Hello, LHC'ers!

I know I've been MIA for awhile (so long, in fact, that most of you probably don't have a clue who I am...:)

Anyway.....still growing - am creeping past waist now. Still coloring (Robert Craigs, 50/50 brown/red). Still micro-trimming every three months (basically just evening up the blunt hemline, nothing more).

I am noticing that my hair is tangling more easily at this length, even when it's up for hours - how wierd is that? I tried clarifying, but it didn't seem to help, so maybe it's just the reality of my hair at this length.

S/C'ing 2 times a week....using a variety of things, but mostly good old Suave. I've reduced the amount of conditioner I'm using, which oddly seems to help the condition of my hair. Go figure.

Anyway, wanted to give a shout out and maybe reconnect with this community - I talk about you guys and the "hairboard" all the time.....so guess I'd better make the effort to keep up, eh?

Welcome back from your hiatus. I'm somewhat a newbie so I'm happy to make your acquaintance (and I read your nice blog too).

Stay around - it's nice to have long hair advice from folks who have been growing their hair for awhile.

:smile:

Hi, Saldana. I've done it, too — sometimes by force when my computer acted up, sometimes just because I needed some time off from the computer in general. Welcome back!

Hi. I'm still here all the time; isn't that sad? Nice to see you drop in.

Yes, I do remember you! Welcome back Saldana :waving: I just came back after being gone for over a year. Congrats on your hair! I'm going to check your blog to see how you did it as I'm the same length I was two years ago!

P.S. I like your signature quote, and I like your avatar!
