Rapunzel

If you have ever read my very first post, you might remember that running was not my only goal for 2012. The other was to grow my hair.

Sounds pretty stupid, really; it's not like it takes any mental effort! However, my hair had got to the stage where I dyed it so often that it snapped off, and never got any longer than this:

(I know you've seen this photo before, but you have no idea how hard it was to find a picture of me where you could see the length of my hair).

My hair sat just on my boobs, and was really thin. When I was younger, and it was my natural brown, it was super long, full of body and sooo luxurious. I really missed my long, thick hair, so I made-do by rocking my extensions (which didn't look as tacky as it sounds!), and making a NY resolution to get it to grow, somehow.

Two years on, I think it is fair to say that I nailed it!

All I did was stop getting my whole head of hair dyed. Now, I get just a half head. It means there is a lot of brown, but it looks fine :)

And it's so loonnnngggg! I also use Moroccan oil every now and then, and I almost never use hot tools on it. This means I have to let it dry naturally, and because it is sooo thick it takes forever to dry! If any one has any tips to get it to dry faster and not look like Hermione Granger, I would love to know, haha.
