    On a positive note, I have stopped jumping and screaming every time I looked in the mirror.

    Re. Thumbnails. We are trying to discouraging the use of too many large images because they make viewing difficult unless you have very fast connection.
    Smart growing it out for a little longer.

    My cousin's daughter wants to grow her hair as long as yours was; she wants me to to it as well. My hair grows so slowly though, but why not? I'll just have to grow it out even longer. Then when I have it cut I can donate my hair without having to suffer very short hair!

    Anyway, I'll post a picture before I have it cut...in five years time.

    Good call re the thumbnails!

    Thank you, Sancho. Lucky catch in the gene pool

    Cut it because of this. The thread was started four years ago when I had it cut for the first time.

    Yes, that's my hair, Qimi... While it was still attached to my head.
    Thanks for all the information on coconut oil, by the way. I had no idea. Might give it a try. Think it might make it grow quickly?

    See you in 2016?

    Hey, I will probably doing it again by then! We can arrange to have them cut on the same day maybe.

    I am hoping that I will have a decent bob by Christmas.

    Cut it because of this.
    Ah-hah.

    I don't use this word lightly, and I don't use it often, but that is AWESOME!
    Uhhhh...

    Scher's a nice lady, no matter what anybody says. (kidding!)

    It might help it grow faster, Scher. I don't know if that's one of the claims. It will make it shiny and soft. It's really good to ingest a bit, too. Coconut oil has lots of good properties. Just get a good one, you want to get Virgin Coconut Oil (no jokes, please).

    It's also really good for your skin. I've been using it for about a week, and let's just say that it has made a difference. It takes a bit of getting used to, because it is an oil. Here's more about it here; same web site, just expanded:

    Please don't spread rumours, Qimi... However far fetched they might be, some might start to believe them.

    I will see if I can find some coconut oil at the supermarket next time I am there and get back to you!

    Coconut oil you say? I think I'll give it a whirl. I used to use jojoba oil for my hair but it got diffcult to find so I stopped.

    Yeah, jojoba good for a lot of things, too. I think you can still find it online, papaya. But coconut oil has lots of good properties, too. You might like it also.

    Hey, that's an idea, hehe. I swear, growing my hair that long will probably take as long as that. I don't even want to think about the time I'll have to spend in the mornings drying and styling it It's for a good cause I guess.

    My friend Janine once asked me not to cut my hair but I had a haircut today by my unprofessional sister. Though she believes it looks fine but I have a feeling I look ridiculous! I had a bad hair day. I guess I also need some coconut oil now.
