love my hair

i can not describe the extreeme hatred i have for my hair. while i do my best to take good care of it, it does not do its best to take care of me. kinky, curly, frizzy, dramatic, a big pain. it takes hours for me to do anything nice to it, so i always end up just pulling it back into a messy bun kind of thing. I saw an entry about someone who was surprised at how long thier hair had gotten. i straightened my hair new years eve and everyone was surprised at how long it was, even i was! i have been growing it out for almost 4 years now since high school when i cut it off close to 4 or 5 inches to get rid of the bleached areas on the tips. at that time it was barely above my shoulders, and now its just about to my nipples when curly and probably below my breast line and to my mid back when straightened. I just hope to one day find a style that i love my hair..a color that i truly appreciate and more importantly, a mind set that when i look in the mirror i can say i look really great!
