I love healthy long hair......Vanity.....

The longest my hair has been was SL so MBL would be absolutely wonderful...:grin: :lachen:
 
I picked "I look best with long hair" but I really don't even know if that's true as I've never really had long hair . . . I've made it maybe an inch or two below shoulder length a few times in my life but that's about it . . . but whenever I do wear my hair down I get lots of compliments . . . so yeah, that's my answer.

And yeah, Tasha's hair looked tight in the movie :D
 
I am growing my hair because I love long healthy hair and I think it's very me and works well with my personal style. Plus there are more ways to style it and ways to just wake up and go since I can make one nice long ponytail in a second and go.
 
So I won't have to keep buying hair :look: :lol: But no seriously, I just want healthy hair right now. The length will come soon enough.

Yesss, I was eyeing saddity's(sp) hair on one of the meeting threads. I would LOVE for my hair to be that long in it's natural state unstretched. I also think it is very exotic to see black women with long hair.
 
Quite a few reasons. I like long hair on me, my man loves long hair and I think it allows for more versatility when it comes to styling.

LOL!!!:lachen:Yeah, that's one of my reasons.:look:

I always had a bob or a weave style. SL was the longest my hair has ever been. Plus, I want to prove to myself and others that i can grow my hair to BSL. I want to see the look on their faces when I'm finally there!

So, it's for the challenge!
 
I look great with long hair. Plus I love the look of long (real) hair on a black woman. So what better black woman to rock it than me?:grin:
 
I'ts become something of a personal challenge to me everytime I compare pics from months ago, I enjoy seeing people's shocked faces when they havent seen me in a while, and I love the feel of it on my back.
 
My hair has never been this long. I think black women look good with long beautiful long hair. Others underestimate the power of black women hair but we dont!
 
I just wanted a new look. I had the short Halle cut for so long...decades long and it was old and tired and I just wanted something different before hitting 40....(will be 38 soon)lol. I plan to keep long hair for a while and then cut it off again and go natural with a little white or salt and pepper fro or short cut...not sure yet.
 
Always loved long hair even at a very young age. Now I have the healthy hair so I am going for the GOLD!!!

I am going to have long long healthy natural hair, grown from my own head, not bought from the store or otherwise!:lachen:

I want to see more women of color with all natural 4bcdefgh (based on the newest hair scale) that is down their back NOT STRETCHED!

These sista's are few and far between and I plan on being one of them as folks stare in amazement! I am ready for the assignment.

Now that would be one interesting purpose in life huh!? Well I am going for broke!!!:grin: Why not?!

Ya'll keep me in prayer, because this is certainly a challenge!:look:
 
Why am i growing my hair long? Even though I just cut it, I like it long enough for my boyfriend to still be able to hold on to it...Men like long hair. PERIOD. They need something to grab on.
 
I honestly want a pony tail. Just not any regular pony tail. I want one that looks like fake. You know what I'm talking about?! It's healthy thick and hits right below my shoulder blades! That's what I imagine when I am in the mirror...
 
It's a mixture of the first three...I have always loved long hair on others and wanted it for myself. I think I look better with longer hair and the challenge is interesting since it's something I've never had before.

Well, I've never really had longer, healthier hair before...it's pretty much to prove to myself and others that african women can grow long hair. Plus, I think that I look better w/ long hair. Also, I wanted my hair long for my college graduation...no weave for me!

wow the whole statement is me. Im trying to get to ap for graduation in June.
 
My goal on my journey was always for healthy hair, no matter what the length. I find I do love the way long hair looks on me plus it's fun to have long hair! I love it! I also find that black women in particular look exotic with long hair, whether they are young or advanced in years. :)
 
I agree with Nicole1976, I think it looks exotic on black women because you don't see it that much. Also, personally I feel that I look better with longer hair. Short hair just doesn't become me as much.

Ooooo, I LUV your bob! I had my hair cut like that when I was in high school and I used to get compliments all the time on it.
 
MizzBrown, that's REAL talk!! :lachen: :lachen:

Have never had long hair, barely had SL hair back in highschool (it sat right on top of my shoulders). Want to see if I can do it, want to see how I look with long hair. Seems to be easier to care for as far as conveinence goes (throw it in a pony, a bun, braidout, etc).

Health before length tho. :)
