Fuck my "F****t Hair", Apparently

Now that it's darker (amazing what avoiding the sun will do, more auburn than the red any more) and going silver...

My red-headed grandma went silver. There were a number of years in the middle of that process when her hair was PINK!!

I used to have long, (non-orange) red, hair. Even having a tough scalp did nothing to reduce the number of migraines I got from the sheer weight of it. Between that and the fact that I had people constantly trying to TOUCH IT, I got it cut off. That did cause a stylist to almost cry, but they didn't have to deal with it day in and day out.. I did.

Now that it's darker (amazing what avoiding the sun will do, more auburn than the red any more) and going silver, I might let it grow out again, but I'll have to figure out knots to take the weight off the face and neck.

I found that as I aged my hair got thinner, which helped with the weight related headaches. If you can manage it, the best 'do for me was double french braids. If you don't like the juvenile look, you can pin up the ends across the hairline at the back of your neck for an easy, very classy look.

If it's long enough you can do this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lG4MTltnX7M

Ohhhh. That's nice. I think I will try it.

I'm attaching a picture of what I was talking about before.

I used to do something similar, except with regular braids instead of french or dutch.
