chhotiiThanks, everyone, who replied to my question about hair! I was glad to see opinions so divided on the issue. It means that whatever I wind up doing, some people will approve. (Likewise, whatever I do, some will disapprove. But, looking at the glass as half-full.)
At the moment, the hair is growing. This is not so much a fashion statement as it is a result of having too much work to do to get to the hairdresser. Hairdressers want to work normal hours; the last time I went for a haircut after hours, the hairdresser seemed kind of rushed and tired. But I feel weird about leaving work during business hours when there is so much work hanging over my head.
Especially easy to procrastinate the haircut since I don't speak in hairdresser terms, so I don't know the words to use to explain what I want. And I don't know what's possible, not knowing much about hair. And, mentally comparing the results with haircuts I had at age 23, I'm never trilled with the results anymore-- my hair is thinner and my face is fatter, so it's hard to fake enthusiasm for my appearance for the sake of the hairdresser.
The one thing I like about getting a haircut is that I like the sensation of having my hair washed by someone else. I could probably find volunteers to wash my hair, though.

2) really really young-- young enough to get away with crazy stuff
3) either genetically blessed with thick, shiny hair (or wearing wigs)
4) willing to spend more time than I am with styling products and hairdryers.
We need fashion magazines for normal women! I generally fail to get fashion inspiration looking at pictures of 110 pound, 6 foot 15-year-olds. Do you know of any such mags?
