getting bored...

Not too sure what to do with the long mop anymore. It's too long now to wear down to the bar... it gets in drinks and caught on peoples watches/purses/etc. And I'm not practiced enough in the skill of updos to get a hairstyle I feel is secure enough to wear out dancing without it falling out.

Sometimes I french braid in twos and then wear braid waves for a day, but I have chin length layers at the front that need to be clipped back when I do that or they look scraggly.

I highly doubt I'm ever going to do anything drastic with my hair, but it seems lately all it does is get in the way or frustrate me to the point where I just braid it or put it in my trademark bun/ponytail style.

Kay... I think I'm done whining now. I can't really talk about it too much with my friends because as much as they love my hair, they'll just tell me to cut it in the end.

     OK, humble suggestion here, and it's not for everyone. I think that blonding streaks at the front on both sides might be fun for you. They always look great, IMO.      Trying buns for a while might help also. Even if you don't like them on yourself, try them with a different parting. My wife's hair, when pulled back, is unflattering, (very much unlike the results for most women, IMO), but with a center part, she and her hair look sensational. Good luck, Bob

I know what you mean Im getting tired of my hair too. I think streaking your hair or putting it up would be a nice change. Dont cut it your hair looks beautiful.

Does anybody know if temp dyes ever actually do totally wash all the way out? I have no desire to ever permanently dye my hair as I could never afford to have it done, and if I did, I could never been able to deal with the upkeep.

I temp dyed my hair purple and red when it was shorter in high school, but I can't remember if my hair ever actually went back to its natural colour. I'd love to do red streaks or something, but I can't do them at home with a cap (too long) and like I already said... I don't want anything permanent.

I think any super long hair resolve I once had kind of faded. :( Saturday morning I woke up, called a salon, had three inches cut off, long layers added, and cut in some sideswept bangs. Feels much better now.

No one can tell the difference except for the bangs anyway, haha.

I've been through the boredom stage, too and have come VERY close to going short.  Here's what I do....
