Your hair is lovely! Very very very pretty and shiny...you've obviously been taking good care of it and of your kitty too (which looks just like my beloved Charlotte that died three years ago this October and is buried in the backyard underneath the apple tree that's marked with a ceramic cat....no, I wasn't obsessed or anything ;-)

Great hair!!!!!

Hey Amanda! Thanks!

Your hair looks good, too! I like the new photo.
You know, our hair looks about the same length, but the measurements in your sig say 27.25. I must not be measuring right. I just measured the length of a strand, with help. I think I'll do like you and measure from the hairline on my forehead to the ends in back. That's how you did it, right?

Then I'll come up with a bigger number, which will boost my confidence.

Oh, and I'm sure you can do a French Twist! Just keep practicing! It took me a looooong time to get it right. The one in the photo was just a happy accident, really. :) I'm not sure what I did, exactly. I hope I can do it again! That was Friday, and I haven't tried since.

Wow! I wish I had that energy, Uzi. I enjoy sleep too much.

Cyn, I've been trying for like 2 years to take really good care of my hair and really safe guard against damage. I rarely brush it and just use a wide tooth wooden comb only when it's dry. Some days, all I do is finger comb it.

Also, I only use gentle shampoos and conditioners. I learned about those here and in Paula Begoun's hair book. And from Lyris' ingredient list! :)

I started taking vitamins a couple months ago, but I don't think those could have much effect yet.

Thanks for asking! If there were a blushing smiley icon, I would put it here.

Hi Sweety

I get up at the crack of dawn - this body just won't stay in bed.
Life - so much to do, so few hours of daylight. Must make the most of it!!
Waiting for the June sales to buy that digital camera so that I can post some shots.

Enhanced or not, I love your hair colour.

Have a good week-end.

Thanks Uzi!! You're such a sweetheart.
I can't wait to see your hair!
I can't believe you're still up! It must be 5AM in London! Are you just getting up? Or are you a serious night owl like me?

To answer your questions: It's wavy because I'd just taken it out of the clip. I wish it would stay that way! But no. Flat again within minutes.

Usually the tangles I chop off are on the underside.

The color is enhanced. I'm naturally dishwater-blonde. I lighten it with Beach Blonde Sun Streaks... which unfortunately contains peroxide, but what can you do? It doesn't seem to do too much damage. It's a compromise.

Ooooooo G E O R G E O U S Traci!!!

Your French Twist is so elegant and I just love the colour of your hair. You deserve to be proud!!!!

It looks in good condition too, so all that chopping off of tangles can’t have been as major as I imagined!!!

Your hair appears to be quite soft textured– very pretty. I like the way your ends look, too, and the slight wave – was that caused by the updo?

Gunther’s a cute cat. Obviously knows it too, from the look he’s giving the camera.
Great pictures .

Love to you both!!

I'm so excited I can show you all my hair now! This makes my day! (It was a long hard day at work. I didn't leave until 10:30!!)

ANYWAY, I had my hair up in a Ficcare all day, and we were just talking about Ficcares in another thread, so I thought I'd take a pic to show you what it looked like. I'm starting to get a handle on doing a French Twist! *beaming with pride*

I also took a pic with my hair down. And I'm holding the best cat on the planet! His name is Gunther. You can't have him! All mine. He is such a sweetheart.
Anyhow, I didn't comb my hair at all before the picture (or at all today for that matter!) so it isn't the best showing of my $80 haircut from 10 weeks ago. But it still looks good for not being washed in 48 hours.

I'll stop blabbering. Here's the photos!:

Have a great weekend everybody!! More rain in the Northeast. Booooooo!
