Not gonna say that my hiar is long and all, but it is a little longer than APL.
As a child, I always waned longer hair. I really wanted long hair. Hair that brushed my collar or longer. But mine never did.
Since going natural, I have the hair that I always wanted. Healthy, thick and past my collar.
I wear twists all the time, 'cause that's what I like. I am just starting to get into the habit of styling my hair in other ways. I have flat twists in the front and 2s twists in the back. All pinned up in a nice updo. For me that is major.
Usually I wear my twists for 4 weeks and they draw up and look so short, and people don't realize how long my hair actually is.
I do have pictures in my fotki from Easter 2006 when I press my hair out.
I cannot compare to many of the women on this board. THey have lush, pretty thick long, beautiful hair. I get by with mine. And it works for me. I get compliments on it sometimes. I get comments, too. But I don't listen to either, b/c it's how I like it.
And dh (and dds) like it too. He thinks its sexy.
