Good afternoon, friends.
I have had the same hair style for almost forty years. (I admit a year or so with a fro, but that was an anomaly) Due to a lot of broken and split ends, the length has stayed about the same since my last haircut, which was in the fall of 2005. The truth is that my hair has been rapidly thinning for the last few years, and it will no longer stay in my trademark pony tail.
My older daughter is a very successful hair stylist, and I have made an appointment with her for next Sunday. We will all go out to breakfast and then to her shop and she is going to cut my hair short. I have put myself in her hands. We will be taking before and after pictures, so watch this space.

will you be changing your name to shorthair?
Absolutely not. I have been longahir75 for so long, it is impossible to abandon it now.
You are most welcome to post pictures here. I've done it many times! I do love long hair on a man, but that's just my 1970s youth talking....
I will edit the picture back in then ;o)
I tried to talk Dennis into growing a ponytail-he'd gotten VERY thin on top and the only place he could grow hair was at the hair line on his neck. Pete, as someone who grew out her hair for a year so that it reached my shoulder (before I went back to my short, short style), be prepared to not recognize yourself!
We must be going in opposite directions. After having cut off my long hair two years ago, I am ready to go back to it. I am not getting thinner (either in hair or body habitus), just grayer.
Sheila,
I started going grey before I was out of high school. My mom always told me that My dad had dark, thick hair, but he passed away when he was forty six. Forty six was a long time ago for me, and my hair is rapidly thinning.
I think it's good to shake things up every once in a while. Can't wait to see your new look.
I turned gray just about the time I started a family. But my hair went white after I found the Internet.
Nice pic, and I'm looking forward to checking out the "after."
Loo Fed! pics please when you have time.
Grrrrrrrr!
