HI, My hair is only about two inches past my chin. I cut it all off in December or January, I don`t remember when, but I was SOOOO Depressed, I instantly hated it. I cut about 12 inches off. Anyways....It has grown 2 inches since I cut it, so ten more to grow, lol. :O) I hang out here, reminiscing of my long hair, lol ------------- *STARLIGHT LOVER* |

Are you really here seeking support or are you trying to bum out all of us true longhair lovers? Isn`t there another thread on HairBoutique.com called "Let me tell you about my mistake" or maybe "Life after getting my long hair cut off and not being popular anymore"? ------------- |

Gord! my hair is serious business. i am sincerely seeking support. hey, i know that i could`ve posted my issue as a mistake, but now that i`ve made it, it`s got to be corrected ... and the only way to correct it is to be inspired by all of you long haired beauties out there. it`s tough ... once you`ve cut it off, you need to hear how someone else made the same mistake but overcame it by waiting patiently for the luscious "mane" to return. ------------- |

You`re welcome! I cut my hair in December. I was cutting to remove a spiral perm I got several months back. So for my hair has grown back about 2 1/2 inches. I trimmed it up a month back. I got a chin length front with a slightly teeniny inverted back. Ok... so now I think I`ll grow it out to about just below my shoulders. I don`t know sometimes I think I`ll stop about just above my shoulders. Anyway GOOD LUCK! ------------- "Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all" |

Good luck with your growing exploits...and I hope the mane reaches your waist in due course. I guess the good thing about your unfortunate chopping is that you now know what you really want...and you will get there. :o) Chris ------------- |

I`m sorry, but I think the idea behind this board is to offer support to those that *have* long hair AND to those that *want to have* long hair. So don`t leave. All the long hair beauties that hang out here had short hair at one time. And if they were told that they had no value or worth until they grew thair hair out, chances are they would not be hanging out here now. At least the ones I know that hang out here. They have way too much self esteem to hang out with people that judge their worth by how long their hair is. Instead, they found encouragement to grow out their hair whether here or somewhere else. Please everyone...it`s OK to think that long hair is the best, but don`t push a long hair wannabe away just because they haven`t reached their hair goal yet. Back to my cave... ------------- |

I totally agree Noreen. I`m glad you said that. They were very mean spirited and simply rude. She was simply asking for support while she grew her hair out again. Come on guys isn`t that what the board is called "Long Hair Support". ------------- "Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all" |

I agree totally... my hair is only 18.5 inches long... just a tiny bit below shoulders. And none of you are going to push me away from this board. It`s called Long Hair Support. Not Long hair ONLY. Lighten up people.. stop being so vain, shallow, uhhh *****y? (<-sorry) We are all supposed to help each other whether we have one inch of hair or 33 or more. ------------- *AmberJune* http://twitter.com/AmberJune01 |

Ah for goodness sakes this board is exactly for people who want the support of growing their long hair. Let the first one who never made a hair mistake throw the first rock. Well I bet noone can throw that rock ! So lighten up. The thing we have to practice in life is this"future ever, past never. Okay Zasani you thought at the time that it was a good idea to cut your hair but learned that it was a mistake for you so the only thing is to do is to look forward, take care of yourself, forgive yourself and really look forward in life. It isn`t worth looking back at our mistakes in life. Everyone made mistakes about their hair. It`s okay. Not serious. Just relax and appreciate the time it takes to grow it back. Pamper yourself during this time and live the life. ------------- dianefromcanada |
