Yes, I love my hair. I freely admit it. In Early October, it was down to my waist. Mid-October, I cut off fourteen (14) inches!!! It was a pain to take care of, and I was starting to think that it wasn't worth it. Actually, come to think of it, if I hadn't been such a romantic I'd have cut it long ago.
Why was it down to my waist when it was such a pain? Like I said, romantic reasons, which are as follows:
When I was really little, my mom made me keep my hair in this horrible pageboy cut.
It looked cute on me, and stuff, but everything looks cute on three-year-olds (the picture is proof). And, as she has said many times (see my guestbook for details), it was not her fault. A four-year-old does not care about practicality, as I did not. I wanted LONG hair. So I waited nine years and grew it out. By the time I was twelve, My hair was to my midback. I have a picture of that somewhere...I'll put it up here when I find it. Sadly, my love of long hair had worn off by then, and I begged my mom to let me cut it into a bob. She relented, and they cut off nearly a foot and a half. Needless to say, I've been repenting ever since. Here's how long my hair was April 2002: 
I never actually did anything with my hair, most of the time. It just kind of sat there on my head, usually up in a bun, although there were a few times I did interesting things with braids and knots with butterfly clips, but that took far too much time. Incidentally, wet hair is the coldest thing in the world. Seriously. When you're going swimming, and you get out of the water and then towel off, and then cold hair hits you in the back...ick.
But anyway, by the time it got down to my waist (I have a picture of that too, but you'll have to wait a bit for me to put it up here), It was really starting to become unweildy. I was in the shower shampooing it and I thought, "no! I can't live like this any more!" So I got out of the shower, combed it out, put it into two seperate braides, and CHOPPED IT! Then I went to Fantastic Sams and got it styled and evened out. Here is the result:
Fourteen inches, and it still looks pretty long! I am very pleased with it, though. It's so much easier to take care of, and it's more flattering. The downside is I can't be Eowyn any more for halloween because I haven't got the hair. Alas. Small price to pay, however.
