TL;DR: show off pictures of your long hair here. Or your short hair! Or just generally discuss! Wooo hair!
Long version/backstory:
So I've always had a thing for long, curly hair. It always reminded me of princess/fairytale hair and I envied the rare girl I saw with my dream hair. My hair was always wavy (but leaning more towards straight than curly) and I argued constantly with my mom, a professional hairdresser, over cutting it because "it just looks unkempt" when it starts getting "too long."
Well, I've had "long" (by most people's standards) hair my entire adult life, but I eventually decided I wanted it long enough to curl and still have it look long (since curling hair shortens it by quite a bit). I stopped my usual trims and started being extra careful with it.
One year later, MY MOTHER ATE HER WORDS THIS MORNING, AWWW YEAH. "Oh my goodness, it's beautiful!" she says. Yesssss. (She doesn't live nearby and hasn't seen a picture in ages, esp. not post-rods lol).
I'm so pleased. I finally have it right where I want it.
Anyone else have long hair? What's your routine/what works for you? Or just generally show off and talk about your hair!
