I just posted photos galore!

Aaaah! Now you will see my face for the first time!

See Below, about 5 posts.

OK... a quick narration. The first picture is the result of taking the braid in the second picture out. The braid was in for almost 24 hours. Hence the change in t-shirts.
My eyes are a little puffy in the first pic cuz I had just said goodbye to all my camp friends and I had been crying.
The second photo is the same one I referred to in the previous thread about my friend's awesome French braiding skills, but the link kept crashing.
Photo 3 is from last weekend when I was playing with my hair. Very possibly the first time I ever had my hair in braided pigtails. I certainly don't remember ever having my hair this way before.
Photo 4 I took to send in to some new TLC show that is some kind of reality show about lifeguarding. They were looking for lifeguards, and I until recently used to be one, so I thought I'd send them my info.
Photo 4 reflects how my hair looks 99% of the time. I don't usually do too much to it.

PS In Photo 1 / Unbraided... I probably should have cropped it before posting it. But I didn't because now you can see about a third of the hair products that dominate my shower and bathtub! See that 2 shelf unit? There is a 4 shelf unit in the corner of the tub you can't see! And it is stuffed to the gills, too! Then there are the 2 other corners of the tub you can't see, plus a little overflow on the radiator cover. That's OK to do in the summer when the radiator is cold!
I'm a hair product JUNKEE!

I guess we'll have to wait a little longer ;).

Aaaaah! *Banging head against wall*
OK, with help, I finally figured it out. Everything's a learning experience, huh?

Here, THIS had better work!

Aww, thanks Lyris! I'll have to post my 'before' pictures so you can see how bad it looked before I started following all the advice I learned here at HB.com

What is Y/C separation?

I could explain to you about image orthicon tubes and aspect ratio and PAL vs. NTSC...

Image orthicon....okay you lost me there, although I get the 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios and European/U.S. video formats. Y/C is the separation of a composite video signal's luminance (Y) from its color (c) components.

And they say we comm majors don't learn anything!!! :-P

SuperGrover,

I wish my hair was that length. Well, eventually...hopefully...

You have very pretty hair. I especially like the 1st picture - the one taken after you took out the braids - your waves were lovely.

Thanks for sharing your pics. If my hair ever gets long enough to where I want to show it on this board, I may have to ask you for help posting photos.

SuperGrover!

You and your hair are beautiful! I really love pic #4, and that single braid is great. Thank you for being willing to share your photos with us all.

You are very pretty and your do look very intelectual...which of course is a compliment. I like the shirt =) Sooo, how did you pick your online name =) Your hair looks very nice too, just the right thickness and everything to be very manageable. And such a pretty shade! Now, Im not trying to offend either but you look young too...how old did you say you are?

I think looking young is a good thing =)

You are the sweetest cherub I've seen this year .

Love your hair, your smile and your style.

Hugs and kisses,

Zzzzzzzz... Huh? Oh... Hi! Sorry I've been away for a couple days. Actually I've been away due to reasons directly related to picture #4. Details are in da journal: http://www.livejournal.com/~soopahgrover

Thanks everyone for the compliments! You are so sweet. I've never been called a cherub before. *blushes*

Erinlynn, I am 24. :) People say I look younger though. Which is odd. When I was 15, people thought I was 18. When I was 18, I was not carded at bars! @_@
Now when I hang out with my 17 year old friend, people think she's older!

Monica, I use jojoba on dry hair. :) That stuff really is liquid gold.
