Sometimes, when I'm wearing a prim, long dress and trying to go for a Mary Pickford, nineteen teens' look, I get worried that I look more like a member of a religious cult.

Old hair habits die hard. I love the part about the boyfriend.

I agree with your "lifestyle choice" verdict...it's hard to keep up with so much hair (as I argue with myself, butwhataboutwantingtobestevienicks?).Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16842611749073935723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978925481748522797.post-22698933423229496202012-11-18T08:48:35.343-06:002012-11-18T08:48:35.343-06:00That's what I do with mine, too.

It's too heavy to take a curl well like it would if I had any layers (or the sense to get any layers), but is plenty long to look pretty braided and pinned. Still, when I think of the trouble it takes us to keep our long hair neat, just think about the woman in the photographs!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16842611749073935723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978925481748522797.post-91015038800947568612012-11-18T08:47:09.727-06:002012-11-18T08:47:09.727-06:00Mine was always in this dutch bob until early high...Mine was always in this dutch bob until early high school...then I let it grow out until it was the length it is now, about halfway down my back.

My hair is fine and because of the time involved in washing and blow-drying it daily, several inches past my shoulders is all the length I can manage.<br /><br />The thing with super-long hair is that if you accidently pair it with a long skirt and clunky shoes? People are going to think you belong to that church that Duggar family goes to. Also, the line between a cute/sassy bun and a grandma bun is pretty easy to cross. I'm not sure I always get that one right, myself...Lauren Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07627148276337482413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978925481748522797.post-58763561272905171482012-11-16T20:55:32.202-06:002012-11-16T20:55:32.202-06:00I've had hair that long, and that frizzley, to...I've had hair that long, and that frizzley, too. I always wore it up in a bun. Once the social worker at the hospital asked me to help out with an older patient that had long hair. She wore it in what we called a "monument." This is a giant, teased ball of hair, firmly fixed with hairspray. She had been there a few, so the hairball was a little flat. I had a bottle of Redken Glass in my bag, and I went to work. It took about an hour or so. I was very careful, and the result was gorgeous silver hair about as long as in the picture. I braided her hair in the old style crown of braids. Man, she looked great. Her boyfriend came to visit her, and he stopped cold in the doorway. "Oh, Bernice! he said. You look beautiful!" She posed and preened like a Queen.<br />Next day when I came back to work,the hairdresser had been to visit, and the Monument was back.Mrs.Leaphearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07903237273139458385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978925481748522797.post-37893910204024127012012-11-16T16:32:36.995-06:002012-11-16T16:32:36.995-06:00I had hair down to my butt until a year ago when I...I had hair down to my butt until a year ago when I donated it. It was terrible. I have never been great at maintaining things and I felt like it always looked ratty. Long hair is definitely a lifestyle choice.

I'm currently letting my hair grow just to see how long it can get (i.e. I've been too lazy to get it cut...) but at the moment is a little shorter than tailbone length. I can't actually sit on it... yet. I wear it pinned up or braided most days.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09870435785776540136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978925481748522797.post-5806516577698217812012-11-16T09:42:00.407-06:002012-11-16T09:42:00.407-06:00wow! what a great pair of pictures. i had hair pas...wow! what a great pair of pictures. i had hair past my butt until i was about `4 and i HATED IT. it took almost two hours just to blow dry! my mom wouldn't let me cut it.
