3rd Trimester

I can't decide! Help please!

Ok, so I wanted grow my hair out until it was long enough to cut 12 inches off to donate to Locks of Love.  I've done it before and I really want to continue.  Like I did last time I donated, I need to grow my hair long enough that once the 12 inches is cut off I can still tie my hair back, I need to keep it tied up for work.  So, on one hand I want to let it continue growing but on the other hand it's driving me nuts and I really want to cut it.  Since I can't do my normal workouts, I've been doing water aerobics and swimming.  And it's a PITA to keep my hair under control while in the pool.  It just won't cooperate.  I know this isn't just me trying to make a drastic irrational hormone driven decision because I've been on the fence about this for the past month.  At this point I just can't decide.  What do you ladies think I should do?  TIA

  • Do you wear a cap when you swim?

    Not anymore.  But when I did I still had problems.

  • I say keep growing it. I did the same thing when I cut off all my hair. I was SO tempted to cut it at a certain point. It is worth the wait.

    As far as swimming goes...braid it as tightly as you can, and then coil it up real tight on the top of your head. It looks funny, but it's TOTALLY out of your way. Hopefully it's long enough now to do that.

    I'll try it.  Thanks!

  • I think you should keep growing it.  I donated to Locks of Love a couple of years ago also and it made me feel really good to do it.  You have already made it this far - I think you will think it's worth it once it is done.
