IDEAL LOCS LENGTH?

QUICK QUESTION.lol... How long would you let your lovely locs grow? For me, past my shoulders. armpit length at the very max and that would be stretching it for me. It sounds fun to say I have super long hair. But for me the longer my hair was the thicker it got and on top of that it took longer to do my hair. That's why I got locs. But that is just for me. I am not really obsessed with long hair don't care anymore. Just locs that are healthy and blow in the wind. lol.
