Hello,
Im a 47 yr old homemaker that has been trying to grow my hair, I keep cutting it. :( Its healthy,thick, graying,(tho people tell me it looks blonde)used to be dark strawberry blonde. I love reading all the forums, and can use any support to stick with growing my hair this time around! Its short and very layered now. So, I have my work cut out for me! ------------- dolcecasa! |

Thanks! Since Im trying to grow, I will take good care
of it! Only style when I go to church and out, that being minimal styling. Ive come to believe short is NOT easier. Live and learn. I like Natures Gate Shampoos and Conditioners! Anyone else use those? And Pantene flex hold hair spray. Not too often tho. Thanks for the input! ------------- dolcecasa! |

Thanks Susan!
Went to church yesterday, and as usual got all these compliments on my short hair! Never got them when it was long as usual. Oh well, I try only to do alot to it when I go somewhere. Ive got a long road ahead of me, I pray I can do it. Its so layered and I can almost feel the bad times ahead. I saw Susans hair journey, and wow, what a great head of hair you have now! ------------- dolcecasa! |

Thanks so much! Layers are always a pain to grow out when you
have them, but I have to say I've seen some people do it very
gracefully. By only getting the layers on the bottom trimmed and
letting the upper layers grow, you wind up with a gradually lengthening
bob, which can look very stylish as it grows. (I remember my boss
(who is near 60) doing that, so she just looked like she went through a
series of stylish haircuts, then stopped when it got chin length and
one length.) Good luck! ------------- Making metal barettes/concord clips hair safe, long hair style how to: http://alonghair.wordpress.com |

Susan,
That is a good way to grow out the layers, Im going to wait quite awhile before I trim the bottom length/layer, as it is only about 5 in long! Im going to try and wait at least 6 mos before I go get a "cleanup" How long is your boss' hair now? Is it gray? just curious!:) thanks! ------------- dolcecasa! |

She has kept it as a one length chin length bob for the past few years. Her hair is a mixture of white and silver. ------------- Making metal barettes/concord clips hair safe, long hair style how to: http://alonghair.wordpress.com |
