You get the point.
Right now I'm in a growing out phase. I'm just barely past the threatening-to-shave-it-all-off days. I was so excited when it got long enough to pull back into a pony tail without the assistance of bobby pins. And today I hit another milestone - officially long enough for an up-do. Since it is 412 degrees with 412 percent humidity around here, I was desperate for anything to remain cool.
I have to tell you - it's not particularly easy to take pictures of the back of your own head.
Christina, this particular hair made me think of you - you used to do something like this in college!
The idea of this (in addition to staying cool) was that it would be faster than the flat-iron adventure. Well...in theory. But it's been so long since I did an up-do, it actually took five minutes longer than normal.
So much for that.

Too cute! And I know what you mean. I always think I'll throw in some braids or pigtails when I'm in a hurry . . . a half hour later I'm still trying to get the part down the middle to be straight. Darn perfectionism!!
Bekah, it may have taken longer, BUT, in addition to being cute you are going to be about 320 degrees cooler with the "new do!"
Yep...that style looks familiar!
I am celebrating the fact that I can now pull mine back in a semi-decent ponytail once again. I don't love the way it looks right now, but in 90 degree weather, I don't really care. If I curl my hair, it gets all weird, wild and frizzy in the humidity. If I straighten it, it gets weird waves and kinks. So a ponytail it is!
Julie - AMEN TO THAT!! I was so tired by the end of the adventure, I had to rest my arm on the wall of the bathroom!
Tsofah - And it's all about being 320 degrees cooler!
Christina - God bless the inventor of the ponytail! I haven't even tried curling since it got loner....
wow...I can't remember seeing your hair pulled back...it MUST be getting long! :) Looks nice!!
It's getting there!! Of course soon I'll be perusing the hair magazines....
