QuoteReplyTopic: Took me a good year and a half Posted: November 03 2007 at 3:25pm
It took me about a year and half to get to this stage from shoulder length:
Unfortunately excessive hair dye, hair straighteners and an extremely powerful hairdryer has caused the ends to frazzle and split, so I'm going to get at least an inch cut off next time I visit the hairdresser. It feels disgusting, lank and dry. I feel really sad, it's nearly the longest I've ever had it.

Ally look at the bright side you are not going to get a major cut. Looks great by the pic you posted. Maybe just maybe there is something you can use like a hot oil treatment that might make the damage less.

Aww thanks. Towards the ends it really is quite brittle! It's the naturally softer more delicate hair which grows near the temples which is in really bad shape. I have to say though, I haven't used a hairdryer for about a week and the difference is amazing. I'm only ever going to use a hairdryer and straightening irons if it's really necessary from now on!
I do actually really trust my stylist and she never pushes me into getting a style I don't want like many others do, so I'm lucky in that sense!
Oh and my goodness DaveDecker, is that your hair in the pic you have at the bottom? What amazing hair!

Yes it is my own hair, Ally, thank you! The static is courtesy of a plastic children's playground slide. Good to hear you have a trustworthy stylist -- they are hard to find. Hang onto her.

A playground slide? Haha, that's brilliant!
I've had the chop:
She actually listened to what I want! Very very very good hairdresser.
