Tuesday Beauty Poll
By Glinda
Ah yes, I had to move the poll to a Tuesday AGAIN, but I promise it will be the last time for many moons.
Last week I had the audacity to ask how you tended your lady-garden, and only 17% of you were offended and basically said it was none of my beeswax. Much less than I expected! The highest vote-getter was a lush version, with 32%. The next-highest was a garden that was meticulously groomed, and 21% voted for the dirt patch. I really wanted a better way to express the “no hair’ option, but nothing went well with the theme I had going. I personally prefer the dirt-patch option, but it has zero to do with wanting to look like a porn star or harken back to my prepubescent days (common assertions about those of us who prefer this look) but more of a comfort issue than anything else. It just feels better to me.
Today’s question is much less invasive, to which at least the 17% mentioned above are heaving a sigh of relief.
Jennifer Aniston’s new hair style, which I’m not a big fan of, got me thinking.

It’s been more than 15 years for me, but I found a cut that very much suits my face, my style and my life. Plus my hair went completely white just about then and is really not happy being more than short and well groomed. (Truth be told, I did grow it out once about 13 years ago, but it was such a huge mistake that I’m denying all knowledge of it.)

I said two to four years ago. I’ve never cut it all short in one go like Jen just did, but every few years I cut a fringe, love it for a week, and then pin it back for a year until it grows out. I’ve been sorely tempted to do so again lately which means that I never do learn my lesson! My hair is crazy curly so it never does sit quite right.

I went super-short back in December. Love it. It’s giving my hair a chance to recover and get healthy again.
