For one, I believe the first story about as much as I believe the Brooklyn Bridge is for sale. Just saying.

I've seen quite a bit of very nice long hair. The longest I have seen was on a Native American woman shopping at Goodwill. It was floor length and impossibly silky and shiny. She even let me touch it after I complimented her on it and apologized for almost stepping on it. The most beautiful I have seen recently was the sable brown with blonde highlights/tips, almost waist length ponytail on the male Walmart associate who was working the self checkouts yesterday. I've seen so much beautiful hair, of all lengths, textures, colors, & genders, though, that it's hard to say exactly which is the best ever I've seen.
