    My hair is not exactly long yet, but they do find it 'strange' that I care so much about the length. I don't think they really care wether or not I cut it though.

    In general my family hates my long hair and they take every opportunity to tell me so.

    "When you gonna cut all that hair off?"
    "I hate that long hair."
    "I didn't recognize you. Your hair got so ...long...."
    "But you looked so pretty with short hair."

    I had slight beyond waist length hair in high school and thanks to completeignorance and tremendous amounts of stress my hair fell out in wads. I had a bald spot at the base of my neck where new hair was growing but it looked horrible. So much so that a classmate offered $100 for anyone to cut my hair.

    So my Mom and Mamaw tricked me into a beauty salon where they cut it all off. ALL OFF. I was left a cap of dark curls less than an inch long. I cried, oh how I cried. After it was said and done with I found that I did in fact like the short hair. Mostly because I adore curls and now I had dozens to play with. But the hassle of constantly washing and maintaining it was a nightmare. But fortunately I was finally an adult in college far away from my family. And then started the hated growing out process. I despise every length between pixie and waist.
    My beloved curls turn into an afro at 4-5 inches btw.

    Now I'm happily at THO and growing. Apparently I have a great great grand mother whose hair swept the ground so I have high hopes for my terminal length. And thank fully I live very faraway from my family but
    everytime I go home "What's wrong with you why you want hair so long like that." "It must be so much trouble."

    Not as much as short hair was!

    Oddly even.my mom who has hip length hair hates my long hair.

    Fortunately my DH likes it and looks forward to our daughters having it as well and as soon as he gets a job that doesn't require above the collar hair he's going to grow his out too. He's always wanted to braid it he says. Ah I love that man.

    DBF#1's family are all longhairs, but as far as they are concerned I already have long hair, and they're puzzled as to why I'd want it to get any longer.

    I haven't spoken to my father about it at all. My mum is shockingly supportive considering how she used to nag me to get it cut when I was younger, as she used to have hip length hair, but I think she'll switch to being weirded out when I grow it longer than that. She doesn't like the colour, either.

    Both DBFs love it.

    Can I have waist length hair for Christmas?

    My mother likes it just not all the things I do to keep it healthy.
    My little sisters love it.
    My friends love it.
    My dad loves it.

    They know it's "me". They know it is part and parcel.

    My mother sometimes suggests I cut it, I just say no. The others don’t really care.

    Actually, most of the time they think nothing because it's always up in a bun. And then they forget how long it is, so when it comes down, they're surprised every time Most of them don't waste their time trying to tell me to cut it anymore.

    Some of my family member find my hair strange, but other family members love it. My immediate relative says "Maybe you should cut your hair because it is so long" while another extended relative says "You should grow your hair to knee length and beyond".
    I'm taking life one hair milestone at a time. I'm just letting my hair grow at it’s own speed.
