Sorry gang, but I am leaving.  It has been fun this past couple years, but I've decided it is time to "get a life" and move on.  I've made my appointment to trim my hair to a short bob and be done with it.

Hope you all have a wonderful time growing your lovely locks.

Thank you, BikerBraid for all of your wit and wisdom and work on the board.  While I've not been here very long, I've learned a lot from you.

I wish you peace, health and happiness in this new phase of your life's journey.

Namaste,
Sakina

Hey, is this an April Fool's joke?
I just realized today is April 1st.

I'm such a softy... ::)

This better be an april fools thing :-/

This post scared me. :'(

I sure hope it is an April fools joke!

Nahhhhhh
Don't you know your nose will grow biiiig if you tell lies, bikerbraid??? :o :D

<sigh>

Me too.  I'm going to cut mine again.  I already did 7 inches two weeks ago and like it so much that I'm sure that I'll like it even better a bit shorter.

I guess now would be a good time to announce that LongLocks is going away as well, which is probably what's behind BB's post but she didn't want to make the announcement herself.  We've both decided we're a bit too old for long hair and playing with hair jewelry.  No worries for awhile tho, I have many designs that are in the "production" stage, so we'll be around for at least a couple more months.  All special orders and custom designs will of course be honored as well.

Thanks for a great five years everyone!  I'll miss you ALL!  :**

Rapunzel;
Will you be having a going out of business sale?  Lots of beads and stuff for cheap?

Ponytail

Are you kidding me?  I plan to be burried in my beads.  LOL!

That's not fair Rapunzel, not fair at all!!
You still got half my sticks there with you and all my SO's and my CO's and what about my special wedding hairsticks you promised, huh??
Small detail that I haven't even found the hubby-to-be, but who cares? You promised!!! :o >:( :-/

Awww GL, you know I would NEVER leave you high and dry.  All outstanding orders and promises will certainly be fulfilled, that is a **DEFINITE**!

Can we still place new orders??  I was hoping to get a special pair for a special day too!

Egads, no way!  I'm afriad if f I do that I'll have to keep working for years and I am *so* ready to retire!  Sowy :/

Greek Lady - it sounds like you are the reason Rapunzel is in need of retiring.  (or the reason she CAN retire - hmmm wonder which?)

Definitely *need* and not *can*.  She bought all my beads, I only have five left :/

LOL!  ;)

*hangs head in shame  :-[ :-[*

I'll take them!

All this talk of the site closing is sad :'(

BB and Rapunzel, what would we do without you?

Is this really for real? I sure would hate to see you go!
Your never too old for long hair!

is this a joke or what??? this is frightening me!  ???  :'(

well, it frightened me so much i had to buy Storm's Eye rapunzel stick right away!!!  :-[

=================:o

Egads, don't say it!  Yes, yes, it's a tradition here on April 1, which is called April Fool's Day, to play jokes on all your friends.  None of us are going anywhere, I promise!

If you bought the sticks in a panic and you don't really want them, lemme know!  We didn't mean to scare anybody *that* much ;)

Happy April Fool's Day everyone!

Geesh, BB & Rapunzel you scared the *&%$ out of me  :o than I realized it's April Fools Day...Hahahaha, ya got me!  ;) ;D

good one!   ;)

Next year, BB & Rapunzel, you'll have to post pics of your bobbed hair for us to believe you  :o :o :o

Glad I didn't see this post first, though, my brain is fried from work this week, and I'd have fallen for it hook, line, and sinker!

Hope you two are here for a long time - longer than it will take me to get to waist length!  ;D

April Fools!

I meant to get back in here to "clear the air", but a minor emergency at work prevented my getting back here sooner.

Rest assured, we will be here for a very long time.  Thanks for going along with our little prank.   ;D

Hahahahah I just saw this thread... I would totally have fallen for it too, Sakina.  :D

Pinocchios, that's what you are the both of ya, ya hear? Your noses will grow biiiig and they will be visible along the corners of the streets before you reach them.
So there! :P :P ;D ;D :-*

Ah come on, Greek Lady - give us a bit of slack.... you had fun with it as well!

OMG!!! you know, it sounded so cold (especially from BB), and since i couldn't even see her avatar yesterday, i had this feeling she dropped into a major hair depression!!

and no, i really wanted that those sticks!!! they are gorgeous and now my hair is almost black, they will fit perfectly.

and that's why i thought it was really real ;)

true bb, true  :D :D
that's why we didn't send the both of you to scrub your hands and face clean AND wash behind the ears! ;D ;D ;D

I kinda thought it might be a joke-but then I wasn't sure- I couldn't believe BB and Rapunzel would actually believe they were too old for long hair!  Maybe tired and wanted a change-but not too old.

NEVER!  :D
