Long Hair Rocks because....

[Nayeli]

Just wanted to do a fun thread to remind us why we're growing. Just say what comes to mind:

Long hair rocks because:

you can fling it around
you can do messy up-do's
you can pull it out of your scarf and throw it over your coat

YOUR TURN!

[Irresistible]

Cause I can keep it one style for long periods and be lazy

[FluffyRed]

It's easier (can go into a bun)

It can detract from facial flaws/enhance good features when worn out

[Nayeli]

^^^ Ditto!!! It's like another make-up tool lol

[dachsies_rule!]

It's so versatile...you can wear it in so many styles!

[BlackMasterPiece]

I can clip it up at night like 1,2,3!

I can do sooooo many different things with it.

Ppl are shocked that a fully black girl can do it

Because theres no better feeling then your hair at or near the middle of your back.

I love stylin and profilin feeling the wind blow thru my silky or coily hair

But the best reason is because I can serve as a walking talking example of the potential of tightly coily type 4 hair, thats the part that makes me happy.

[AsianAfricanPrincess]

It totally puts even more emphasis on the eyes! (meaning mine

[bamachic08]

bc it complements me better

[BSweet]

it complements my round cheeks better..

i can do more styles..

i can prove the nay sayers wrong..

[melissa-bee]

I will be able to cover my boobs with it.

[MagnoliaBelle]

It makes me beautiful!!

Yay! How fun! Long hair rocks my universe because:

I love the way it feels when it blows in the wind
I love the way it feels when it brushes against my shoulders
Growing long hair gives me something to do!
Long hair is a measurable determination of how well I'm taking care of my hair
For me, long hair is the ultimate accessory and spices up any outfit
Because I remember how, as a child, I used to pretend I had long hair by wearing towels on my head *tee-hee * and I can't wait when I can swing my OWN hair around
I want to prove all the nay-sayers/those who don't think black girls can have pretty hair wrong.

That's all I can think of for right now. Overall, long hair is boss.

Cuz you can put it into a sexy ponytail for the club.
You can wear braid outs anytime you want.
You can walk and the feel your hair swinging on your back.
You can walk through the mall make everyone jealous, and make the guys fall in love with your hair(My friend goes through this already, she turns heads)
Because in my opinion long is easier......that's why long hair rocks.....

Long hair rocks because:

* It would make me feel more feminine
* I would have people longing to see my hair and asking loads of questions bout my hair, just by seeing the shape of it under my headscarf
* The Hubby loves it and can't wait till i reach my BSL and beyond goal

[hillytmj]

Long hair rocks because:
*Your can wear a beautiful ponytail.
*You have multiple styling options that don't require wearing weaves.
*It's very feminine and desired by most women and men.
*It's fun to take care of.
*It's always gratifying to see how one's patience and consistency to healthy hair care practices can pay off.

[Elle97]

Because...

It feels so feminine.
It makes me feel beautiful-er
It completes looks.
I've never had long-ish hair (it's never hung past a few inches above APL)
I want to fling it around.
I want to put it in one of those cute twistie buns (and the bun be big).
I like the way it feels on my back.
It's warm in the winter!
I want others to know they can grow long hair too!

and the following...I must admit...must be the high schooler in me :

You can walk through the mall make everyone jealous, and make the guys fall in love with your hair

LOL

[Chaosbutterfly]

Long hair rocks because not many black women have it, and I can't even lie..it's gonna feel good to stand out.

ETA: It can be used as a weapon in emergencies.
