And I only discovered the hair boards a few years ago. If I had only known 10 years ago what I know now about caring for my hair!

That's amazing - very impressive!!

You must be one of the longest and most dedicated growers on this forum - if not THE longest.

Has anyone else here grown their hair out for a comparable period of time?



Hi Uzma,

Clocking in here at 11 years... and counting.


Great hair... healthy! long... soft... shaped ends...

Agreed! Sometimes it's a matter of visiting here when you can, not necessarily as often as you might want.

"Queen of the Rink"....LOL, in my dreams, perhaps!

When I think of perfect hair, I see straight, shiny light brown hair at bra strap length. It's interesting how several people like hair that they personal could achieve or isn't too far off from their own (Uzma and Monica, for example.) So while sometimes we want the opposite of what our creator gave us (straight vs. curly, brown vs. blonde) perhaps we cherish an idealized version of ourselves as that which is best.

To me it would be my own hair!
Its extremely thick, has growth potential for more than knee-lenght and a reddish blonde that makes it shine like gold in the sun!

í like my hair as it is- although it could be a little bit longer, about waist-length. i can`t imagine 100 per cent healty ends... so i guess i`m happy with a bit dry hair with split ends... alanis morissette has great hair-i totally agree with you, brunette beauty! sorry for the bad english, it`s not my native language. i`ll try to cope with my english-maybe it`ll even get better by chatting with you.
LOL

On a girl, very long and in no way permed,
chemically straightened, bleached, streaked
or dyed. The color doesn't matter, though
lighter (not necessarily brighter - I like dull
ash blonde) MAY be an advantage.

I don't have a specific description of "great hair."
There are some styles that look Great on some people, but wouldn't on anyone else. To me, if it is healthy, clean, and has body it is great! And, many people aren't happy with their own, they like the other person's hair. Sorry I was a bit vague there.

Perfect hair.

For me I belive waist lenght to just a bit longer, full rich brown with intence red highlights would be nicest. I think straight is prefered becasue it can be curled. basicaly for my hair Id want it a bit reddrer than it is. Id also like it to automaticaly and magicaly be whatever legnth i feel like so i could have floor lenght tresses just for a little while and then go to short then waist.

as for hair on others. Ive seen gals with all colors and lenghts that i have admired and loved. i really like these natural large loose spirals ive seen on some people which i cant recreat. I also loved this one girls hair way back in highschool. hers was shoulder lenght but it had these perfect boing boing curls that wer no larger than your finger. her hair was a rich chestnut brown and she was very pretty too.

For my own hair, perfect would be a return to "shine" since a recent cheap dye seems to have stripped it. And it would be free of split ends.

Perfect hair on others? Shiny/glossy hair with any cut or style that complements the face.

Rose Mc Gowan's hair is nice , I love the blondish red color although I think Holly Marie Coombs has the best hair (she is on Charmed). Nice color nice lenghth especially when it was near waist lenghth. She just took off about 5-6 inches still looks nice though. Thats how I would like my hair to look when it gets longer. I also like Demi's and Amber Tambylin's from Joan of Arcadia.

Peace

Naturally wavy, or wavy due to putting hair in braids.
Black or dark brown with sun-kissed highlights.
Mid-back to waist length.
Completely natural.. no chemicals to create the style - just flowing the way hair should be.

that's funny, u just described my hair :)
