When did you start your HHJ and what was your starting length?

Why did you start your hair journey?
Because you (tHs) were going on and on about hair so I figured why not! Let’s see how this goes. Plus I wanted my hair to grow, it had been the same length for years.

It’s grown to Shoulder Length (SL) since starting my HHJ!
