Talking BIG & Long!!

Do any of you other long haired ladies also have rather large hair? The kind of hair where you see yourself in shadow and it's like WHOA!!! I hope to one day have hair bigger than my body, which will probably make me a lollipop head, but I don't care. I'd love to see pictures!!

Re: BIG & Long!!

I love big hair, too. My hair isnīt all that thin, but unfortunately Iīve got very broad shoulders, so in comparison my hair looks like thereīs not a lot of it. Too bad!

Talking Re: BIG & Long!!

I can get mine big ....it was great in the 80's!

Now I try to keep it a bit more subdued.....Otherwise I'd have kids following me around singing that "1985" song to me....

Re: BIG & Long!!

This is my hair after a day of wearing it down. Right before my 5 inch cut.



It's always big unless I bun.

Re: BIG & Long!!

It's not that much of a WHOA! but I might have relatively big and long hair. I also love seeing big hair , here's my contribution although not at it's biggest but still big enough to cover my body, it's a warm feeling


ETA: I've got broad shoulders too, used to be a professional athlete. But unfortunately my stupid hair makes a ball and making illusions showing my head bigger and my body smaller and my face lost in there

Re: BIG & Long!!

I've got big hair. It used to be bigger, but it has calmed down a lot since I started taking better care of it and it's gotten longer.

Re: BIG & Long!!

My hair is definitely not big, though I wish it would be at times!

Kris- just want to say your hair looks awesome, and that trim looked way less than 5 inches!

Re: BIG & Long!!

I definitly have big hair. It forms a large triagle, with the point being my head and base just below classic length:when I wear it down, it's wider than I am all the way down.

Thumbs up Re: BIG & Long!!

My hair is big...although the longer length has pulled the curls down a bit, making it more tamed.

It's funny how when I was addicted to using styling tools, I would do everything to straighten it. Since I have fine hair, it looks so much less full straight. Since i've joined LHC, i've learned to love my natural curls.

Re: BIG & Long!!

My hair used to be huge, wider than my shoulders (ok that is no biggie...), I had much, thick, and curly. Longer I had it (stretched) was waist lenght, it had a lot of fairytale ends (honestly: broken from damage) but it was still huge, all the way up. Monster shadow certainly
Now I have less hair (never recovered the fullness after an anaemia) perhaps not as thick (still coarse though) and the henna and moisture have loosened the curls. I always wanted to have flatter hair, but now I miss the hugeness

I could easily achieve the volume with a diffusor I guess, but I don't have a blowdrier (and I am resisting the temptation very well)

Re: BIG & Long!!

Welcome, Shananessence!

Provocative thread title.

I might qualify...

But I think the queen of big hair is Diana Ross!

Re: BIG & Long!!

I tortured my fine hair into bigness in the 80's...does that count?

I do love the look of big hair. If it made a big comeback, I would have to struggle with myself not to get a perm and go for it.

Re: BIG & Long!!

My hair is definitely big! I like to keep it as smoothed down as possible though. Sometimes I win, sometimes I don't.


OH MY GOODNESS!!! I JUST REALIZED I'M A GURU NOW!!! WOO HOO

Thanks birdiefu. It feels better too. The big hair pic was 28.5 inches. After the trim I was 23.5 inches. I had a deep V that was dry and damaged.

And about hair it's the same in me too, I like to keep it smooth and use heavy conditioners to weigh it down. Sometimes I win but usually I don't, hair just wanna puff out
