Yeah, just a little bit more than we needed, bless her heart! Though I certainly rejoice at her sense of freedom. Simplicity, isn't that what Ralph Waldo Emerson advocated? Or, was that Thoreau? Good gracious, I'm going to have to go back and do some reading. But, I think it was Emerson...

My hair is long, black and thick.

It has become a part of my life....

Well, MY stupid hair has begun to take on a life of its own! I have always had very straight, blondish hair (I am now 62 years old, as of yesterday) and I still keep it long...but over the past couple of years the hair on the back of my head has begun to grow wavy! So now I have straight, sleek hair on top and the sides and in the back it's the Bride of Frankenstein! If I cut it short it's going to look like I'm wearing a merkin on the back of my head (look it up if you don't know what a merkin is), but with it long I resemble Roseanne Rosannadanna from the rear (but not in front!) Has anyone else had this weird happening?

I go thru phases also. I had my hair halfway down my back and then decided to get a short bob cut (I regretted it only for the simple fact that it made my face loko fat, next time I want to do a short cut I'm NOT doing a bob! :P)

I'm growing out that hideous bob cut right now, I duno if I want my hair THAT long again (cuz it IS such a pain to take care of) But I definitely want it about shoulder lengthish

Have medium long (below the shoulders) mocha blonde hair - the real color is dark brown with shades of gray at the temples - we'll never see the real color again! In the summer I gel it and wear it curly - I've learned it's useless to fight Florida's humidity in the summer. In winter I blow dry it straight. I used to hate my curly hair, but with all the great products available today - I have the best of both worlds and I actually enjoy it.

I doubt I will ever have short hair. Tried that a few years ago because I got it in my head that short hair looked more polished and professional. It looked HORRIBLE on me and I had clerks asking if I qualified for the SENIOR discount!!!! That was 7 years ago. I grew my hair long again and no one has asked me that since.

I never wanted long hair. When it gets too long, it's time to cut it, and if that means me taking a razor or pair of scissors to my locks, so be it.

I can't stand having "long hair". (My definition may vary from yours.)

I have dark brown hair past my shoulders that I color for gray coverage. I had been pretty happy with it until recently, when I lost a whole bunch due to a health scare my mom had. Mom is fine,thankfully, but my scalp got the memo a little too late. A whole lot fell out.

My hair is fine in texture, and now that there is less of it, I must admit it looks a little straggly. I know I should cut it, but I can't right now. I feel longish hair is my best look, so I sympathize with all the posters who know its probably time for a real cut, but aren't able to do it. I feel like if I really cut it this time, that's probably it for the long hair.

Like lots of women, I keep it long for the bedroom when I know it would look better shorter for the light of day.

A little longer than this

Merkin. LOL!!!! I looked it up on Wikipedia and they have a picture. Now, my question is ... where can I buy a merkin???

I think, just like any other wig, you have to get fitted...
