Not quite one year ago (8 more days) I let C and lord_kjar talk me into trimming my hair--they cut it level with the bottom of my bra strap, which was the shortest it has been since I was 18. At 18 I was delighted that it had finally gotten that long, but a year ago I was sad to have lost so much length--it used to be mostly waist length, with a some of the

Knee length hair is profoundly irritating! Not only do you have to be very careful crawling anywhere with it, but people sit on it on the bus and then look at you weirdly when you point it out. Let us not speak of the awkwardnesses of having to keep track of it in the lavatory!

Waist is a good option: long but self-contained :-)

I found that my hair started growing long again when I went on a new food regime - apparently I'd been missing some nutrients (or hormones, it being the time of life-change for me) that were needed for healthy hair growth. I don't think that is what is going on with you since you so carefully maintain your diet but I thought I might mention that 'just in case'. Your body could be reacting to the difference in sunlight or something.

It could be food--back when I used to eat meat my hair was longer. This year we have some moose in the freezer from his dad which I eat occasionally, since it doesn't have the same unpleasant effect on my digestion as store-bought meat does. If I am lucky that will bring it back. If it does you can be certain I will mention it here...
