Hi,
I'm lurking here for a few months and i thought it was not correct for doing it so long. I'm a 18 years old french longhair(?).
Since i was a young child, i loved long hair and wanted to have long hair but i never did it because my hair were too curly. But, last summer, i said to myself "Stop! I can stand anymore!", i went to the hair-dresser and made a threatment to have less curly hair (yeah, i know it's bad and i planned to stop it when they weight would be suffisant to make them fall and look almost long when curled) and i didn't cut them. I didn't had cut my hair since a few month so i gess it's my first year of growing.
So i'm here not for the reason i mentionned but for a funny story wich happened to me. That night, i was walking in the port with a few friend When we saw two drunken people. Well, no problem we continued to walk. Then, on of them said : "One girl for three guys!? It's few! ... Oh wait, there's another!" One second passed and we understood he was talking of me because of my hair. We laughed and then i thought "I think it makes me a longhair.". So i came here and i posted that.
And it's not finished! I have a few pics to post here. I'm a little shy so i won't post (for now) my face in front. I'm sorry for the wrong angle but i didn't have a better way to do this. I didn't known how to post pics (i saw the uploading box below) so i posted links

And i also have a question. What do you think of a half pony tail using only hair in your back. I thought it did a little girly so i didn't do it but i want to tie my hair and they are too short for that. I've taken a few pics :

Hey Raphael,
I agree, after something like that you certainly can call yourself a longhair.
Also, your pics show that you really reached the first stage of being a longhair :)
I think you will look very well with long hair!
Btw. that 'blue thing' is ok if you like bright colors. I for myself use black ones normally (if I use them at all).
I wish you good luck and a lot of joy in growing your hair. Just don't use too much of that staightening stuff!

PS: In which region of France do you live?
Thanks, Tom.
Well, about that hair tie, i planned to buy some black ones when i could tie my hair. So i didn't have one yet. This one is borrowed from a friend so... Something about that hair style?
I don't like saying where i live on the Internet but i guess it's okay if i'm not too precise. I'm from Normandy.

PS : I posted my first post to fast so i forgot to apologize for my awful english. So if someone see an huge gramatical mistake or a term that sound very weird in its context, i'm open to suggestions.
PS2 : Writing english with a french corrector is prety cool! :(

You post is perfectly readable and your use of English is just fine....I am always impressed when non-English speaking folks communicate on the Internet using language which is not native to them........how many of "us" can post in French, German, Chinese or Lithuanian ??
Your hair is coming along fine....Thanks for the introduction and welcome to the MLHH !! I look forward to following your progress.

Welcome to the board! and I completely agree with White Tail, I only know english and I know I'd have the poorest translated message ever if I were to try typing in another language, I would probably use a translator and then my hovercraft will be full of eels. Trust me you impress us a lot more than offending us, I had no trouble reading your post.
As far as the hair ties go, I found that matching my general hair color helps, brown or black ties work great for me as they are almost invisible when worn. However I have been known to match a hair tie to the color of a shirt I'm wearing too, it will just blend in more and look less awkward for being a brighter color.
Bienvenue, compatriote ;)
