A Ponytail

So, I cut my hair short on my 26th birthday. I remember one day when I was working out at Barwis with Jesse back in 2013 and I was laying on the turf on my back. It was a little bit warm in there and I pulled my hair back as if I was pulling it into a ponytail. Back then, my hair was so short that I told Jesse that, “I really miss having a ponytail!” as my hair just fell to the sides of my head because it wasn’t long enough to be in a ponytail.

With the quarantine, I figured out that I must have gotten my eyebrows waxed and my hair cut back in mid-February because I didn’t get one in March because that’s when things start to get serious. I had Sean take a picture because I couldn’t believe it myself!:

He took a few pictures to show how long my hair has gotten. And it has gotten so long that:

There it is! My ponytail! Something that I haven’t had in the past 12 years! I wonder how long my hair will grow till I can get it cut. I don’t have any ponytail holders now but I didn’t keep it all pulled back even though it can be. I will often toss my hair back over my shoulders with either one of my hands and Sean and my Mom will just shake their heads.

Yesterday, right after I blowdried my hair, I sat in my kitchen with Sean and I tossed to my head back and flipped my hair over my shoulder with my left hand as I told him that he may not recognize me because my hair is so long! He kind of snorted at that but I know it’s true! If I had a ponytail holder, I probably would use it pretty soon.
