...long long ago, way back when I was a sophomore in highschool my hair was just past my shoulders. Long enough to be called long, but not nearly as long as I wanted.
One summer I went to Kings Island (a theme park) and being the hair noticing freak that I am, I envied a woman whos hair was long enough to braid and lay over her shoulder in front of her. I remeber thinking "I want to be able to do that, I love that style".
Now I can do that when ever I want, tee hee!!!
But I still remeber her and my wishing =)
Does anyone have a simular story?

A similar story? Um.... let's see.. not sure how well this measures up, but here goes:
A long long time ago, way back when I was about the same age, I, being the hair-noticing freak that I was and still am, went to Kings Island and saw one (yes, only one) girl who had hair as long as waist-length (mind you -- and I'm revealing my age -- this was September 1982, when long hair was NOT "in"). She and her hair were very pretty. Also, saw "The Flock of Seagulls" perform there that day, but that is probably a subject for a different hair board.

It was starting to brew in my head when I was 14 and had access to the internet at school to check out all sorts of images and artforms. Especially drawen depictions of people. The internet in religion class, Jesus Christ was literally a stepping astone, the first step in a more gorier and virtuous version of myself.
http://www.blackguard.com/images/colors/female_war_color.jpg A dream of what turned me on (The image is say PG-13. Nothing not safe for work, but not puritan either. Warriors don't wear dresses. This proves the point. Possibly a bit too much.)
And in the summer before I turned 16, I went for it. All the way, until I die. Having it fixed up, I have no problem with (imagine 3.5 years of abuse with minimal/zero care) but cutting it, even to the neck now is out of the question.
I hate all of the following and lots more : Fundamentalists, racists, sexists, fascists, ageists (people saying seniors = senile , kids = stupid , 18 = immature or a combo of them), and bigots for causes yet to receive their own designation.
In 1982 I had very very short hair. I was 5 and my best friend was a tomboy who kept her hair inches short like a boy....so i cut mine the same way. It was originaly several inches past my shoulders (which in my 5 year old mind I thought was long hair) and when it was cut it was boy short like Taryn's.
Well, I liked it for a week then all I wanted was my long hair back, but being a young gal my parents kept it short (not boy short but shoulder lenght or shorter and styled when I was older with a perm---at least they let me get a perm when I asked in 4th grade). In 6th grade I finaly refused to let them cut it but I still got horrible perms which caused more damage and some nessesary cuts. In eight grade I decided never to get another perm and never to have hair shorter than bra strap lenght...and that is that.
so there =)
