Thread: I did it!

  1. #1

    Default I did it!

    Happy New Year to me. I think I finally have an actual ponytail. Not a few stubbly bits gathered into an elastic band.



    And for the very first time in my life I managed a braid. It's very sloppy but it's my first one. And it will improve with practice.

    I was so inspired by your courageous attempt, that I did a French braid, for the first time! Congratulations to you!

    Do you have a goal length in mind?

    Yeah, you'll get there, you're happily on your way.

    It's awesome to reach a milestone, isn't it?

    No specific goal length, no. I've never had long hair before so this is entirely new to me.

    I want a ponytail. Done, but I want all the hair in it, including the front, which requires a little more length than this.

    I want a proper braid. Which means I'm going to have to practice, and additional length will be quite helpful.

    A French twist was actually one of my original goals. And while not yet there, that's coming...probably this year. No trim 2018 is underway.
