Ideal Length

There are many factors that can come into the equation when aiming for a certain length. Some of them include: how the length looks straight or natural, how practical it is to maintain, how it will fit your face, whether you want a blunt cut or are content with a V-shape, layering, etc.
You can have two bra-strap length girls with one having longer hair than the other because of neck length, height, the length of the back, etc. So a hair goal can be relative to perception, features, body and aesthetic preference.

For me, waist length hair was never a desire. Even as a child I thought Rapunzel was over-doing it. I've always preferred hair that hits mid-chest length in the front and somewhere between Bra-strap and Mid-back in the back with a blunt cut. That is my ideal length-straightened. I think it would be a lot of fun to have hair down to the waist, but I don't think it would fit me and I don't think I'd enjoy the detangling process.

What look are you trying to achieve as far as length?

Happy New Year!!!

This year I didn't make a physical list of lifestyle changes that I was going to employ. That's because as 2008 was coming to an end, I realized what a terrible year it had been for me. I couldn't even recall what I said I was going to do for that year. I just know I had done nothing because of certain circumstances. Instead of saying 2009 would be better, I didnt wait. I started to do the things I said I would do. I resolved that I would stop talking and start doing. I don't have to tell someone I'm going somewhere. When I get there, they'll know. The clock does not have to strike 12 in order for you to start over. Every second of every day is time gone by. Don't wait.
I hope this is the best year of our lives.
