I have browny blonde hair. In the winter it's darker, and in the summer it's really golden. It goes half way down my back, and it's slightly wavy. Oh yeah, I have a very long fringe. (or bangs if your american)


It's to about the middle of my back and is really curly*pouts*my sisters both got straight hair.


Curly hair is lovely!

It might be but it's a pain trying to brush it considering my hair's really thick and frizzy.It's just a pain to try and keep looking halfway descent at least it is for me anyway.

I find that the best way to maintain my curly hairis actually not to brush it.

Brushing it only ruins the curls, and often makes the hair much larger and much more frizzy. A hard learned lesson it was [thick curly hair,here.]

Oh and in the shower, I always rinse my hair upside down, rather than standing upright under the showerhead, and allowing the water to plaster down the top of my hair,which kills the curls on the top of my head. Also,when I get out of the shower, I wrap my hair in a towel only for a minute, so it's not dripping any more, but then I take the towel off,to keep it from pressing out the curls.

That actualy sounds a lot like what I'm doing now especialy with the not brush it part unless I want to completly soak it with my spraybottle after I brush it.

My hair is light brown with gold highlights and a bit of copper-red. It is very curly! When left alone, it barely reaches my shoulders, but when I straighten it, it reaches halfway to my waist! (Talk about coil-power)

Hmmm...My hair is a darker brown and kinda curly, especially the towards the back. It's rather unruly, so I just let it do what it pleases now. *shrugs*

My hair is brown with grey in it and long to mid back, with a rising hairline and thin atop. I have the true blue David Crosby look. Yep I'm one of those old guys who is losing it but refuses to cut!

My avatar (Cherif Fortrin) has my look of when I was 25.

I should add I have a natural multicolor (black, brown, red, and more and more grey) beard as well.

My hair's quite strange. I grew it out so it's half way donw my back (the farthest it can go) and is rather thick but not tremendously thick. It's dark brown but sometimes can have red highlights. It's limp and hard to keep in a postion for long so I usually have it up in quick positions like a ponytail or bun or just leave it hanging around my face. I don't have bangs but am thinking of getting two long swoops on either side of my face. It's usually straight but sometimes can get wavy or slightly curly. If I don't put it up in something after taking a showerit frizzes out every where and looks awful! I still like my hair, though.

I have short, Frodo-styled hair that's dark auburn. My hairdresser is always raving about how thick and nicely wavy it is.

I was born with jet black hair too, but it fell out and came back brown. My dad has either black or dark brown hair. I don't remember which. My mom was born with red hair which "morphed" into reddish brown when whe was in middle-high school, and she started getting greys at 21. Dad got greys in his late 20's. I'm 21.. no greys yet. I also don't smoke, unlike them. Nasssty habbits.
Mine is weird. I put sun-in in it last summer, so it's half my color, half blondishy. :lol:

My hair will HOLD some curls. lol. When I was little, you know back when we actually hated showers, my grandmother would curl my hair for sunday school, and it'd say till Tues or Wed, or until she could convince me to bathe. :lol:

Sounds like me! *lol* I mean, I'll put it up (usually in Legolas' braids or something like it) but I'm not one of those who constantly fixes their hair *rolls eyes at gym class' antics*

My mom calls my brother the German baby (or did. He's in his twenties now)-- he had the brightest white towhead you've ever seen (and plus, his first words were "Das est min" O.o not kidding. That is mine!) and his hair turned dark dark brown when he was thirteen (then bright blue, but that change wasn't natural). I've apparently escaped that fate. And I've decided to not cut my hair for as long as I can hold out-- I haven't cut it in the last four years but oh well. Thing is, it shreds at the ends (and yes, I condition it and all that; i've just got baby-hair, super fine) and doesn't grow past where it is now. But oh well.

I'm a strawberry blonde, but i've been able to find nearly every colour in my hair (including a white one - not grey, white). It's about shoulder length, slightly wavy, and in a ponytail. i wanna get it cut funky short and spikey though.

My hair has a mix of colors since I haven't cut it in like 5 years. So the top of my head is darker than my tips. But the basic colors are light brown, and darkish blonde. And it's down to my waist, but it shall be cut to my shoulders this Spring!!!

It is also wavy at the bottom if I don't blow dry it straight.

My hair is a deep reddish auburn color with highlights, which everybody likes for some reason. Its different, which i do like, but i want to color it. Its shoulder length, which i am growing out, and wont hold a curl for more that about 5 minutes(seriously) and if i dont brush it about once every couple of hours it gets to be kinda matted and messy looking.

Mine is blonde and for that I get teased a lot! But it is really thick and quite wavy, and is mid backlength or so. I keep hoping I will get the nerve to get it cut shorter because I'm really tired of it being so wicked long and stuff, but I'm afraid if I get it cut it will be too short and thick so I'll just have to have it the way it is...

I guess my hair is okay. I sure prefer having rather than not having! It is dark brown and straight as a board, exept for a little segment behind my left ear that curls in a spiral. :twitch: ( no idea why it does that) And believe it or not, down at hip level in length. ( the curly bit is only neck length and always has been for some odd reason)
I almost never wear it down. When I do, I always get it caught on door handles and stuff. (yes, door handles) Sitting on it is also VERY annoying! Hurts too, if your not expecting it.

To the end of shoulder blades, light brown/dark blond and straight. At the moment with blond stripes. ^-^ Never fully coloured my hair, once I got a perm that that's nearly an year ago..
And I LOVE my hair! ^-^

SOmetimes my hair is tamable, sometimes I wake up looking like something out of a horror movie. My hair's dark, semi-curly. Very pretty when it sits down properly. But when 'boofyness' attacks, ti's torturous.

ABagginsOfTheShire: Lol! 'boofyness'! What a perfectly descriptive word! I got a wonderful mental picture of what your hair does, just from that word! *laughs*

Lol, and there's nothing I can do about it sometimes! It's okay when it's left out, but when I tie it up in a ponytail... okay, it's like this. When it's left out, all the boofyness is kinda spread out and my hair just looks nice, with a good amount of volume. But when I tie it up, all that boofyness comes together to make one big boofball. It's horrible.

Boofyness, eh?
My hair is mid-blond and very straight. I just cut it a couple of weeks ago, it's pretty short now. It is between my shoulders and my ears, and it's shorter around my face. It's also cut in layers, so my stupid thin hair finaly has some volume.

Let's see... I've got light brown hair that's about all the way down to my ...backside. It's about 1 to 2 feet long. And BTW, I'm a dude.

I like to braid my hair all the way for about 3 weeks at a time, then let it out. Then I get the lead singer of Led Zepplin look.
It's usually pony-tailed (a la Steve Segal, who I hate) but I also like to put a few large braids in it, going for that "Viking" look.

I dyed it black once. Big mistake. In 10 years I've only cut it once, and it went from super-long to super-short in 10 minutes. Last time I do something like that for a girl...lol

My hair is curly and brown. It's a little bit past my shoulders because long hair always annoys me. I always get it stuck on everything when it is long.

My hair's mid-brown, reaches half-way down my back, is naturally wavy and very thick.
I've been trying to grow it for the past five years, and I'm not sure when I'm planning on stopping. I've also been considering joining what seems to be the fasion today and straightening it. I've even bought a (very expensive!) hair straightener, but so far I've been to scared to try it!

I have very dark brown, almost black hair that goes a few inches past my shoulders. It's also very thick which can be both a good thing and a bad thing (it's very hard to control sometimes. :dizzy:.)

I know that's right! Some days I just wanna shave my head instead of washing/conditioning/ponytailing it.
