H. How long is your long hair these days, how long are you planning on growing your long hair, and how long have you worn long hair?

 

It's not very long right now (about 22.5") ....but I'm planning on growing it to hip length.  I have never had really long hair as an adult.

Presently using Dove (!  ) shampoo and Shampure conditioner.  I prefer to use better quality shampoos, though.  I dilute them, so a bottle lasts a long time

Once a week.  Lather, rinse, and repeat.  In summer, the repeat is necessary to keep my hair clean almost until it gets washed again.

Both

None of the above.

H. How long is your long hair these days, how long are you planning on growing your long hair, and how long have you worn long hair?

The longest strands (measured from their roots) are about 64" but as measured by the George Michael standard (from the forehead and over the crown), about 73"?  I'll have to get a proper measurement taken soon.  Of course there are only a few strands at that length.

 

It seems to not be growing any longer; it doesn't seem to have gotten any longer in the past year.

 

I started growing my hair out from a typical short men's haircut in 1992.

 

 

Well, at the moment, I am using Pantene which seems to work fine.

 

B. How often do you shampoo or condition your long hair?

 

Either every day or every other day......it depends. When I take a shower, it's so much easier to just go ahead and wash my hair, too. It seems to stay really healthy and shiny!

 

C. Do you shampoo or condition every time you wash your long hair?

 

yes.

 

D. Do you ever use a clarifying shampoo?

 

no.

 

E. Do you alternate hair products?

 

Well, I don't use much hair products besides shampoo and conditioner, but as for the S & C, I like to try something different about every time I run out and need some more. I'll pick out something different. But I usually end up going back to Pantene.

F. Do you deep condition your long hair? If you do deep condition your long hair, do you have it done at a beauty salon, or do you do it yourself?

 

Yes. I do it myself.

 

G. Do you have your long hair curled, straightened, permed, highlighted or colored? If you do one or more of these things to your hair, do you have it done at a beauty salon, or do you do it yourself?

 

No, I don't. I prefer everything natural.

 

H. How long is your long hair these days, how long are you planning on growing your long hair, and how long have you worn long hair?

 

I'm not sure how long my hair is because I haven't measured in a while....maybe I'll stop feeling lazy one of these days! It is past my butt, though.....around 38-39" long. I will let my hair grow as long as it will with a few trims. My hair has been growing pretty much all my life.

    -I used to use BedHead and Redken AllSoft products, but lately I've taken an intense liking to Herbal Essences.  I also use Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Leave-in Conditioner when my hair needs a quick pick-me-up.
B. How often do you shampoo or condition your long hair?

     -I shampoo it once a week, sometimes less, and I condition it every other day. 
C. Do you shampoo or condition every time you wash your long hair?

     -Nope... I only use shampoo AND conditioner once a week, and I use conditioner every other time I shower.
D. Do you ever use a clarifying shampoo?

     -I do an ACV rinse once every 2 weeks.
E. Do you alternate hair products?

     -Sort of.  When I run out of one shampoo/conditioner, I'll usually buy a new kind.  And I'm always buying different leave-ins and styling products.
F. Do you deep condition your long hair? If you do deep condition your long hair, do you have it done at a beauty salon, or do you do it yourself?

     -I deep condition about once a month at home.
G. Do you have your long hair curled, straightened, permed, highlighted or colored? If you do one or more of these things to your hair, do you have it done at a beauty salon, or do you do it yourself?

     -I dye the bottom (formerly bleached) part of my hair about 3 times a year to avoid being two-toned.  I either do it myself or have my friend (who's a stylist) do it for me.
H. How long is your long hair these days, how long are you planning on growing your long hair, and how long have you worn long hair?

     -My hair is down to my waist when it's dry; down to the waistband of my jeans when it's wet.  I'm hoping to eventually grow it to mid-thigh.  I've been actively growing my hair for about a year and a half, but until 5 or 6 years ago I had tailbone-length hair for most of my life.

My hair is 21" right now, and I'm trying to grow it to somewhere between 30" and 36"

 

It depends.  Currently, L'oreal Fresh-Shine Shampoo (contains no SLS; just a basic shampoo that cleans without containing harmful ingredients) and L'Oreal Vive fresh-Shine Conditioner

 

B. How often do you shampoo or condition your long hair?

 

Every day (I also run 6-7 mornings a week, so I come home literally dripping sweat, especially the hotter the day)

 

 

 

both

 

D. Do you ever use a clarifying shampoo?

 

sometimes, though it's not really needed with what I use

 

E. Do you alternate hair products?

 

sometimes, but my shampoo and conditioner don't tend to build-up, but I'll buy something else just for variety.

 

 

I don't, mine tends to be oily, but if I could figure out how to only conditioner the ends, I would!

 

 
G. Do you have your long hair curled, straightened, permed, highlighted or colored?

 

None, it's natural.

 

 

H. How long is your long hair these days, how long are you planning on growing your long hair, and how long have you worn long hair?

I have "short" long hair!   It's just below shoulder-length.  I've had it probably six inches longer and the shortest is probably a couple of inches above the shoulders.  I'd like my hair to  grow a couple of inches longer, then I'll reassess my goals.

 

Baking soda is a good clarifier....however some ppl find it really harsh for their hair.  I have never had any problems with it though.  You just put a tablespoon or so into about half a litre of warm water and pour it over as a rinse...massage it a little too.

 

I shampoo my hair once in a week

 

I apply oil on alternate days

 

I cut my hair once in 6 months

 

My current hair length : 32 inches

 

Goal : Unlimited

 

Styles : As suggested by my wife

 

I usually prefer Biolage Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner for colored hair, although I've been out of it for a couple of weeks and have resorted to the more typical over-the-counter kinds of hair products until I can get some more.  Right now I am using a Suave shampoo and Infusium  conditioner.

B. How often do you shampoo or condition your long hair?

 

Every other day.

C. Do you shampoo or condition every time you wash your long hair?

 

Yes, although lately, I have been trying to cut back on the amount of shampoo I use.  Now I try to shampoo mainly on the scalp.

D. Do you ever use a clarifying shampoo?

 

Don't think so.

 
E. Do you alternate hair products?

 

Occassionally.

F. Do you deep condition your long hair? If you do deep condition your long hair, do you have it done at a beauty salon, or do you do it yourself?

 

Recently I tried the the mayo treatment which was very clarifying.  And every now and then I will let good conditioner sit on my hair for a long period (+20 minutes), if that counts as deep conditioning.  Also, one of the best deep conditioning treatments I ever got was a heat-activated clay-based treatment from a salon. 

 

G. Do you have your long hair curled, straightened, permed, highlighted or colored? If you do one or more of these things to your hair, do you have it done at a beauty salon, or do you do it yourself?

 

I color my hair myself.  The color I use is very close to my own, so the damage is not that bad.  Years ago, I used to highlight frequently and before that I permed.  That can be very bad for the hair.  It took a while to tone my hair down to a more natural shade.  My plan was to quit coloring.  But by that time, I noticed a grey hair or two, and said, hell no!  So I continue to color.

 

H. How long is your long hair these days, how long are you planning on growing your long hair, and how long have you worn long hair?

 

I think it is about as long as my signature picture.  Right now I am in the 'growing out damage' stage of things.  I trim two inches off, wait several months, trim two inches, off, and so forth.  I like the length, but am not sure how much longer I could take it.  My hair is thick, but fine in texture.  It is probably more susceptable to breakage and split ends than someone who has more coarsely-textured hair.

 

But the ironic thing is that the worst damage occurs as far as split ends and such go, is not at the greatest length (in the back).  No it occurs near the front sides, probably because that is the hair I physically contact with more frequently.   And it is the sides that I would like to get a bit longer.  (My hair cut in that 'U' shaped style - longest in the back and tapering up to the sides, and I have bangs.) 

 

I have had longer hair all my life, although I never got it past my bra strap until I was past 30.  And I was able to do that when I stopped going to professional stylists.  They all seem to think long hair is a couple of inches above the bra line.

 

 

My thoughts exactly!
