I don't really want to post pics because of the risks that it can pose, but I want to so you can see my hair. It sounds daft, but I always think that people won't believe me if I say something on the Internet. How about if I see if I can find a piccy I can scan in (no digital camera yet) and then stick a yellow smiley face or something over my own face, to protect my identity. That sounded too dramatic, didn't it.
One other thing. How do you post pictures? Every time I try, I get a pretty bow with a kiss in it.
I haven't posted in a while, here is a pic of my hair that was taken a few months ago... my hair is a lot longer now.
wow, you have gorgeous hair! Mine is pretty much the same colour and thickness, so I hope mine looks like that someday soon. May I ask how you take care of your hair?
Thank you Jenna and Lyris... my hair is really thick - mixed with fine and medium coarse. Somewhat dry due to dyeing my hair so much. I have dyed my hair 3 times in a month. 2 times within a week if I really hated the color. NOT GOOD!
Thanks to Lyris and to this board, I learned to take better care of my hair. I now use and addicted to All Soft by Redken!!! I love this product, I use the shampoo and conditioner and sometimes I will use the heavy cream wich I also love. I try to use jojoba oil once a week. I leave it on my hair overnight. I also used to take Ultra Nourishair.
I Blowdry my hair every morning (not good, I know I know) - I sometimes use a hair straightener to make it smooth like Amanda's. Otherwise, my hair looks just like in the pic... kinda tangled.
Lyris, you look so cute on your pic! Amanda, your hair has grown so much since I last your pic. Princess Monica, nice pics! Gren, your hair is so long... is it hard to manage? Jenna, you are very pretty! Just be patient and before you know it, your hair will be just as long as everyone's in this board.
Has anyone ever tried using the conditioner that comes with the hair color? I save them and use them from time to time, it makes my hair really soft! Some of them smells realy nice also. I wonder why they never package those to sell. They work better than regular conditioners I think.
edited so much because I was having techinical difficulties. The image part didn't want to work, neither did the HTML..oh well. Sorry for the cut and paste

laine-you and your hair are lovely i like the bangs.
jenna- hang in there you hair is pretty anyway so try to be patient. it will grow long
to all i'm very happy my hair has grown a lot since my christmas picture! i was very nervous last week. i had a trim. i thought she might have to take off more since our weather has been dry. she only took off not even a half a inch.
thanks crazygirl! I'll have to try some of those tips. I already use (and love!) the allsoft heavy cream. What is ultra nourishair, a hair growth supplement? Did it work well for you?

Gren, your hair is so long... is it hard to manage?
Nope. Not at all. I wash once a week, I deep condition with Loreal Mega Moisture once every couple of weeks, I don't brush my hair at all. I use a Mason Pearson wide tooth comb to detangle (cuz I sleep with my hair down), and then an MP dressing comb with finer teeth to smooth and remove lint. I clarify with baking soda in my shampoo once a month or so. I sometimes use shine spray, if I'm going to wear my hair down. I'm not a fanatic - it's just hair. Probably an unpopular viewpoint, but alas, my own. Patience is the key to having long hair. Diet plays a huge part -EAT good natural food. I take MSM, Biotin and Horsetail as well as a multi. I take extra C during the fall and winter - as preventative.
I have had very short hair and now, very long. I'll never go back to short hair.
