grinner just reminded me
when i was a little smash, i had very long, thick, blonde hair. it went right down to the back of my knees. one summer, i went to stay with my aunt and uncle for a fortnight. now, my uncle is bald and my aunt wears a wig which is permanently set in place. because of this, there is not a brush or comb anywhere in their house. when i got back home, i looked like a dandelion clock, my hair was matted and stuck out everywhere. 2 hours of brushing resulted in about 1/10th of my hair being tangle-free. being the impatient type, my mum grabbed a pair of scissors and gave my hair a very unwanted bob cut. it was hideous. i was only ten, but that haircut made me look about 20. it took years to grow my hair back again.
to this day, i won't let my mum anywhere near me with a pair of scissors!

Yay for long hair!
That's why I grew dreads, very difficult to make tidy with my mop! Sometimes wish I'd kept them.
Love the thought of a perma-wig though.

it was really funny
watching her pull it down from the back to straighten her fringe up
