Several years ago, I had short hair. Because my hair is naturally wavy, it takes time for it to grow, and I wasn't ready to try having it straightened at the moment. Looking back at my photos of myself with shoulder-length hair, I must say that I miss it. I recall it taking 3 to 4 months to grow 5 to 6 inches, that's how long it takes.
Anyway, I'm satisfied with my hair length now, but looking over old images always brings back fond memories.
