All right, now I am greatful for any site that has to do with long hair. I'm on as many as can be. But one thing that strikes me as funny about this site is you all are REALLY into hair, I mean I have never seen so many postings about pony tails and split ends. Now I may be a bit biased cause I allready have my hair and have gone through the "awkward phases" but really. It seems that everyone needs to be themselves, dont worry about split ends,(seal them with honey then wash it out) just grow your hair and be happy in the choice that you're being an individual, and dont stress out about every little detail, like should I rub my scalp while shampooing with only organic balsa protein extract magic hair genie elixir in a bottle.
Carry on with your normal doings.
Thanx for listening to my rant. ;)

You're like me. My hair has been long since the 70s. I can't remember short hair. I don't even remember the awkward stage. I tend not to stress out either.
BUT....many people here are either growing their hair or are new to long hair. It's only natural to have questions and concerns. It's a whole different world having a spike cut that you maintained with a trim every week and having long hair that you actually need to be gentle with and take care of.
That's why the questions are not only cool and okay, but expected. You have to take care of your hair, and people here just want to help maximize their growth.
Once they get like you (or me), they'll be more laid back about it too.

hahay yea I agree. Most of us on this board are a bit paranoid, I guess it's because so many of us are new to the whole long hair thing, quite a few of us having had short hair all our lives so we have alot of questions. I think we shouldn't worry so much about our hair though. Every girl I know with long hair use all kinds of products, shampoo daily, perm, dye, brush their hair constantly and their hair still looks good. I'm not saying I'm going to do all this to my hair but if they can go through all that I don't think we should be so worried about things like shampoo stripping too much oil off our hair.

Ya, it's really pretty easy to deal with your hair, just be aware of it and take practical care of it. The more some people do with their hair the more the wreck it in the long run. If you are just getting started with it you really don't need to worry about much at all, just have patience. That's it. When I think about it I am sometimes amazed at how little work it takes to maintain my very long hair.
