Dude thats creepy. The end. Who wants fake hair in their head. XD Besides, for most girls its a life or death affair if your hair is ugly, don't you know.

Btw, Kenjiro, that joke is cute! XD
Btw 2, who knew Locks of Love was weird like that.. hur. o_o


Well some girls actually like to get extensions or weaves so I guess it's jsut who you ask.


Aren't they pretty expensive though? Fake hair doesn't come cheap. :P

I don't really know if you should get it cut or not... perhaps try a new style? I guess being so long, it's hard to change it. I had my hair cut recently, it was past shoulder length, and I don't really like it now. So this post is really undecided, hehe.

Not really, it's the real hair extensions or weaves that cost a lot, and even then it's not that much. With fake hair it depends...

I really like the idea of only cutting a little off at a time. I had a horrible hair experience 7 years ago or so. My hair was roughly the same length as it is now, an inch or two past my shoulders. On the advice of my hair stylist, I let him cut most of it off, so my hair was only an inch and a half long. It was by far the worst haircut I had ever gotten in my life, and once my hair grew back to a reasonable length, all of my friends asked me what I was thinking when I cut it. So, my advice is take your time if you're going to cut it, because once it's gone, it takes a long time to come back.

Heh. I don't even know what hair extensions are.
As far as the life or death if the hair's ugly thing, that's not really me. My hair's ugly most of the time now anyway.
I don't think I'd get it cut partway. Because it wouldn't really help it be all that much more manageable, which would be the point of getting it cut. Gah. I wish I could see what I would look like with short hair without actually getting it cut. *goes to experiment in front of the mirror*

Edt// Oh, and one thing I'd definitely want to avoid is the length that's long enough that you have to put it in a ponytail sometimes to get it out of the way, but there's only about an inch sticking out. I hate that.

Long hair is wonderful, but it's a lot of hard work. I know that from experience. Also, I think a really neat trendy shorter hair cut would look great with your face. Either way, you can't lose, but my vote is cut your hair. I got a short hair cut last June and the freedom of that was amazing. However, you should make your decision based on what you really want. What other people think shouldn't matter.

Every two years or so, I get the impulse to cut off most of my hair. Usually I have about a foot's worth of hair lopped off by whichever friend is sitting there and wants to try her hand at hairdressing. I always get haircut remorse afterwards, but my hair grows fast enough that it's not terribly depressing. If your hair grows slowly, you may want to get it cut to somewhere near the point where your shoulderblades almost touch, because that's a fair compromise between short and long. And if you're used to pulling your hair back, I say don't get it cut so short you can't pull it into a ponytail, especially if you have it longer than maybe three inches. My hair was infuriating at the point where I couldn't tuck it behind my ears like I usually do. It kept falling into my line of sight and distracting me when I was writing or working on homework, and there was no way to keep it back(hair clips and such do not get along with my hair).
In the end, the only way you really find out how attached you are to your hair is to lose it, by which point it's a little late. So do whatever you want, as long as you're willing to accept that no matter what you do, you'll be at least a little unsatisfied. That's always been my experience, anyway.

On the subject of hair extensions--ew. Fake hair. It's kind of like fake nails, in that they look weird, they feel weird, and you have to spend time adjusting to them. Comfort always wins over fashion for me.

Actually, and I did this for a play we did, I had to wear extensions for about 3 months, off and on, and my mom took me to buy real hair extensions, like from actual hair, and they didn't feel fake at all, so I guess it's just how the person perceives it I guess... If that's the correct way to say it >.>

Well. So after spending ages in the shower combing all the tangles out, I'm reminded of why I was considering cutting it to begin with- because it's a pain in the butt and I'm sick of dealing with it. I think that matters more to me than how it looks, and anyway, it's such a pain to shower that I don't do it often enough and my hair is always dirty and looks bad anyway. Nothing definite yet, but I think I'm leaning towards getting it cut.

...Which leads me to my next problem. I haven't had it cut since the summer after 5th grade, so I have next to no experience with short hair. So, um... advice? Suggestions on how I should get it cut? I'd want something that doesn't require much work, and I'd need some way to keep it out of my eyes. But other than that, um, yeah. Suggest away :)

Heh, for actual style... I think having maybe mediumish-length hair (a little above the middle of your back, I guess) would be good, but I also think that having your hair in front cut to frame your face would look really good. So basically, having it cut so that it's shorter in front, but gradually gets longer from front to back. If that makes sense. D=

Noooooooooo!! It's gorgeous.

and I thought I had long hair

It does annoy me when I have to wash and comb my hair, but because I'm bored when I do either it doesn't bother me.......... until I get tangles :x

When I get mine cut, I usually keep mine between shoulder and collarbone length. That's partly because of my facial structure, but mostly because I can still pull it back, can still wash it easily, and don't have to do anything else to it to make it look like I want it to look. If you're looking for ease, I'd say that's a good length. If you're looking to be able to actually do something to it besides keep it presentable--like dye it, style it, or whatever--shorter lengths are better.
Bangs are...okay, but a lot of people look better without them. I'd say get them if you're pretty sure you want them and you're going with short hair, because then growing them out(if you don't like them) wouldn't be so hard.

My opinion (which is always good) Is to cut it just a tad, it saves shampoo and conditioner ;) perhaps to around half way down the torso. This will allow it to still look long, although you've had it cut and would also allow it to flow elegantly in the wind.
See, my tips rock xD I've met Kim and Agie, must have got power from them 0:)

OOHHHH your hair is so beautiful!! *squeak*

But yeah, get it cut. It's in such gorgeous condition you need a great cut to show it off, and a change is always good.

Get a haircut like mine :P

I used to have my hair that's long, hehe, memories.
Well, it's your choice actually, depends if you prefer long, mid-long, shoulders or short hair, but I think maybe, not short, but shorter hair, could be yknow kinda more.. volumish, could be great looking. :)
