Long hair ladies, can I live vicariously through you?

My coworker just went "Look it's Pocahontas!" :lol:

The fact that my hair is in its curly state and he called me Pocahontas tho....:love: (Means my ish must be obvious now!)

I told him "Yeah. I'm Afro-Pocahontas!" :lol:

I just discovered last nite I'm at 30 inches!!! Which is hip length on me! :D

Now you know @SmilingElephant, that you cannot tease us with the hip length comment and not post a picture. So… :needpics:.
 
SO had a couple guys over. Shower drain was acting up, had to wash henna treatment out.

I washed it out in kitchen sink, the guys like hanging out there when they come over.
Once I started to rinse, one came over and asked to hold the sprayer to help me.

I'm used to these knuckle heads so I said sure. Mind you SO never assist me anyway, shape or form when it comes to my hair. I felt happy to have a mans help with my hair :rolleyes:.

As he rinses out the treatment, the other friend comes over like, "Hey you missed a spot". He than takes control of the sprayer and gets the missed spots :drunk:
As I write this, it's sounds so dirty:giggle:.
I known these guys for years so it didn't feel weird. I really liked it, and seeing their eyes :eek::eek:

It's just hair he says? Yeah right. Watch you cut it all off and see if it's just hair to him.

He actually liked my hair when I big chopped back in 2013. Rocking a twa that I could only wear a wng style. It was too short for anything else.
He pretends not to care but long as it's done nicely, I see him looking at my hair when he thinks I'm not paying attention.

But he funny money like that.
I get complements every now and again from him.

Now if I cut it bald... Yea he probably go into shock :eek2: then pass out.

A couple of weeks ago DH and I went shopping in the mall. At some point while we were walking he stops. I keep walking then turn to see what he's doing. He's got this smile on his face and says, "Wow, I didn't realize your hair was so long! I was just looking at you and was like where did all this hair come from! You look great honey. Whatever you're doing to it don't stop"

Now, DH and I have been together foreeeeever, lol. He's seen my hair in so many styles. When it's on point he's the first to compliment me, he's always loved my hair. But that moment, when it was just half up, half down, nothing special, was a first. He's never just stopped like that, taken back by it. It was pretty cool :D

So sweet!
 
I still cannot believe how freakishly long my hair is! *insert girly squeal* :giggle:

Yo! If anybody is aiming for a ridiculously long length...once you reach it, the feeling is just...wow lol! I guess bc it took so much work and time and crazy glares from ppl that are unfamiliar with your hair care practices. It's well worth it!:yep:

I was gonna try and flat iron it...but this Florida heat and humidity does not support that notion. So instead I'm gonna go to the Carribbean supermarket and find some Dominican treatments. :lick:

My little cousins came over yesterday asking me about my hair. So I told them what I use and even moisturized their hair with my products.

It was so cute with them whispering as they followed me around about my hair. :lol: They didn't know that I heard them lol

I'm that one mysterious cousin with the stupid long hair lololololol! :lachen: The Hippie status is official now!
 
I just took out my box braids and I'm about ten months into my transition so I couldn't tell how long my hair was right off the bat.

Now, my mom never gives me credit where credit is due with my hair unless it's in terms of styling. Like she'll never just tell me that my hair is long or that it looks nice. But I guess my hair grew quite a bit longer because when I came down and she saw my hair she just stared at me for a while until I was like what??? And she just started pouring on the compliments saying that my hair is so long and thicker now.

It was a really good feeling :) I've gotten a lot of compliments and it's so satisfying to know my hard work is paying off

For the first time in my adult life, I can tie my hair up in a bun using nothing but my hair.

Hope the pic posts. Not too impressive as a bun, but I'm thrilled that I can tie my hair up - and it stays tight! Never ever been able to do this! :grin:

Shrinkage will do it to you! :lol:

I feel you.
I am too through with the shrinkage I'm thinking of straightening for the holidays maybe yay will satisfy my shrinkage woes.
I'm looking at those you tubers who have passed shoulder apl curly who are bsl and beyond to see if I'm missing something or doing too much.
 
So my hair is not that long at all, but I felt like this was the place to post this.

I don't wear my hair out very often but it's extremely dense so with the right amount of humidity I get a juicy fro the size of my head. I let it out today and got a lot of compliments. The most interesting one was from a stranger in my class:

Her: Your hair is So pretty. If my natural hair was like yours I wouldn't cream (relax) it.
Me: Ha ha. Thanks.
Her: (5 minutes later) You know what you need? Some Nair. Some Nair in your shampoo.

:nono2:

Girl don't do it. Don't even joke.
