I agree. I've had "boy length", then maintained just below the shoulder for a while and now rear-length. Anything shorter than what I have now was much more work to keep styled -- blow-drying, curling, making sure it wasn't parted funny. My hair is healthier now that I don't blow-dry or curl as often. I think anyone who loves "playing" with their hair would love the benefits of very long hair.

>> I been on both side of the coin. I had very short hair and loved it at the time because all I needed to do was jump in the shower and run out.When I had shoulder length it was tons of work. I found myself styling it and using a hair blower etc. I found that I was at the stylist so often and I was always trying a new style because I was sick and tired of the old style. I found I spend hours and hours fixing my hair.Now I have waist lenght and it is so so easy.

Hey all. From time to time, I've heard people mention that long hair is a lot of trouble, or difficult to take care of, and I wondered what everyone thought. Some people argue that long hair is a lot of work, keeping it detangled, the amount of shampoo we use, etc. Others think the frequency short hair needs trimming, or the time people spend styling it is more of an inconvenience.I can see both sides. If I had short hair, I probably wouldn't need to braid or put it up before bed, but on the other hand, my long hair doesn't get funny waves or cowlicks in the morning like it did when it was shorter. I do have to braid my hair for the gym or on windy days, but I enjoy this more than fiddling with curling irons or constantly having to get trims. Plus I think long hair has more "bad hair day" options (i.e. buns, updos), but that could be a misconception due to the fact I haven't had short hair in awhile.What do you think?Kim
