Hmmm. That`s an angle I hadn`t considered. I`ll certainly think about it. Thanks. He`s not my diamond - he`s married with a couple of kids - but I guess he could just be going through a strange phase/be lonely/need reassurance that he still has what it takes, etc.
OK. I won`t "show claws" as long as he doesn`t touch me again. If he does, no more nice girl.
Best regards
Uzma
PS: What happened to chivalry? Why are guys on the take all the time? I would MAKE time for any man who treated me with honour and respect.
Uzma, sounds like the geek at work is interested in you. I know, I went through an awkward stage in my life. You say some dumb things. Now I have past that due to growing up and learning we are all just people. Actually I went too far and and became ****y but that has passed too. Be nice to the guy. HE probably is just not sure how to approach you. Never know he could be your diamond in the rough that just needs a little polishing. Sounds like your stone is beginning to shine. Give him a chance too. Just a thought.

Oops. Forgot to tell you about how my hair is looking these days. I think it`s a bit weird. It`s almost shoulder-length, which is very far off being long and flowing. The underlayer of my hair is wavy and the top layer is curly and getting curlier as ot grows. It frizzes on wet days, even if the rain doesn`t fall on it directly. When I had short hair I thought it was straight - but I guess because I always had layers, I couldn`t really tell. My hair is very dry and coarse and the individual strands are thick - so I have to mega-condition it.
Getting excellent results with Kerastase bain satin 3 shampoo, Phytokarite conditioner, PhytoDefrissant relaxer and Phyto 9 leave-in conditioner. Also taking HF-37. Hair has softened up and is straighter when I use the PhytoDefrissant (thank God for that product).
Because I am growing out layers and my hair is it`s natural colour (salt & pepper), when I leave it loose it swishes about and has a wild appearance which I enjoy (it goes with the attitue lol). I like the uniqueness of my hair.
Everyone adds their own colour to the tapestry of life. I absolutely abhor the inflences that want us all to be the same, think the same and deny our innermost and outermost selves their true and full expression.
Love

My mother is not "off my case" ....she has changed tactics (and I`m quite enjoying it).
SHE IS BUYING STUFF FOR MY HAIR!!!!
She bought me an absolutely gorgeous diamante clip last week and yesterday when I visited her she bought me a really expensive and very beautiful antique slide for when it`s longer.
My initial reaction was "o my God, I`ve become her personal `dress-up doll`" but it`s actually quite OK because I think this is her way of showing concern for her now mentally ill daughter (lol).
We went to a charity ball the other day and I wore a beaded see-thru black lace jacket with a skimpy, clingly top underneath (very fem) and heels,etc. My hair was pinned back and I wore the diamante clip she had bought me. I had a LOT of compliments, most within my mother`s hearing as to the positive transformation in my appearance (incl.hair) and I could see her beaming with pride.
She`s still fairly shocked but at least the hostility is over.
Mom`s no longer the problem. What is more worrying is that I am being harassed by a guy at work...anyway that`s another story.
What`s happened in your life, Inga? The event I last recall was your brother making a positive comment on your new short hairstyle, at a family dinner. Has your mother softened up at all? Have you spoken to her about your feelings? I would be interested to know her ongoing responses.
Take care and bye for now.
Love

Hey, Uzma! Kudos to ya- you`re very bold for deciding to do that. ITs a shame that we live in these `modern` cultures where that kind of free expression is looked down upon. I agree with Gary (above)- since you`ve gone thru so much personal trouble to grow your hair out,, and if its what you really want to do, then go for it! Hope your hair grows long & beautiful, and don`t let anyone`s criticism ruin the happiness you get from it. Its none of their business, anyway! Love, Ingrid :) :)

Hi Uzma, how ya been? I say go for it hun. You deserve it after all you have been having to go thru. Never let the blade of a pair of scissors touch your hair again. Just my oppion though. Gary

Recently I have been exploring the idea of leaving my hair un-cut for the rest of my life.
I sought and found inspiration in many cultures, religions, etc. However, as a modern woman living in the big city and working for a global corporation, the choice of un-cut hair is controversial.
I am committed to NEVER letting a sissor near my hair again. I never use heat on it, always protect it from the elements and cherish it.
Is there anyone out there who has also made this choice? What are your reasons? How long have you been letting your hair grow? What responses have you had from others? Do you ever forsee cutting it...why?
