Long Hair History - Noreen's Photos

Noreen has graciously provided notes on each photo of her long hair growing history below:

I was about 6 months old in this picture. As you can see I didn’t start out with much hair.

3 Years old. Well at least I had some hair by then.

Nor02.jpg (44473 bytes)

6 Years old. This is one of my first home perms. Notice how one side took better than the other. This was always the case.

7 Years old. This was one of my shorter cuts and the perm came out very curly. Sorry for the focus but the picture is about 37 years old.

10 Years old. Don’t laugh, but I just loved this do. I thought it made me look so grown up.

Nor05.jpg (28935 bytes)

12 Years old. My hair has grown out some, but my bangs are only just long enough to tuck behind my ears.

Nor06.jpg (52436 bytes)

13 Years old. Twiggy was my idol. I might never have a body like hers, but I was going to have her hair.

Nor07.jpg (27766 bytes)

17 Years old. 4 Months after my shag cut. I hated my hair at this point. I just couldn’t get it to do ANYTHING!!!

NOR08.jpg (9792 bytes)

18 Years Old. My hair grew pretty fast during this time, but it was still different lengths. I was a Flower Child of the early 70’s hence the fashionable clothes.

Nor09.jpg (22547 bytes)

21 Years Old. My hair had reached my elbows, and was now at one length.

NOR10.jpg (21002 bytes)

25 Years Old. This is my hair at waist length.

NOR11.jpg (27850 bytes)

30 Years Old. This is a vidcap. By now we weren’t taking many photos. Video was easier and the results are immediate. It’s hard to see but my hair was below my butt. I am sitting on a bed, reading. That is why you can’t see the rest of me.

NOR12.jpg (21632 bytes)

41 Years old. This was taken within 6 months of moving back to New England. The different climate was already effecting my hair.

NOR13.jpg (54837 bytes)

Thought I would throw this in. As you can see my Mom had great hair, and I just love the barrette. It was always my dream to have hair like hers. She styled her hair using rag curls.

Daily Hair Tip
Know your hair type and be realistic about what hair styles work best with it. Don't agree to a new hair style that you know in your heart will be impossible to duplicate at home.
