Hi guys. It's been a while since I've visited this site. I'm in a dilemma right now and I really hope you guys could help:
In October, I cut my hair. My almost-a-food long ponytail, all gone now. I cut it because I couldn't stand how somedays it'd annoyingly stick out like twigs in a broom-like fashion. So, here I am without my ponytail (My hair is still not exactly short. The bangs can almost touch my chin) and I think I look better without my hard-earned ponytail and other people seem to agree. The problem is, I CAN'T STOP THINKING ABOUT MY PONYTAIL! I miss having hair brushing on my back! I wake up in the morning, touch the back of my head and just jump because my ponytail isn't there anymore, if you know what I mean. I can't really call cutting it a mistake, because looking better is a pretty fair trade-off to missing my ponytail to death. Guys, I don't know what to do. I like I having long hair, but I like the way I look now better...
By the way, if I grow it back out this time, it'll be a lot better. I noticed that the quality of my hair SIGNIFICANTLY improved. It's never been this good before, all the frizziness and kinky-ness are gone. If I grow it back, I'll have to go through the whole annoying stage again...
I guess I do want to grow my hair back (LOL, I've come to solve my own problem) but I don't have the motivation. I want my ponytail, I just don't want to go through the whole process again. Dang, this happens to me a lot... I also want to be a doctor but I don't want to go to medical school.
Any ideas? Comments? Suggestions? Please help me think of some reasons to grow it back again, I really need convincing.
Thanks,
Kiat

Shouldn't have cut it.
A few good deep conditioning treatments would have done wonders. Also, you could have braided your hair and avoided the things you didn't like in its appearance.
Bad decision in your behalf...in my opinion.
If you want it back....you'll just have to wait!
maybe you could grow it out some, but try a different style this time. shoulder length maybe?
Nice pic before u cut, man! Was your hair all the same length? Layering it will make it stick out like twigs....also static electricity does that if your hair isn't oiled enough....maybe you were stripping out your natural hair oils. Grow it out long in the back again-u know what to expect now (the good points) and that will serve as motivation through the annoying stage-it did for me! U also know what peeps are gonna say critically...it gets old and typical.
Let us know what u do!

I keep trying that page and it says you don't have a photo album. Did I miss the pix already?
