Yeah. I believe, on average, for most people hair left to grow will grow by about half an inch a month. So I've been trying to keep to that as much as I can.
It's probably just harder to tell because I also had Maria grow her hair out earlier in the story, and hers grew absurdly fast. The comparison is a little lopsided. Technically, someone probably could grow their hair that long that fast, but I'm going with a slower - probably more relatable - pace with Rain's hair.
I've definitely been cursed with slow growing hair. I removed 2 inches from my hair back in July and it's only grown an inch. Like, it will grow at a decent rate until it hits about 3 inches and then it will take forever. It took 2.5 years to go from shaved head to shoulder length. And I have straight hair so it's not like curls are hiding growth.
So, yeah, happy that someone also has slow growing hair. I think it's cool to have a more realistic showing of one person with super hair and another with slow hair.
I know it's hardly tonally appropriate, but can I just point out how fucking cute Rain's bedhead is in panel three? This length/style really suits her so well. Props to Emily for the help. (Though the initial cut was half a year ago at this point, she's still been providing at *least* moral support, if not continued styling assistance offscreen.)

You can see it was even shorter then!

Uh oh, hope that's not tempting fate.
Still always nice to see how supportive these girlfriends are to each other.
