=============================================================
In 1994 I made a decision to quit perming and cutting my hair. For years I had always admired women & men with long hair. I have stayed true to myself to date, and my hair is now almost to my knees, as you can see below. I trim once a year, and NEVER blow dry it. Once in 1998, due to a traumatizing botched trim by a hairdresser, I lost nearly 8 inches in one day. I will NEVER set foot in a salon again. My youngest daughter trims it for me now.

I love the wavy look that lots of little braids give. Perm for a day !!
This is not a real good picture, but I don't have many pictures of my hair YET. This was while my grandson was coming into the world. Yep, I'm a granny!!!
