A disturbing trend I saw at one high school

At one high school that I recently visited (I cover H.S.football games for a newspaper on Friday nights),it was homecoming night. All of the girls were wearingtheir hair up, and all in the same style, moderately curly.EVERY SINGLE ONE of them, no matter the length (except theone or two pixie cuts).I asked one, a cheerleader, if everyone was wearing it upand she said pretty much the whole school was doing it.I didn't have time to ask why, but I did (nicely) expressmy disappointment that none of the girls would show offtheir hair.Dang, most women look best with their hair down, or with thesides pinned up and the rest flowing. And part of the funof these social events was the variety of hairstyles andoutfits.I never went to a homecoming, but at the prom (in 1991)a good number of the girls at my high school let it down.My date had awesome ringlets.I hope some of you ladies will let your hair down.If you've got it, flaunt it!---C.C.

Most guys told me that my hair looks sexy for a nice event with it up anyways.

> I hope some of you ladies will let your hair down.> If you've got it, flaunt it!well I must agree with you that women should choose how they wish to style their hair. it is important to be yourself after all. I remember when I first choped off all my long blond hair, I thought everyone at school was going to die. then when I dyed it a nice dark brown.. *laughs* well, they ignored me. figured I didn't know waht I was doing. 'ruining' my long curly blond hair by choping it and dying it nice a dark.but the comment I left upthere ^^^^^^^^^ is what I'm going to complain about. now sir, I don't mean to sound rude, but your young. I can tell your a bit younger then myself.women are not here to look good for you men.sorry to break the news to you pumpkin, but I've learned that if I look good, its because I do it formyself, because I enjoy taking the time to slap some mascara on my lashes.I haven't taken my time to do it for someone else in ages. My husband doesn't mind. if a guy likes you, it should be about WHO you are, never about how you look.well I'm rambling.Grey
