Hey. Well, I'm like 5'6 to 5'7, and I'm 14/f African American (if that helps) and about to enter the 9th grade as a freshman in August. Anyways, I was just wondering if you guys thought that I was tall for my age, average height, etc. Also, can you guys tell me if long legs look good in mini skirts. Thanks.
P.S.-I have like a couple scabs on my legs and I'm brown skin and the scabs are like a dark brownish color, so I was wondering if that would look good in a mini skirt as well, and also whatI can do to clear it up quickly. Thanks again, and sorry for all the questions.
KELLY_ELIZABETH answered Monday May 15 2006, 6:37 pm: well, i wouldnt consider you really THAT tall. i would prolly consider you on the high end of normal/average. im also entering 9th grade this fall, and im 5'5. you are in the 75%ish percentile for your height. if you wanna checkk.. then go here [ [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) ]. i dont think that super tall girls look good in mini skirts, it looks like they're legs are like TOO long. and its unproportional. but sicne your not super tall, i think it would be fine. and as for the scabs - they dont last that long, unless you keep picking at them and/or fall alot. so, i wouldnt worry about that.. everyone gets those.

DancinCutie08 answered Monday May 15 2006, 6:10 pm: i would say your a little tall.. not wow tall but i would say for your age yes but you'll belend in just fine in highschool. I've known girls who are 6 foot their freshman year so yuo are certainly not a giant. and i think most tall girls dont look good in mini skirts.. they look better in ones that are just a tad longer [ DancinCutie08's advice column | Ask DancinCutie08 A Question ]

Most of my female friends are around 5"2 - 5"4 and they're pretty average.
So yes, you're quite tall for your age.
Mini skirts look great on long legs, although make sure you're not wearing a really, really mini skirt. A skirt around upper - mid thigh length would look great but make sure you're not wearing it with heels or a low cut top unless you're going to a party or something.
Moisturising your legs with lotion about three times a day will clear up your scabs and make your legs smoother although they probably won't look too bad in a mini skirt as they won't show up much. [ rainbowcherrie's advice column | Ask rainbowcherrie A Question ]
