Much Mahalo! I enjoy doing hair... that whole Disney Pocahantus sort of thing... because we all know it doesnt do that in real life (I've got some photos from my birthday where they told me to unbraid my hair when I was on the beach, and I had the beautiful pocahantus moment for all of a second... and then a bunch of photos of my hair just ATTACKING ME! And a few where it looks like its actually trying to EAT my face! Pricelesly funny actually, but trust me the brushing the knots out after... NOT WORTH IT!) LOL

Anyway, in art though, you can totally pull it off without all that mess that happens after! its sort of theraputic-ish

*chuckles* Yeeeeah... when I chopped all mine off there was a moment of "sniff! no pretty hair pictures!" after which I remembered all those wind knot moments, and fighting with it when it came to helmets and keeping it out of the way... I was far more resolute about my decision, lol.

LOL I hated myself for chopping off more than a foot of mine last year when I found out I was pregnant (Dont ask me, I just decided I HATED it all at once... Im blaming that irrational pregnancy thing) It was still below my shoulder blades (It was half way between my bum and my knees before I hacked it) snd then after the twins were born, it started falling out so now its "in recovery" and is all just sad, but its still very long and flowy, just a whole lot less thick than it was before!

I dont know why, but I miss it when its gone(there was a period of my life when I had short hair, and ruined it by bleaching it platinum so often that I just decided to start over and shaved my head once), its sort of part of who I am.... Im a long hair sort of girl. I tried the other thing, but I just missed it so much that I've come to accept that its me

AND with that said, there are days when I want to shave it all off, because its such a high maintenance pain in the bum to do anything with! LOL

Ah but I can sketch it out all kinds of ways, and not have to worry about the messy clean up afterward! LMFAO... escapism at its finest!

See... I thought I would be the same way... Really miss it when it's gone... but so far not really. I'm not sure why that is either, lo. Because I think long hair is gorgeous and fun to play with for dressing up and such, but... I dunno... short hair apparently sits well with me, hehe.

Now on horses >.> being raised with an arabian I even liked when my TB had long hair, hehe... tho it made him look a little unkempt.

Oh man after my Client's Friesians... yeah I am totally good with having my Arabian's THICK but not terribly long mane! I had a Luso-Welshie when I was a child, her mane grew out to her knees, and I remember constantly keeping it braided to maintain it, same with the lusos at one of the schools I trained at, but with the Friesians, the lice they get in their leg featherings, and the constant battle with brittle snappy hairs, and just the sheer volume in those tails... yeah, I remember trying to teach her how to keep it braided so you could have that pretty hair when you did the show thing... but that was just too much when you got 9 of them to do every day and it takes about an hour to properly dress that stuff per horse... lets just say there is a reason they are kinda 'unkempt" looking in the pasture pics! I think I am completely good without the courtains and courtains of hair... lol but that said, it sure is visually impressive!

For me, yeah, I dont know, I tried everything else on, I think it just fits me best. It was liberating when I shaved it though, that was a fun feeling, when you let go of the fear and just say "JUST DO IT", and you dont have much grooming time after that for several months, that was kinda nice! Didnt care for that look on me though! LOL
