My hair was as long as the back of my thigh, then I too decided to cut it mid-back length. Now my hair has all these layers I hate. I agree to your statement.

I know exactly what you mean! I have gone throught the same thing. I am sorry that I went to shoulder length with those godawful layers. After I had it layered I was thinking of cutting it shorter than I had ever had it before. I came SO close to doing it. Two different times I stood outside a salon and was on the verge of walking in and asking to have it cut short. I stood outside and I was almost shaking and sweating and I thought I wanted to do it but something made me walk away. I went into a Claire's where a friend of a friend's daughter was working and we got to talking about long hair and getting it cut short. She asked if I was nuts or what. I guess I was temporarily insane. Luckily I waited and the urge went away. Am I glad I didn't go thru with getting a haircut! Something told me I would be sorry and why not try to go back to nice long all one length hair again as that has always been what I have liked best and I think I look best that way. I am happily and impatiently growing it longer again. I shudder to think how unhappy I would have been if I had cut it short! It would have added more than a year to the grow out process. I agree with your advice to wait and think long and hard about what you REALLY want. I keep telling myself that by 2001 my hair will be mostly all one length again and down to my bra strap. It takes such a long time to get your hair grown out and just seconds of stupidity to have it all whacked off.longhair4ever!Carolyn B
