“You Have Long Hair”

Today at the office, a woman said to me “You have long hair.”  It took me a second to realize that she was talking to me, so she repeated her comment. I actually looked around to make sure she was talking to me and then I thanked her. In my mind, my hair is not as long or as thick as it has been, so I almost forgot that what is considered long hair is relative.

During your hair journey, its important to have a length/thickness goal. But it’s equally important to have a picture of your starting point to remind you of how far you have come. My hair may not be at its longest or thickest state right now, but its also not as unhealthy as it was when I started my hair journey.
