I've been growing out my short, thick bangs since November 2006. It's been quite a ride! They were at least two inches deep at the centre, so that was a lot of hair to grow out. My bangs are now about three inches below my chin. I guess that makes me a lieutenanant, and it won't be long before I'm a captain!
I literally had short bangs all my life, so this is a first for me.
