Grandma's long hair
Sep 4^th, 2007 at 11:15am

Hi all,

I don't know if you remeber me telling you about hubbies swedish grandma who hair floor lenght hair? I asked for a picture and finally got it!

This picture was taken in 2000. She cut it to tail bone length! Mind you she was over 90 and look it not grey, top was grey. Here daughter use to care for her and would do her hair. I think she washed it once month and wore it in updo. She was a teacher in a one room school house and was still driving till she was 95! Cool grandma! I never met her and wish I had but what can you do? Roll Eyes

Edited by Bikerbraid to correct the image tags so we can all see grandma!

She's my hair idol! Hubby read my post lastnight and wanted to add that she lived to the age 97 and she was 6' 2". She was taller then him! His whole swedish side is 6" and up, again I hate to say that after 18 years of marraige I have never met them. Huh

Thats a whole other kettle of fish best not opened.

My grandmother lived to be 90, had thigh length very thick gray/brown hair. I got her hair genes. She also had to cut her hair when she went into her living facilities. Debr

I will never have that ugly, short perm that some women seem to think is mandatory for those over fifty... And I'm swedish and my great grandma had classic lenght hair and runned the family business 'til she died, at the age of 94. I want to be like her, haha.
