I was hesitant to click on your first post, saying to myself: "Self, you know WIW has another imagine there, waiting to jump out at me...." so I clicked it open and gingerly "cursered down." Then surprised to find, "what? No image?!" Saw the "PS," clicked it open, and totally fell for it.
Ya didn't disappoint me, Girlfriend!

Why is that? Why do we get so fixated with our hair? Why not our nails? Or our makeup? Maybe our clothes? Our boobs? (Okay, lets not go there.)
But, really, think about it -- whenever we need a "fix," we turn to our hair. I noticed sometime ago that my fix always comes at the same time of the year -- always FEBRUARY! -- I think it has to have something to do with the distance of the sun from the planet. The earth's pull? Okay, I have no idea what I'm talking about now....

Hair is easy to change... and if it goes horribly awry it grows back in fairly quickly.  Its harder to get fixated on clothes because then you get fixated on body flaws which would require dieting and blah blah blah. It's sort of like no matter how fat you feel you can always shoe shop because your feet don't change size!

I don't plan on growing it past my neck line, but it is "fuller" than I have had it in a long time and if I can make it to the length I am going for, it will be grown over my ears. Haven't done that for years. We'll see how it goes. My hairdresser said that in the stages between now and when it gets to the length I'm going for over my ears....she claims I will be cussing her. Ha!

HI Nugget; I keep following this post.I too am trying to grow my hair to my shoulders,again.My hair was way short before and have tried many times to let it grow out. This time I have not given up and said CUT IT OFF. I am at the stage where it looks,uumm, "Not sure what kind of style it is"phase. It is now long enough on the sides to tuck behind my ears,so far so good. The back is almost to my shoulders,I think I need it trimmed there. To keep it looking presentable is to wet it, mousse it, and blow dry it while pull brushing to curl it under. My hair is natural curly (wavy) so most times it has a mind of its own. My husband asked the other day "Is it not time for you to get a haircut?" I told him I was letting it grow. He just laughed,cause he knows I never really go for it. I am going to prove him wrong this time,(typing as I cross my fingers) . Good luck to you and don't listen to what others say. You do what you want to do, and who cares what other people say of do!!!

thanks for the vote of confidence, Sue. What you wrote sounds so much like what I have gone through in the past when I've tried to grow it out. I end up getting frustrated and saying "Just cut it off!" But I am determined to not do that this time! (I find it hard to type when I have my fingers crossed. ha!) Mine, too is at that stage where it doesn't really have a style.

You're in major luck! I happen to be a complete and utter fashion magazine addict. Pathetic, actually.
But anyway... for the last few months (and I'm sure for the next few, too), it's been quite stylish to have actual haircuts that look (to me) like growing out hair!! Just don't let it turn into a mullet--- that's NEVER good.
There's tons of great products out there (even in the grocery stores and places like Rite Aid and CVS and Walgreens). While it's growing, experiment. And remind yourself- tussled is sexy!!!

So when I wake up in the morning after going to bed with wet hair after taking a shower in the evening....it's really not a mess...it's sexy!

I sure hope to hell that theory is right!
I just cut 8 inches off of my hair a month ago (and love it) but am probably going to get more layers in it soon so I can go with this theory!
