18 Basic Questions Girls With Long Hair Always Get Asked

Having long hair is a struggle. I wish I kept a time sheet of how many times I’ve gotten asked all these questions!

“Are you growing out your hair for charity?”

90% of the time no one is, but saying this makes you sound very selfish. One day I would love to donate my hair to charity, but that day is not today (applause all around for everyone who donates their hair!).

“How long does it take you to curl/straighten/blow dry your hair?”


The normal amount of time it takes you to

?

“It’s like 100 degrees out, why is your hair down?”


TBH so you don't see the sweat on my back...

“Your hair is so thick, how can you manage it at this length?”


Imagine this: my thick hair + 6 inches shorter=1000 times harder to manage


“Have you always had long hair?”


Ah yes came out the womb with these long locks!

“Have you ever had your hair really short?”


Clearly... that’s how I know long hair looks better on me.

“Does your hair tangle easily?”


What do you think?

“Do you go through shampoo bottles really fast?”


It’s not a race, I use the normal amount of shampoo.

“So the same with conditioner too?”


Oh… now that’s a totally different question.

“Did you know if you cut your hair off, it’ll make you look older and more professional?”


WHAT NO WAY THAT MEANS I MUST GO CUT IT OFF RIGHT NOW!


“How long did it take you to grow it out?”


Well, you see I didn’t get a haircut for 4 years and I have the dead ends to show it.

“Does your head hurt from all the hair you have?”

Okay seriously, I’ve been asked this too many times. Like, no? Does your head hurt from your paper thin hair?

“How do you keep your hair looking so good all the time?”


LOL, I HAVEN’T WASHED IT IN 4 DAYS.


“Do you shed a lot of hair?”

Enough said.

“You should cut it” or “I wonder what you would look like with short hair.”

Not a question, but please stop “suggesting” what I should do with my hair unless I ask for your opinion.

“Don’t cut your hair off” or “Other girls are jealous of your hair & they want you to cut it off so it’ll make their hair look better” –Mom

BTW my mom tells me this all the time and I love it and it is what makes me keep my long hair.

“Your hair is so looonnnggg and you keep up with it very well” –Hairdressers

Honestly, I do not keep up with it well at all, I know you are lying to me but I love being flattered so thank you :)

“Omg, I wish I had your hair!”

How dare you.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
