I think it would be interesting to describe our hair and discuss why exactly we wear our hair as we do - including minor details. Here is my hair description: my hair is a self-cut, past-chin-length bob, with no chemical processing whatsoever (dyeing, highlights etc) or even the slightest hint of hairspray. I wear it like this because I perfer to cut it myself (a bob is easier to do so) and because I think shorter hair doesn't do justice to my face. I also have no desire to change its color (dark blond) and preferr being natural. Nor do I want gunk or chemicals in my hair. I'd probably think the same way if I were a girl. |

My hair is natarally brown, straight and tailbone length. It's fun to play with, fun to annoy my friends with because I won't cut it when they want me to and it is long partly for religious reasons, but as it was long when I found that part of the Bible it is more why I maintain it and keep it long .------------- http://www.myspace.com/waltzin_with_the_open_sea - http://www.myspace.com/waltzin_with_the_open_sea Ah-ha, a place I can soon add hair pics...once I do some |

Interesting questions, Duke. My hair is: - uncut since August 2002 when it was cut into long layers – it will never be cut again - down to my bra-strap at the back and falling onto the tops of my breast at the front - predominantly black/dark brown with a light sprinkling of frost - straight till my ears, then long loose waves through the length and a fine curling tendrils near the temples and at the back of the neck - very thick and now quite soft (thanks to good conditioners) - not chemically processed in any way (coloured or permed or straightened) because I love what Nature has done with it - not blown dry or heat styled at all - something I love to wear loose because it frames my face and it makes me feel taller (which is good when you’re 5ft 3”) but since an unfortunate incident on public transport, I am wearing it tied up and away from inquisitive fingers. - up in a bun of some sort during the working day – for safety and convenience. - worn in a semi up-down style during evenings out, which allows me to transition from a formal to an informal environment and back again, with ease and in comfort. Best wishes, ------------- Uzi |

My hair is between chin and shoulder length (close to chin and front, closer to shoulders at back) it was cut into layers numerous times a long time ago, it's quite thick and wavy (well very wavy anyway) stick out from my head a lot and is dyed a darkish red with jet black roots. I love the red, but I need to retouch it. It's a little darker because of a messed up purple dye job (that was cool for a while when it faded a little) can't wait till it's a little lighter so I get can everything done up again. Also I rarely get a chance to wash it more than 2 times a week. http://ww.geocities.com/apromisinglocalband/hair.txt - http://ww.geocities.com/apromisinglocalband/hair.txt That's my hair ^_^ It's a little old though. I love my hair and want it to grow very long. There are no real reasons. I love dyed hair, I love long hair. It's wavy because it is and I gave up trying to straighten it and have started to love it now that it's longer. I love nature but I think that to fully appreciate something nature is given you, you need to play around with it ^_^ |

My hair is naturally dark brown and I color it "medium golden brown" to give it some highlights and to lighten it up a bit. I never use heat on my hair and I don't often wear it up because it's so pretty and feminine when it's down (I have that tossled look going on). I'm letting my hair grow; right now it's about 3 inches below my shoulders with layering up front that starts around my mouth. My hair is very thick, shiny, and healthy. The layers give it movement and I love them.  ------------- [IMG]http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n89/yerdumm/tapdancer2.gif" /> |

Let's see. . . my hair is very fine/thin, so if it grows too long it looks very flat and limp. However, it also grows in weird directions in some places, so the shorter it is, the more problems I have getting it to behave some days. I'm trying to find the optimum balance to make it behave its best. Currently it's a little longer than my picture because it's in an in-between stage while I try to figure what length will make it lay best and be easiest to style with the least product and effort. It's deep burgundy-red because I got bored a couple of days ago and used some dye that had been sitting around a few months. I dunno how long that'll last, though. *shrugs* Just have to see how I feel. I like to do my own hair because I have bad experiences with stylists, and only go to them if I want a style too complex to do myself. I'm very adventurous about trying new things with it, and not afraid to do a little damage control if something goes wrong. I also like to experiment with accessories no matter what style I'm wearing, because I don't like to feel limited in my styling choices. *hopes that's enough, as it's a small novel as it is* ------------- More awesome than a manatee! |

I like this board! I should have posted a long time ago! Well, right now I have virgin hair. It is all one length with the front being about one inch past my chin and the back being 2 inches past my chin, so as you can imagine it has an angled look. I usually wear it parted on the side with a clip to pull it back so it doesn't fall in my face. It's naturally straight, so it has a tendency to do that. Before, I had processed hair. I would color, perm...it just got too damaged. So, about a year ago, maybe a bit longer, I can't remember, I took the plunge and cut it really short just to get all of the damage out. It was a hard year growing it out, but it's worth it. I'm gald to have the healthy hair back. Reenie ------------- Life is wonderful...when you have a cat.
