The ability to have a variety of hair styles:

unbrushed,

I didn’t brush my hair today. I’m lazy.

pony tail,

weird topknot,

My lip was doing wonky things….

etc….

When it goes beyond healthy and is in desperate need of a trim, it splits and then it like DOUBLES THE AMOUNT OF STRANDS ON YOUR HEAD… (Clearly, I’m past due for my cut…. I’m calling this “volume”)

seriously bad….

If there is an unbearable smell near by, you can “breathe through your hair.” Thanks to PR Sista for this one. This is actually the number one, top, most awesome thing about long hair. In case you didn’t know.

OMG WHAT IS THAT STENCH?!?

If you are sad or can’t bear the thought of making  eye contact with a person because then you may have to talk to them, you can easily hide behind your hair. It isn’t a pretty look but sometimes it is totally necessary when you need to keep it together..

this is how i feel today.

This was all I could think of at the moment but I am certain that you have more. What else is super awesome about having long hair??

*this post is not meant to offend those with short hair. however, that smell…. good luck avoiding it.
