Long hair ladies, can I live vicariously through you?

Nakia that story is hilarious :lachen:. I've never had hair dreams like that. Wish I could be a guest at the party to see how it all goes down :grin:.

:bump: I refuse to let this thread die! DH took pics of my yummy braidout but he got distracted watching Big Love and didn't upload them yet. Will post them tonight.

Nakia, that pool party sounds like the scene for a catfight! Probably she'll just act like she didn't notice your hair is :gorgeous: though. Hair? Huh? What hair? :rolleyes:
 
When I bun, I have to wrap the length around itself a few times to get it all up there. So when I remove my stick or fork, I have to give my head a little shake to get it all out of the bun position. Not an Herbal Essences commercial type shake, but just a little one to get the hair falling. Anyway, that feels really really nice on my back :)
 
A week ago, my bff asked me to send him pics of me in some fake glasses I said I bought from Claire's. He text back verbatim, "IS THAT YOUR HAIR!?!? It's so long and full!" It didn't occur to me that he hadnt seen my hair straight in 6 months...

*wipes single tear*

I'd kill her is she ruined my stepson's party like that. Knowing her she will act like she doesn't notice my hair & then she'll be asking her son if it's a weave. :rolleyes:
 
I have a BAA dream. It's summer time, I have on a tight fitting dress, booty poked out right, curvy small waistline, and some killer heels with accessories to match. My hair is an old chunky braidout and I have a beautiful flower in my hair to the side. I'm headed to a Maxwell concert in Baltimore OR D.C. I'd love to go to one in D.C. oooh the sexy men there.

Anyways I would be FIERCE, and wouldn't nobody tell me nothing. I'd steal the show with my BAA, of course in D.C. there would also be sooo many beautiful naturals around male and female. I'd have so much fun dancing the night away while my man serenades to me on stage. I hope to do this, this summer fall time. Whenever Maxwell tours again.

You go girl, with your man serenading. :grin:

More stories!
 
Yesterday was my birthday and my sister invited me to Legal Seafood's in the financial district (she's Sandunga on LHCF). My hair was straightened, but the curls were not flatironed which causes a cascading effect at the ends. It was so pretty even I couldn't stand myself LMAO Anyway I put on a cute hat and headed down to the restaurant to meet her. She didn't recognize me at first and told me that she couldn't believe how pretty and long my hair looked. We laughed for a good 2 minutes straight when she said "If you weren't my sister I would've thought you had on a nice weave" ahahaha

I swore to God my hair was the bizness yesterday. God punished me though. As I washed my daughter's hair that night the steam messed up my herr and I ended up with a 16 inch afro.

I can't wait until I can do this. The day that I don't need to use the bun form to get a nice full bun will be great. Like a few others, I also wish that I could use my hair as a covering.

This thread is addictive. I need to stay out of it. My hair can't grow fast enough for what I want and I am probably being a little unrealistic.

Dang! I was hoping for some pics!:ohwell:
 
I remember being at the salon last week to get a relaxer. It was a Saturday, and due to my stylist over-booking her clients as usual, it was pretty packed. My hair was 22 wks post and I looked like I had a lion mane, lol! It was a big tangled mess.

A couple of them commented on how much hair I had, but most of them kept looking with that disgusted look on their faces. Once my hair was texlaxed and detangled I could feel the stares as I sat in my stylist's chair.

On this particular Saturday, the ladies heard me mention to another that I was running late for my aunt's funeral (my stylist's fault). At this point, I needed a dryer but all were occupied. I'd like to mention that two were occupied by short haired (thin NL) ladies who'd been under the dryer FOREVER. My stylists said, "Ya'll should be done." So I'm standing there hoping that someone would just move to a regular seat. One poked her head out and said, "You can have this one for a fee!" Another chick replied, "Girl, you crazy!" Then they high fived each other :rolleyes:.

I ended up eventually having to get under a dryer that was practically useless. My intentions were to get it flatironed and dusted. I ended up going to the funeral with a damp head. To my surprise, I ended up getting plenty of compliments on my big, beautiful, healthy head of hair.

Meanwhile, they got a lil' temporary satisfaction at my expense. I must admit that my satisfaction was realizing that the "joke" was on them...sitting there with about 36 strands of overprocessed, uneven, severely damaged, brittle hair:lachen:

Wow, karma is a mutha:censored:. They have coming to them exactly what they deserve. I mean seriously long hair/short hair/no hair...to not have compassion for someone going to a funeral ain't nothing but the "debil" showing out.

What is it about beautiful hair that brings out such ugliness. I remember when I use to go to the salon. I use to look at the women who had long hair in awe. Not nastiness. It's so sad and yet funny how most times it be the most tore up head women acting like that. :lachen:

Yep, meanwhile, they're eyeballin' my products as I pull them out of my bag to see what I'm using to get my results (I always bring my own products for her to use... Ojon). They asked her, "Why don't you use what she has in our hair?" She replied, "If I used these products, I would have to charge ya'll too much." They didn't say a word.

So true. As a tenth grader, I transferred to a predominantly black school from a predominantly white one. I got a lot of attention as the new girl with the long pretty hair, especially from the popular atheletes. The chicken heads would always make the meanest comments when I walked through the hallways. I was very quiet and kept to myself because I didn't know anyone.

One of the girls with hair about an inch long attacked me in the locker room during gym class. When I got her down on the ground beating the mess out of her, the first thing she did was pull my hair toward her and bit me in the face. After she was handled, I never had any real problems during highschool. Sad it had to take that though.
