A few hidden locks...
And one Hawaiian (and not hidden at all) lock...
It's all over.
Things I will miss:
Using it to go unrecognized by people who knew me with short hair (meaning anyone who knew me past three years ago)
Doing the old "hair mustache" and "hair beard" tricks when bored
Putting my hair up in a bun then taking it down to find long soft waves formed
Smelling my hair after it's been washed
Things I will not miss:
Feeling more feminine than I ever had ever in my life ever ever ever
The heat it retained at the base of the neck in summer
The "beaver tail" that formed at the base of the neck when I didn't brush it
My cat throwing up hairballs made partially from my own hair
The pulling at the roots that comes with dread formation (and the red scalp too)
Using gallons of shampoo to clean it
Finding myself with a mouthful of hair that's still attached to my head while eating other things like spaghetti or a hot bowl of pho
My parents hinting ever so nicely that they hate my long hair
Tripping over/stepping on/accidentally pulling/getting my bracelets and watch stuck in my hair (which was basically every day)
The thought of serial rapists targeting ladies with long hair more than ladies with short hair
As romantic as it looked, it wasn't me. I'm glad it's going to people who want it more. So here's to looking like a twelve year old boy again!

um.. Hi!
i sometimes stumble across your little blog here but not very often.. buut i just saw this post about cutting your hair which i know happened like almost 2months ago buut (and i dont know if henry told you or not) i dont have a long beard anymore. i wanted to let you know cuz you are one of the only people that actually liked it. and reading through your 'what you'll miss' and 'what you wont miss' i realised that your hair and my beard had a lot in common.
will miss: i too went unrecognized by people i used to know a long time ago.
will miss(cuz it was somethin to do while bored): i didnt put my beard in a bun but i would twist it around and around til it hurt and then let it go to find it was more.. shapable? somethin like that
will miss: washed beard smell cuz it could reach my nose and then some
and i will totally miss: hiding things in my beard or seeing just how much it can hold
wont miss:
-me coughing up hair made from my own hair
-tangles and pulling and my hurting chin
-using more shampoo than ive ever been used to
-mouthfull of hair when eating (oh man, big time)
-everyone hinting that they hate my beard
-never stepped on or tripped over my beard but it did get stuck in lots of things
-the thought of being mistaken for a serial rapist
its weird being able to relate long girl hair to kinda long gross man beard. wish it was long enough to donate. (and dont tell anyone cuz i think its gross but my mom has my beard in a ziplock bag. i tried to steal so someone could do reconstructive surgery on a bear it but it didnt work, sorry)
would you still be my friend if i used beard coloring to make my beard old man salt and pepper colored? haha, its just something im throwing around for the next beard...
uumm... byyye.
um..(um) hiiii...(hii)
[that'swith an echo]
haha if you dye your next beard salt and pepper, can i call you mountain face?
since i request that henry give me complete updates regarding your beard, i did know you had it cut and put into a ziplock bag.
if you can manage to steal it back, i have many a bear that would like to have beard for feet.
now that i think about it, i should have used myy hair to make into teddy bear feet...yeah...that would have been some looong feet...
see ya later mountain face!
hahahaha...awww..fff- you totally gleeped my glimflark!
