It's probably best not to say anything negative about your hair to someone like that, since the response probably will be to straighen it or frizz-ease it or whatever.

I'm sure your short hair looks adorable! You'll get used to it soon, and short hair always seems to grow so much faster, anyway, that in a month or so you'll have a lot more to work with.

Who are you telling!!! Even tho, i do think that their are most of us than we think! Everytime i want to buy some FOTE AVG, there's never any... and it always seems that the Lustrasilk or any other CG Friendly products are low or out of stock... i wonder how many of us there really are...

. But yea, i know i can't force anyone to understand

. that's why i didnt say anything. this particular lady just really liked my hair long and like boomy said, flat ironing would give it a longer look. for a second she just made me feel like my hair looked bad - as if flat ironing was the only way to achieve a better look. but after jumping the gun, i guess it has more to do with my insecurity at the moment, cause I KNOW she didnt mean to be rude or mean. i just had to rant

. my hair does grow super duper fast, so yea, i'll probably end up cutting it again! who knows! i'm crazy like that!
loooooove the GVP, btw
