Greetings! New gal here!
Feb 19^th, 2005 at 8:22pm

Hi! I checked out this website last night and knew I had to join! Lately I have been tempted to cut my hair, but no more since finding this site.

Here's the low-down on my hair:

It is--
-- Fine (Feels like silk)
-- Normal thickness (Ponytail circumference is just shy of 3")
-- Dark blonde to light brown, depending on light
-- Stick Straight
-- Very prone to tangling, especially when wet
-- Prone to breakage - very fragile
-- 22" long from root to tip on back of head
-- 3.5" past the bottom of bra line
-- Goal is waist-length

From looking at the posts, I'd say my hair sounds the most like UP_Lisa's.

Just want to say I'm so glad there are others out there who love long hair. I have been discouraged by many from having long hair, because my hair is so fine and straight. I am thrilled that there are ladies here who have fine hair, yet it looks lovely long. (Bikerbraid comes to mind.) Thank you all for being here!

Reply #6 - Feb 21^st, 2005 at 12:29pm hello & welcome i have rather straight and fine hair too. there's a very easy trick for creating more volume (and less tangles): sleep with a braid! even if you would brush out the waves, the hair hangs differently, looks thicker (more air between the strands).
