No deep and heavy conversation here this morning. A nice light post. I've been thinking about hair lately.
I love my long hair. I've had MANY styles over the years. Very short, partly shaved, permed, bobbed, different colors, etc etc. I've never been afraid to try new things with my hair. I have finally reached a place in my life though, where I like my hair, and have no intention of changing it. I like it long. I like being a brunette. It is my natural hair color after all. I still have a lot of variety with it because I can straighten it, curl it, put it up, blow it dry, let it dry naturally with curling product in it, etc. Not the same do every day.
I'm not saying that long hair is the best. I do have some friends who really ROCK the short hair. Terra-lee(G), Krista(E) and Lisa(E) to name a few. One thing that makes me a little sad, is those who have long hair and then cut it after a certain age. They tout excuses like, "I'm too old for long hair" "It takes too much time to take care of"! Really? Or "coloring takes too long!" Really? then don't color it. Let it go grey. I have seen so many beautiful women with long grey hair. At some point that is going to be me. I suppose for some it's a lot of work, but.....if you love your long hair, please don't cut it because you feel you have to. If anything, I think long hair keeps you looking younger. Unless you're one of those natural beauties who can basically be bald and still look good! UGH That is definitely NOT me!
How do you think your style will change over the years? As you head into your 50's, 60's, and 70's?
Turn your speakers up for a good song too!
