grow my hair to my butt

It drives me nuts after a certain length. After making several donations to Locks of Love and having my hair past my elbows down to my waist, I don’t think I need to grow my hair to my bum anymore. It’s not worth it to me.

I cut it again for Locks of Love. But it was past my elbows again and to the top of my waistband, if not a little longer. I have yet to be able to sit on my hair. I think I want to abandon this goal because it’s just not worth it really.

I switched shampoos today since the Pantene Smooth and Sleek ran out. It made all the difference in the world. My hair is squeaky clean tonight because I went back to my favorite, Bain de Terre Daily Meadow shampoo. (‘Quotidien Champu’ in Francais, which makes me laugh. Quotidien shampoo!)

I think if my hair stops being so dried out, I might be able to handle it for an extra month. Now that March 1st is less than a month away, I just might wait to cut it and see if I can’t get it a tad longer. I waffle because there are days when I love it, and days when I hate it this long.

It’s down to my waist. It’s lovely. Really, but I’m sick of it. 2 more months to go and March 1st, it’s gone!

What I’ve also noticed is that my vacuum has a lot of hair around the brush rollers. I had to hack off massive amounts of hair when I realized what that burning smell was when I ran it. Then I realized that it’s probably all over the wheels of my desk chair.

Yes, it was rather embarrassing this weekend to visit my friend’s new home furnishing store in Baltimore, lay down on the nice cream colored display mattress and then leave hair all over it for the nice shop staff to clean up.

Yes, I cannot wait to cut this stuff off!

March 1st. Either way. I’m going to cut my hair. My sister will probably cut hers then as well. I’m going to try and convince her to give her hair to Locks of Love because that’s what I’m going to do.

I’m going to flag this as not worth doing. It really hasn’t been worth it. I’m vain and all, but it isn’t really worth the extra expensive of shampoo, conditioner, styling products I’ve never had to use before, and all that icky hair all over my apartment and clogging the drain.

I am thinking of giving up on this goal. I really didn’t want to do it. It’s only because a lot of people have asked if I’ve done it that I thought I could discipline myself into completing it.

Frankly, now that I’m working in a corporate HQ where a neat and polished look is appropriate, I feel like my hair is not sleek and prim. I feel like it’s a wild mess. I know it’s dried out because I was using silicone based hair stuff. Now it’s suffering. I’d like to cut it and have it be managable and healthy. Plus all my friends come over and note that there hair all over the bathroom floor.

Can I make it to Christmas without a cut?

After dyeing my hair blue, I realized how disgusting my ends are. They are really dry. I’m tempted to hack off 2” to clean it all up, but that would be another 2 months of delay. MUST…FIGHT…URGE…

It’s grazing the top of my waistband now. Just a few months more…

It’s down to my waist. If I can make it through this summer, I’ll be finished this goal around February.
