Man, What a PAIN! I had to cut an inch off to get the majority of it off, but I Still have some bad ones. It’s the curse of curly hair. I wish people could see how long it really is. Right now it hits my shoulders, but if you pull out the curls it is probably a little more than a third down my back. I’m hoping the longer it gets, the more it will weigh, and the curls will de-intensify. Might as well give it a try!
