Yay, I'm growing my hair out too! Right now it's just to my shoulders, which is about as long as it's ever been, but I want it to be longer so I can put it all up in a ponytail. Right now I can get a hair tie around the back of it, but it looks weird because there's a lot in the front that's still not long enough. And, my hairdresser decided I would really like fringe bangs last time, and i HATED them. That was about a month ago and now they're long enough to push to the side but not quite long enough to put behind my ears.
So my goal for the fall is actual side bangs and hair past my shoulders!
