This is about what my hair looks like, except a little fuzzier, a little browner, and with the last five inches of her hair just chopped off. (Mine's all one length.)
I'm torn between "doing something" with it and just leaving it be. I have an agreement with my hair. (Don't laugh -- there's a lot of it!) I keep it clean and don't do anything to it, and it doesn't look weird. When I violate the "doing anything" clause, all heck breaks loose. The cowlick over my right eye starts doing its thing, and the curls all die out, probably from shock.
And then there's expectations -- the stylists have an expectation that I'll style it. Once they find out that I wash, condition, comb and walk away, they're more inclined to cut it straight across.
The thing is. The thing is, I've always wanted to chop it off and give it to Locks of Love, but it's like growing out bangs -- just when it's almost there, you lose your grip and whack at it. But this year? Maybe.
Anyone ever do the Locks of Love thing? Just curious...

Mmmm...I beg to differ with your stylists. I go to Kristy, the Hair Goddess. She knows I'm like you, a wash and wear kind of gal, so she cuts it well, starting in back and working to the front, putting in enough shape that it'll lie well and give me at least 3 months between cuts. I suggest you find a proper hair-cutter because it WILL make all the difference.
(And yes, I am GREEN with envy that you can grow such a glorious amount of hair!)
I did the LoL thing once, but it wasn't deliberate. My hair was just that long, and I decided to chop it off and the stylist commandeered the hair for LoL because there was so much of it. I was amenable. I have no hair advice. I'm a no-maintenance girl, too, so I have very tiny layers and sideswept bangs. I'd love to see a photo of your hair if you get it done, though!
