Well knock me over with a feather! I was out having a drink last night with my friend when this woman came up and said " I hope you don't think im weird or anything but just wanted to say ive never seen hair so long before, its gorgeous how long did it take you to grow it that long?" I thanked her and told her I was coming up to 5 years, which shocked her she thought it had took twice as long!


Thought id share this with you all, it put a huge smile on my face, i am only at waist which is relatively short but it made my day!:D

That's a nice compliment! It's always nice when people are appreciative of long hair.

Congrats Jojo. That's a nice compliment. It feels so good when all the effort we put into our hair is appreciated by a stranger.

:cheese:

Aww that was nice of her. I always try and give compliments to strangers when I find something that's looks nice on them or what not. I know how it brightens my day when I get a random compliment from someone I don't know and I want to do the same for other people too!

Getting complements from strangers are great indicators to let you know that you're doing something right with your hair as far as progression wise ;)! Keep it up! :thumbsup::thumbsup: <- I just gave you a 2 thumbs up, so now you have another complement :)

That is just wonderful! And deserved. Your hair is gorgeous.

I had a coworker tell me that my hair was so pretty down. Because it is up or in a braid every day she did not know how long it really is. LOL.
