I'm glad you enjoyed the post! :-) I love to write words that bring joy to the hearts of people who deserve it. I agree so completely with what you said about a "new form of yourself" being born when you dreaded your hair. For me, it's a rite of passage. I'd intended to let it come and go without comment, but then I felt frisky enough to post new profile pics, and after that I had no choice but just come right out and talk about it because so many people were making remarks about my hair. It's amazing how much impact a few hundred thousand strands of dead keratin can have on the people they're attached to. LOL!
