It all started on April Fools Day 2010.
I was studying abroad in Argentina and decided to play a trick on my friends back home - look! I cut my hair!

But then, after photoshopping my hair for hours, I decided to google other people with long hair and voila, LHC was discovered!
So here are the traditional "progress pics" though not much has change length-wise in 2 years (especially since I cut it a few times in there), I think my hair is healthier and definitely shinier.
(I'm working on thickening my ends/treating them better, but it'll take a couple years for the thickness of my hair to work its way down to the tips in the best of cases, and even then I doubt it will thicken much. I think I'm pretty close to terminal, which is convenient, since I never planned on having hair longer than my knees anyway, but doesn't do much for thick ends. So I try to just treat the ends nicely and see how far we can go.)
I didn't control for texture - the first one is just after a shower drying, the second is totally dry, the third is oiled.

And here are the (more interesting, IMO) pics of some interesting things I've done with my hair this year:

(the last one was at the Quidditch World Cup - it's an M for Middlebury, and yes, my school won the championship :D )
Ops. maxed out pictures. Maybe I'll put more up later...
