I am at 44 inches length, which is exactly where I was 2 years ago. It seems so strange to me that what feels like a huge cut to me no one else notices. I basically cut off 2 years of growth which is a lot to me. There is no doubt my hair is still very long, but now I am re-thinking cutting more. I only layered the bottom 2 inches, so I may end up cutting that back to one length, but not for now. I really don't like my side layers. It looks good when my hair is down, but I hardly ever wear it down and it is a pain for updos and it seems to make my hair more prone to split ends. I am thinking of cutting the fringe in the front from chin length to cheekbone so I have a little bit of bangs to break up the "severe" look of buns and let the rest grow back out. We'll see.
