Lately I'm really feeling JW Waterhouse, and also some pretty nerdy fantasy illustrations by people like Jessica Galbreth, I want to look a bit like the kind of lady I would have worshipped as a little girl.

I don't collect them, and I don't have a goal length, but I do periodically Google "long hair" etc, just for kicks.

I've always adored the gorgeous locks of Empress Elisabeth of Austria. Alas, I don't have that thickness any more and frankly knee length hair is stretching it a bit for me (even though I love the idea). Now if I had a hairdresser as talented as Elisabeth's was, maybe I'd feel differently!

I have one random picture saved. I keep forgetting my pinterest password lol. So Nope, I don't have a picture collection.

No, I don't. I don't even have hair idols, actually.

Sure, I admire nice, long hair when I see it, though I never have some set of pictures I refer to whenever I think about hair or the like.

I am lucky enough to have reached my goal length and then some, so no.

I enjoy looking at long hair, but I don't collect photos of it. I have no "hair idols" or anything like that, either. Honestly I love my own hair quite a bit and do not feel the need to idolize anyone else's. ;) Can I just idolize my own? :disco:
I do, however, have a pinterest board full of updos and other hair styles. I do not feel comfortable sharing it here on this public part of the forum because it is my personal account with my real name attached to it.

This! I love seeing other people who have long, beautiful hair, but at the end of the day, I want my hair, with my texture and my color and on me, to be long and beautiful and I want to look in the mirror and admire that (don't get me wrong, I love my hair as is, just can't wait for it to be longer :D )

I have a hair style board on Pinterest but it's almost all buns, braids, and ponytails. It's not so much about inspiring myself to grow longer.

I sometimes google very long hair. And will sometimes save a pic to show someone then delete it shortly after. Im all lame like "this is what I want to have" lately i've been loving classic length if cut to my liking.

I collect pictures of really long hair on pinterest. I don't have a goal length anymore, so they are varying lengths. If they appeal to me, I pin them here (http://www.pinterest.com/3grrrls/amazing-hair/)

I don't think I obsess very much over other people's hair. To me, that's just odd and a little creepy. I do admire the hair here, but that's more because we know other LHC members from posting, it's not just blind admiration.

Using pinterest too here (http://www.pinterest.com/aeltt/im-no-fetichist-but-i-like-long-hair/). I began doing it because I was trying to find what haircut I should get, like a year ago.
Still trying to figure it out.

Edit : TheGoddess : i love yours, so cute. I think I'll be repining lot of your pictures haha

I too relate more to the story/process than the pictures in isolation. I looove progress pics, though.

I collect different lengths and have folders of each length .. Meaning I have 1 for current length, 1 for waist and 1 for tailbone so every time I reach a major milestone I delete a folder

Do pictures of anime characters with the length I want count? Because if so, yes. Yes I do.

I save pictures of anyone who has classic length and beyond (mostly from LHC). Is that creepy? I think it sounds a lot worse than it is. XD

I don't collect photos but there really are some great ones listed in this thread! They're great for inspiration. I do occasionally search google for long hair photos but not often. The first time I saw knee length hair was when I googled "extra long hair" and I think my jaw hit the floor!

No, I find it a bit creepy to collect pictures of strangers. I like my own hair and I admire the pictures posted on LHC, especially the extreme lengths, because the men and women here actually have long hair. The pictures of long and/or thick hair found on sites such as pinterest, are usually just extensions and wigs. Can't say that I'm particularly impressed or inspired by that :shrug:

If i'm looking for an inspiration, i usually just Google long hair or walk around in the city and watch long haired ladies and (more rarely) gents pass me by. We have a trend of APL-TBL lenght now so i see lots of pretty long hair.

I admire long beautiful hair when I see it, but I rarely come across hair pictures that are personally inspiring to me. I'd like to see hair like mine at long lengths, but no one else seems to grow out their curly hair, or at least do it and post pictures. :shrug:

Just one inspiration picture... A photo of myself, with my hair in a ponytail under stage lights and practically glowing, from the last time I had long hair... Maybe it's a bit selfish, but it is what motivates me.

I have that EXACT same problem!! Figures! I am about a 3b, but honestly, I LOVE seeing YOUR photos, because as you have said, curly long hairs are so very very rare! I suppose us curly haired people need to stick together and just inspire each other :D

I don't usually collect them but I definitely look at them and dream..... my pinterist is full of searches like "super long hair" or classic length hair" lol. Sometimes I think I'm obsessed.
