I've been looking around on the site for awhile and responding to anything I have advice about. Thought I'd finally introduce myself.
I'm 20 years old, living on the West Coast. Trying to decide what I want to do for a living and if I'd like to go to beauty school just to do it. I love to do hair and makeup and nails. I'd LOVE to know how to do the elaborate braids I've seen pictures of on this site and various other sites.
I don't have anything amazing or fantastic to tell you about, my hair is 6 inches long after a hair disaster that I posted about on another board (can't remember which one offhand) and I'm trying to keep patient enough for it to grow out long like it used to be.
Before I started killing my hair with dyes, it was about waist length and very thick, and really very beautiful (too bad I didnt realize it then!). It grew out brown then turned into auburn and finally strawberry blonde, and had a slight wave to it. I'd walk down the street and cars would slow waaaaay down, then you'd see guys peeking thru the rearview mirror...hehe

I know you all have seen guys do this!!! Any man who says he doesnt appreciate long hair on a woman is either lying or in denial.

My sister also has fabulous hair. It's at about hip length, light brown/blonde and wavy and just amazingly thick, and I'm insanely jealous every time I see her. If she will let me I'll post a picture of her hair, I promise you you have never seen hair like this in your life! And if I can find a pic of my hair when it was long, Ill post that also but I think the photo albums are put away somewhere.
This site is a lifesaver for me, every time I get the urge to do something to my hair I just come here and look at all the beautiful long hair and remind myself that patience WILL be rewarded!
