What a handsome couple you two make! :) Beautiful hair,Barb!

Thank you :)

I am an internet hog so Barb is not on that much but I will let her know you like her hair ;)

Jerry

Barb's hair has grown quite a bit since the last picture I saw of it.  My congrats to her!  Are you practicing your braiding on her hair yet?

Um, I plead the 5th ::)


Yes, her hair has grown but I think she is at that stage where it stops growing for a while.


Jerry

LOL!  Shame on you, Jerry!  >:(  As a lover of long hair, you have a duty to learning and practicing hair braiding!   ;D

It's on my list of things to do later (a honey do list ::)).

Jerry

Here is a very recent picture of Barb's hair.

As you can see, she got her glasses which she has been wearing for about a week now.

Also, the shine is from the flash of the digital camera

And here is another taken from the back.

Whoa, shiney! Barb's hair looks like it's being well cared for! :)

Thank you ;)

She takes pretty good care of it but probably not as good as some of the ladies here 8-)

Jerry

Beautiful hair!  Tell her to keep taking good care of it.   I love the color.

Thank you Robin 8-)

I am going to take some more pictures today and take some outdoors so that the flash will not make her hair look so shiny.

Jerry

Barb's hair looks fantastic.  Does she always wear it down?

The only time she has it up is when she is working because she works in food service so she puts her hair under her hat at work.

Otherwise, it is always down.

Nice.  I'm very jealous of your wife's hair, Jerry!!

Jealous of the length, color, style or all the above?

As far as I know, she is happy with her long hair  ::)

Jerry

Of the length.  I like my color and texture.   :D

You can't tell by the picture but her hair is actually tailbone length which is the longest she has had it so far 8-)

After making the mistake of going to great clips and getting seven inches cut off, it has taken about six or seven years for it to grow that long.

So with time and lots of patience most ladies can have long hair 8-)

Jerry

Your wife's hair is looking great!  She is lucky that she can wear it down most of the time.

She said she would like thigh length and if it does get that long she would probably get it trimmed more often but that is probably a ways down the road.

What length is the point where long hair should be kept up or can be kept down most of the time or does it just depend on the  lady and/or the hair?

Jerry

The type of hair you have can determine how easy it is to leave it down as it gets longer.  My hair is very fine and it tangles very easily.  Hair that is thicker is usually less prone to tangles.  

I think it depends. After I hit BSL I started wearing more contained styles. For me, it was easier to deal with longer hair that way since it didn't get as tangled or damaged from being caught in bag straps, doors, etc. Unless I'm at home, my hair is either in a braid or bun.
