Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
My hair comes down to the middle of my back, give or take. It is long but not too long. The gals at the local Great Clips here all have short hair, yes, all of them, and some even have various shades of blue, purple or pink. They seem to feel it is unbearable to wear hair this long in the summertime and they push really hard to convince me to shorten my hair for the sake of the summertime heat. I simply throw mine up in a ponytail when I am working outside, so no biggie. But when you refuse their expert tip on cutting off your mane for the sake of summertime heat, they seem offended that you would decline their expert advice. It's okay to decline the expert advice at Great Clips if you truly enjoy your long hair, even in the summertime. You do you!
Shoot I just went yesterday and had my hair cut and she took off 5 inches. Probably could’ve gone with 3 more taken off but I love my long hair. Those gals at GC should focus more on trying to look more normal than to see who can look the strangest.
I don't get why older ladies always get short haircuts. Maybe their hair is falling out or something but it makes them look worse.
Many times it makes them look older. I get that it’s less to deal with but I like my long hair. I look horrid with short hair 😆
