On having mental hair

Okay, I think I can call it official. I’m quitting keeping my hair short. It’s too much styling maintenance and when it grows like, half an inch, it looks like ass. Frizzy, dry, half-curly half-80s ass.

I’m renewing my quest for mermaid hair. Well-conditioned, frizz-free, flat-ironable mermaid hair, that is. But in doing so, I’m going to have to go back a little while in time…. back to a day of the perfect bangs. God, I want these babies back so much.

  • I SO want those bangs. Mine? Way to straight, and constantly in my eyes. Maintenance is what kept me from short hair as well.

  • Ok - confession time. I once had VERY long hair, down to the small of my back.

    It was my "Biker-Hair". I was riding a motorcycle when I lived in Arizona and long hair was easy to deal with. I have *EXTREMELY* curly hair - the low humidity of Arizona was perfect for making it easy to deal with.

    In 1999 I moved to Massachusetts. My first fall there, 95 degrees and 95% humidity, convinced me that maybe a shorter style was better for me. (The puff-ball on the back of my head that used to be my pony-tail was annoying at best)

    I came home that night and my wife started asking me if I'd enlisted. Ok, maybe I went a bit too far. ;-)

  • Lou: You are too sweet. Really. Why? What's really wrong with you? ;)
  • VCRG: I believe on men, then they to look uber-emo, oui?
  • SMS: Thanks for the bang envy. But ya, I'm thinking they'd be much more fabulous on you. What with that light eye/dark hair combo? Yahuh. Do it, for sure.
  • P: Welll, yours are hot.
  • Miss: You totally put me back in those high school sleepover movements where everyone would do the other girls' hair. Didn't do that? No, me neither.
  • Jim: What does that even mean?
  • You have gorgeous eyes. And great cheekbones. And, I think I detect the topping on the cake - freckles. Beautiful.

  • I love having short hair, but like you, when it grows, it sucks ass. Especially because I don't believe in actually SPENDING money on my hair and rely on my son's father to do it (he's a hairstylist). He'll do it for me as often as I request, but I feel bad taking advantage, you know?

  • ah, the supermodel bangs.
    universally hot looking on every woman (and some men, lol)

  • Glad I found you....I am the world's most organized procrastinator! But, like you, when I get on a roll, it all gets done...and then some!
  • I've been craving somethin' wild and you might inspire me. Bangs? Hmmm. That photo is beautiful. I need a change....

  • Dang ... those are some perfect bangs! Loves long hair, but it is a lot of work for me since I have a major head full of hair. Short is no good either ... way too much work. So, i for the in between. I bet you would look fab with long hair! Good luck on the grow out process!
  • I totally would experiment with long hair, but it's the no man's land hair in between long and short that I'd have to endure. And on me? It looks like a monchichi (if you don't get my reference, it was an 80's monkey doll that had fuzzy hair). I can't give you all fodder to make fun of. Well, additional fodder, that is.
