my shoulder, and now it's getting to mid-back.. and it's just too long for me. I have my hair trial next week, so I'll find out how long I need it to be for the style I want, and cut accordingly!

    Im growing my hair out and then cutting it. I've done it about 3 times and donate it to Locks of Love. If any of you girls cut it and can donate it.. it's an amazing cause!!

    I'm growing mine out but it is a little too long for me.  I'm use to my cute short bobs but now that its long FI doesn't want me to cut it anymore.  I told him last night that I was going to cut it after the wedding to sholder length and by the look on his face you would have thought I told him I cheated on him.  He was furious.  Shoulder length is still long for me.  I just get sick of ponytails everyday and my hair doesn't hold curl at all and is so thick long styles just don't work for me.  Oh well, I'm still cutting it shoulder length and he'll just have to deal!  Love him but it's my hair!

    This is how I plan to do my hair for the wedding...something that I can turn into an updo later on...


    My hair is long.  I plan to keep it that way.  I am going to be a little more diligent in trimming every 6-8 weeks, instead of every 4 months, so that it will be super healthy for the wedding...

    I was blinking in that picture, by the way...it was the only one I could find that half way showed the length of my hair...it's still not a full on.
    We were at Reno's Chop Shop watching a friend's band play....so I dressed accordingly!

    I let mine grow..it is now longer than it has ever been.   My plan was to cut it after the wedding, but I actually really like it.  It is super easy to flat iron now (little pieces I used to have to fight with don't matter anymore), and it looks cute even if I just throw it back in a low pony tail. 

    Sorry no PIP, I don't have any photos at work.

    I have kept my hair around chin length for several years, but I started letting it grow in December so I could wear it up. It grows fast, so it's already almost to shoulder length. But, I really miss my short hair and I'm considering having it short for the wedding. It's more "me", plus I plan on wearing a birdcage veil and I think that would be cute. I'm very conflicted about it, and I was thinking about doing a poll on here actually!

    I always keep my hair pretty long so I kept it that way for the wedding.  If you don't want the hassale of growing your hair out there are extensions you can have put in then you can do an updo or curls.  One of my friends did for her wedding and you couldn't tell

    extensions are a good idea...if you're indecisive.  i've thought about trying them to add body and fullness to my hair...my hair color is just a little difficult to match...

    I am letting my hair grow....but since the wedding is next week I plan on cutting it as soon as we get back from our HM. I can't hardly stand it anymore!!! Here is a pic of the cuts I'm thinking about:

    I used extensions for my wedding--but I wore them all the time anyway so it wasn't like I looked totally different.

    I cut my hair after the wedding and hated it.  So I'm letting it grow back out and it's almost long enough where I can start wearing my extensions again.  Here it is now:

    Mine is normally long but I did want it long for the wedding so for a couple of years I only got minimal trims.  Never in my mind did I think I would do a PWC but 6 months later it is crossing my mind a lot.  I just don't know what I want to do.  Right now, it's past my bra curly.  I definitely want to straighten it before it's chopped off though.

    I did, and I plan to chop it as soon as I get home from the honeymoon. It got really tangled, and I actually had the stylist take off 2 inches at my trial.

    Trim often--it helps

    I usually keep my hair on the shorter side (sorry so blurry...took it from FB)



    but I have been trying to grow it out a little for the wedding so I can do an updo I like without pieces sticking out...this is about how long it is now




    Hard to see against the black but it has grown a few inches...these were taken about one year apart (and i just try to keep up with regualr trimmings)
