Well, five years ago, I had pin thin straight hair--like I do right now. I got bored with it and had it curled. So four years ago, I had long, curly hair. Then a year after that (so that was three years ago), I woke up and wanted to chop it all off--you know, the impulsive streak and all--so I went to the hair dresser and had everything chopped off--and well, let's just say there was very little left of my hair. So I had it in a bob for the past two years and it grew out pretty quick. :>
