In Reply to: Hair length and age input appreciated sm - No kid
I have had long hair my entire life...and will probably keep it that way for many, many years to come. I used to be a very blond when I was young, but the older I get the darker it gets....so I do a nice color on it to keep it blond. I have a 13y/o daughter and we are looking more like sisters than mother/daughter..but I am not trying for that at all. I jut love my hair and dont care who else does or does not.

I have long, thick hair. I found over the years that I get what I pay for. So now I pay around 55-60

Holy smokes, I have thick, long brown hair
$50.00 for cut and color and my hairdresser does a wonderful job.
I have long, thick, curly hair and so does my daughter...we use Cowboy Magic..sm
You can find it where horse products are found!! It can be used on horse manes or on human hair. I believe they have a website to, but I have always bought it at our local TSC store. This stuff is awesome!!! It can be used on wet or dry hair. You put about a quarter size amount in the palm of your hand and then rub it through your hair. I use a bit more on my daughter, as she is much more tangled than I get. Her hair always looks so shiney and healthy.. and smells great too!! Give this a try, it should help greatly!
Long hair....
I am 35 years old and have very long curly hair. My mother-in-law thinks I am going to have to cut it soon. (This is coming from the lady who goes to the hairdresser and asks for the Moe!) She says people over 40 look silly with long hair. I think she is nuts. I will keep my hair no matter what my age. Do what you want and don't let a few old hags make you feel bad! 
I used it a million yrs ago when I had very long hair. It

I hate that my hair is long
I'm 45 and my hair has gotten very long, down past my shoulder blades. I've been growing it for two years for Locks of Love. I've always wanted to donate to Locks of Love, but I've had my hair no longer than shoulder length for over 20 years. Since they want undyed hair, I know that time is running out for me! At 45, I'm beginning to find gray hairs now and then. Yes, I know that's great to not have had gray hair until now! I think that if I can hold off until Christmas or so, it will be long enough to cut and donate. But, I do not like having it long in the heat. It's very thick, so it takes forever to dry, and well, at my age, long, straight hanging hair on a pudgy woman with wrinkles just looks silly. :)
I will be 46 next week and have very long hair...sm
I am fat and don't think I look silly with long hair. I also color it red. I did the donating thing 3 years ago and cut my hair short and really missed my long hair, started growing it out within a month after donating it. I live in Texas, so it gets hot, but when it is too hot to keep the hair down I use clips or ponytail holders, no biggy. I do need to get a trim though, as I figured out the other day I have not cut my hair since last December, so it really could use some trimming up. I will probably keep my hair long until I have a reason not to, but long hair is definitely not for everyone, as it can be quite the hassle at times. 
love my long hair
I'm approaching 50 and my hair is waist length. Like Patti, I don't look or act my age and people are surprised when they learn my age.
I will, however, never forget being in New Orleans and sitting at a bar next to a man who was a hair stylist who told me I was too old to wear my hair that long. He thought I should cut it to just at my shoulders, and honestly, it probably looks better that way...BUT, I love my long hair, and he was an admitted "tri-sexual" (when I asked what that was, he said he would try anything!!!) lol!
I've always kept my hair long..sm
You can do some very chic styling with french braids, cingons, up-dos, french twists when you need to.
Since it grows so quickly, I've been able to donate to locks of love a coupla times...Right now after a shearing it's just below my shoulder blades....
All of us have bad hair days, but some folks have no hair days. Please consider donation if you are so inclined.  Cat
Since your hair isn't really long, 60 is ridiculous. I stopped sm
paying my hairdresser because I didn't like paying 45 and my hair is pretty long and I like to keep it layered and styled and colored right, too. There are way too many good stylists out there who charge way less, even in the big cities, and I wouldn't waste my time there. Move on. They are ripping people off.
I'm all about stylists and people in the service industry making a living, but 50.00 for the half would even be better than that.
I don't have a problem with long hair on boys
but I do have a problem with not keeping it nice. There are a lot of men and boys with long hair that looks good. His is all stringy and icky looking. My son has a longer hair style and thinking about going longer with it but we have had the talk about still looking nice and having some sort of style to it. The minute he doesn't, it goes. Kinda like wearing dirty clothes out of the laundry basket. Sure every kid wants to do it and you have to piok your battles but mine isn't going to walk out of the house looking like no one cares enough to make sure he is a clean, well taken care of, and well fed boy.
Jen and that blond who was an enemy
Can't remember her name but her voice just gets to me! I wish Jen could go this week.
blond highlights at home
My daughter who is blond is going to a wedding and wants her hair highlights around her face "touched up". I offered to do it to save her spending big bucks at the salon. Has anyone done this themselves? I'm going to Sally's later to get the products. Any tips? This is not for whole head color, just blond highlights around the face. Thanks.
I thought Will and the blond girl voted off last were the

Thick socks. I have the same problem.
thick. Roses or daisies?

Put on some thick skin....my gosh,
everyone is so touchy here lately....my opinion is allowed and it does not have to agree with yours! We still can have our own opinions in this country, can't we?
Thick family bond or not, - sm
My child would be yanked out of that very strange and potentially harmful situation so fast it would make your head spin! Children certainly do not need to spend their time worrying about death and being subjected to this weirdness. If it costs your marriage to get your son into a better situation (i.e., camp like someone suggested) then it was not much of a marriage to begin with. Your first obligation is to your child.
Buy one of those thick doormats. My cats love SM
to put their claws in that. It is an outdoor mat, but we have it inside. You have to give your cats something they like more than furniture. If you have anything wicker, put that on floor level for them.
You could go and have vet cut the claws some, but they grow back fast.
make it thick - sounds good

Dancing Thick crust or thin

Especially when the person you are taking to is about as thick as a sapling. - sm
I have started my own little dieting regimen and it's working so far.
Just eating healthier and being a lot more careful about what goes in my mouth. I'm also trying to add a little more activity every day. I'm pretty sedentary and even just adding a five minute walk around the yard is enough to get my blood moving for now.
I have lost 17.5-pounds so far and going for another 35-pounds by the end of summer.
Good luck to you.
Mine has some slight curl but not real thick. nm

I was referring to my own hair, people hair. nm

I am in a biracial marriage, not thick skinned, live in the deep south, have
a mixed daughter who is 32 years old and she told me going to school she had the best of both worlds. Live in a very nice mixed neighborhood, just don’t know where this person lives who has to be thick skinned. Has never happened to me.
Can't believe he wasn't even in the bottom three! nm

I always comb from the bottom up
Use a wide tooth comb. When hair is wet, start from the bottom and comb up a little at a time. Tangles seemed to "slide" out better going bottom to top., and it keeps you from ending up with a big knot at the bottom.
bottom line
The bottom line is the rules. We all have rules. We all have choices. There are consequences to our choices. That is life. Whether or not you agree to the rules and/or the consequenes is irrelevant.
If one does not like the idea of a teacher getting his/her jollies out of paddling a female student, then one must keep that in mind when choosing to break a rule.
There were 2 choices of punishment here and, one of which was not corporal, but IMO missing class would hurt your daughter more in the long run. I do think she made the right choice and I also think it was wise to tell her that next time she'll have to miss class.
It's so easy as parents to set rules and consequences and not follow through with the consequences, but in an environment with hundreds and sometimes thousands of students, teachers/administrators must follow through or there would be no education.
I'm not saying the punishment fits the crime here, but after the fact is too late.
It's obvious that you completely understand the above because you are not arguing the unfairness of the punishment, but anxiety over your child. Any good parent would feel that way.
I'm just posting this in response to the posts that argue against corporal punishment. I don't agree with it either just for the record. There are laws I don't agree with but guess what? In the real world, I break a law I don't agree with and I get punished.
I hope you slept well and all went well today (Monday). Please post a followup.
Bottom eye liner sm
Gosh, I am waay up there but have absolutely no bottom eyelashes, I put a thin brown liner on or everyone tells me I look sick or awful, and I also think I look really bad. Please tell me a thin brown line is okay on the bottom lid. I know they glue eyelashes on, but want no one near my eyes. Anyone else bottom lash bald?? As for the younger kids, as long as they don't look like a racoon, less is more and keep it light, it's okay but preteen, is questionable. Even my 5+ year old puts a little blush on and lip gloss to play and then we make her wipe it almost all off before she leaves the house. They just want to fit in. So do I!! Help!
cashews... top or bottom?

why are big bras on the bottom and
the cute little AA's on top. If I reach for the ones on the bottom, I may just keep going over, unable to stop myself!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
We will be leaving the space between our pillows where Fred slept each night empty in his honor. I truly appreciate the love and support you all have shown. Only those who have walked in our shoes can understand the depth of the love and the enormous loss we feel.
I think the bottom 3 tonight will be
Lil, Matt, and Allison. Possibly Kris. I think Matt's going home, simply because he's not as memorable as some of the others even though I really like him.
Does it clean the bottom of the shower/tub also?

I agree with you - the bottom 4 now are all GREAT
That is still a high $ pole - even at the bottom! nm

I was glad Adam was in the bottom two.
He's getting so monotonous. I would have preferred Allison go before Matt though. And what about Kris?! He should've gone before Matt or Allison. Guess the young girls are voting enough for him to keep him around. Either way, at this point, as long as Danny stays, I'm happy :)
I wonder how much damage is being done by the groups like 'vote for the worst' and DJs who tell them to do that, etc... Wish they'd let it play out without interference.
Depends if it is long with pregnant pause um no. If it is long and juicy like an op YEP! Short ones

don't believe they were the bottom 3, Ryan said results in NO ORDER. (nm)

The bottom line is an infected person in
the largest city in Texas... not good.
Now that I've reached the bottom of the bottle but...
thanks for the info. I love this product and so did my mom. The funeral director asked what my mom used on her skin as it was in such good shape and she was a beach goer. Oh well, back to Vaseline! Any other brand name this goes by? I have used the CVS brand also thinking it is Olay with a private label of CVS.

I graduated the bottom of my high school class (#136 out of 137), but
I have an IQ of 160.
But, lets bottom line this, being as married to the most powerful man in the US
I let her slide in her clothes, shoes, etc. She has a tall brother, therefore maybe her father tall, don’t know about her mother. She carries a lot of clout, no matter how she dresses, wears, her height, and on and on. Don’t hate on the First Lady.
Just wanted to comment on the wonderful quote at the bottom of your post!

Frito corn chips in the bottom of a bowl, chili
on that with your choice of toppings - we usually put shredded cheese and onions on top. The local BBQ joint makes it with corn chips, shredded pulled pork, bbq sauce and bbq beans - SOOOO good!!

How long is too long to wait for Pap results?
This is a follow up Pap for an abnormal one a few months back. I have waited for the results for over a month and have called the office once. Any advised about being a patient patient - LOL. Its hard when your in this business, I think anyway, not to be more aggressive about stuff like this.
Hair
Oh yeah! I have a long-haired cat. My living room looks like she had a fight with Santa and Santa lost his white trim and long beard. LOL
Hair
Oh I know you meant people hair. Just wanted to share that my cat is goning through the same thing these days. I guess because she is just so close to my heart she feels like a child not a pet.
