    Default everyone tells me I have long hair, figured I belong here

    Hi all,
    I've been lurking for a while, but I thought I'd introduce myself. When I was young, I had some of the longest hair of my classmates. I think my first haircut didn't happen until I was about 6. Despite that, and all the damage I've done to it in the years since, I've always admired my long haired friends and relatives. And boy, do I have a lot of those. See, I'm the granddaughter of an ex-Amish woman, so all the female relatives on that side have insanely long hair. I'm also a history nerd, so the ability to do historical hairstyles has always appealed to me. I've been growing my hair out for a few years now, trying for tbl.
    Anyway, thanks for letting me ramble on, I look forward to learning from you all.

    I look foward to your sharing knowledge of historical hairstyles for long hair. I tend to get my updo ideas from historical styles rather than the modern single bun variations. Welcome!

    Welcome! You should check out Janet Stephens YouTube channel. She has some great historical tutorials.

    Entangled: thanks for that, I just checked her stuff out. It looks a little outside of my historical comfort zone, but I may give some of them a try. Arum: Yeah, I'm about as history nerd as you can get, I used to do renaissance fairs, and met hubby through the SCA. Lapushka: Thank you!
