what was your first long-hair novel ?

[patsur]

As a little child, I remember that my love for long hair was quite vague. Only later (say - 11 or 12 years old), I came across the novel of "She" by R. Haggard, about an immortal Egyptian queen, who lived for 2000 years in a city deep in the caves of Kor in Africa. Her hair was long (down to the floor), and glossy black.
I think that at that point I started to understand that I have this thing with long hair. The book did not have too many pictures, so my imagination played a major role.

What is your "first long-hair" novel ?

Oh, by the way, it was a very heart-breaking scene at the end of this book, when she lost her immortality, then lost her sight, then lost all of her hair, and then shrunk into a hideous 2000 years old creature, who died within minutes.
