    My OH used to have really long hair too, but when he got to be an 'executive' type he felt he wasn't being taken seriously enough in business so had it chopped.

    I sat in the hairdressers with him - me in tears!! Gutted is not the word!

    Anyway, he has it very long on top & super-spiked so he can still look a bit 'rock' when we go to gigs etc now.

    Don't worry about LUSH yet, you'll get an entry into the draw eventually - I have 3 now & I was a late-comer with it.
    We used to have a system where we all just passed the parcel to anyone on the list who hadn't yet won.

    Not sure what's happening with it now though. x

    My hubby used to have hair down his back too, I made him get it cut when I was walking down the road behind him one day and saw this thinning pony tail with a "monks crown" and grey bits, I told him he looked like Francis Rossi and it was time for it to go :rotfl:
    That ain't working! That's the way to do it, money for nothing and TV's for free ;)
