    If you don't cut it, it will
    If you don't cut it, it will grow long. Who would have thought? Sing the song 'Hair'. You're 'just a hairy gal' now.

    Moopster... as in: Shorn! LOL
    It is about 1 year since my hair started to come back, it was about4 inches, but getting fluffy and untidy on the top and sides, so I didn't have it cut really, more like a good tidy up and about 1 inch off the top. It looks very nice, I think.
