I have a deep true devotion towards pretty, strong, well cared for and preferably long hair. As a matter of fact, since I was a pre-adolescent I wear my hair no other way but long. I think it was an accumulation in my subconscious of the fact that - until I went to primary school - I seemed a tomboy in short haircuts that was mistaken for a boy when wearing trousers. As soon as I got acknowledged with my femininity, I put into practice the reproduction of the sexy looks that I watched on TV, through a ragged figure of clothing that I'd put together randomly and by wearing a face towel over my head, held by clothes' pegs imitating my fetish - that of having long hair [promise that I've been keeping till now]. Once in a while I dare to change its colour, but for years [and I admit it may ound a bit weird] going to an hairdresser seemed a lot like going to the dentist - I had insomnia in the previous night, cold sweat on the way there and tachycardia until I heard the sound of the scissors being put down. Nowadays I'm way better, believe me! Unfortunately, as years went by, my hair has weakned, not that it has ever been very thick, but it was surely shinier, prettier and certainly healthier. The heat of the blowdryers, excessive brushing, the lack of basic care [masks, conditioners, ampoules, monthly trimming...] for years, the chemical process of hair dyes, the unprotection towards Uv rays, the growing amount of stress and the inevitable [but in denial] progressive ageing all contributed to an overall damage so that sometimes my hair seems like a little mice's nest! Nevertheless, better late than never, I believe that I should keep betting on using good products of maintenance, that although they don't do miracles, can surely help a lot!
Tenho uma verdadeira adoração por cabelos bonitos, fortes, bem tratados e, preferencialmente compridos. Aliás, desde a minha pré-adolescência que não uso o cabelo senão comprido. Acho que é devido a um recalcamento de até à escola primária ter parecido sempre uma maria-rapaz de cabelos curtos que quando vestia calças bem passava por rapazito. Assim que tomei consciência da minha feminilidade, pus em prática a reprodução dos looks femininos que via na televisão, através de uma versão andrajosa de peças de roupa que ia juntando sem nexo e do uso de uma toalha de rosto na cabeça, presa por molas da roupa, a imitar o meu fetiche - ter cabelos compridos [promessa que cumpro até hoje]. De vez m quando atrevo-me a mudar a cor, mas [e admito que isto pode parecer um bocado absurdo], durante anos a ida ao cabeleireiro assemelhava-se a uma ida ao dentista - tinha insónias na noite anterior, suores frios a caminho de lá e taquicardia enquanto não ouvisse o som das tesouras a pousar. Hoje já estou bem melhor, acreditem! Lamentavelmente, o meu cabelo foi enfraquecendo ao longo dos anos, não que alguma vez tenha sido muito encorpado, mas era mais brilhante, mais bonito e, seguramente, mais saudável. O calor dos secadores, o excesso de escovagens, a falta de cuidados básicos durante anos [máscaras, condicionadores, ampolas, aparar as pontas mensalmente, o processo químico da descoloração, a desproteção face aos raios UV, o crescente de stress e o inevit'avel [mas em negação] avançar da idade contribuiram para um estrago generalizado de forma a que, por vezes, o meu cabelo se assemelha a um pequeno ninho de ratos! No entanto, antes tarde que nunca, julgo que vale a pena continuar a apostar em bons produtos de manutenção que, embora não façam milagres, podem ajudar e bastante!

ReplyDeleteTambém sou muito fã de cabelos compridos Aida... mas vejo-me sp aflita com as pontas sp espigadas por causa do secador...
ReplyDeleteoh goodness, definitely love the long, full hair! so perfect!
ReplyDeletexo TJ
Aida, e que conselhos tens? Na última vez que fui ao cabeleireiro a Srª disse-me que devia cortar as pontas uma vez por mês para ver se fortalecia o cabelo. O meu é tão fino e liso e precisava de fazer umas ampolas ou assim. É que eu uso champô, condicionador, gotas para pentear e faço máscara todas as semanas e mesmo assim ele não evolui. Quero o cabelo da Lala!AMO! :p

I used to have semi long hair but I cut it off because it always got tangled and I didnt know what I was doing! I just started to grow it back out because I see what people can do with long hair!
ReplyDeleteThe photos are inspiring!

thank you for checking out my blog! I followed you back :)
ReplyDeleteI've always had long hair too. Most of the time I try not to use any heat on it (my hair is very curly and straightening it is very tempting, but also very arduous). I dyed it blonde a few months ago, but now I am back to my natural brown. The texture of my hair is rougher and drier than ever, and I am looking forward to having my soft hair back. I understand how you feel about the hairdresser. I used to only go once a year! But now, after upping my visits to every three months, my hair feels much healthier, and I don't get bored with it as easily!
lovely blog- I'm glad we found each other!

I love long hair too and am in desperate need of a trim right now. I have kept my hair long since I was a little girl. I have never taken much interest in dyeing it though. I would definitely go for a natural red color but my hair is so dark that it wouldn't look right.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your sweet comment on my blog! All of the characteristics that you used to describe my blog I can certainly use to describe yours! Everything is so pretty. I love your banner and choices in pictures! Now following yoU!
I´m your new follower, thank yo for following me! Hope you enjoy my experiences as a western woman in Qatar , the spanish designer interviews and much more !!!
ReplyDeleteLove the hair styles you posted ; I used to have great hair but the water in this country is so salty and contains OIL! that is very very dry even using the best products ...
Me encanta tu blog! El mío es sobre moda ( promociono a diseñadores españoles en Qatar), estilo y cuento mi experiencia como mujer occidental en Qatar!. ¿ Te apetece que nos sigamos?

ReplyDeleteI use to have SUPER long hair back in high school. Then I chopped it all off and was in love with short hair...now that I'm older I'm trying to grow back my hair. I agree that there is nothing like polished well manicured long hair. I also do like the beach long hair look.

Thank you SO much for your sweet comment-you made my day :)
ReplyDeleteI love long, swooshy hair (a la Kate Middleton) and did at one point keep mine very long, but I am occasionally overtaken by the desire to chop it all off. And I would like curly hair too. I guess you always tend to want what you can't have.
I'm now following by the way xx
Aida, I found your blog via your comments on Lilly's Style and absolutely love it! I too am obsessed with long hair, and my obsession became even worse when my well meaning sister cut most of it off accidentally a few years ago. 0_o. I also adore the fact that this is a bilingual blog - I'm a Spanish speaker and have wanted to learn Portuguese for years. :)
ReplyDeleteAmazing hair! <3

ReplyDeletei am so glad you are writing in portuguese as well since i am now trying to learn some portuguese, but i always end up confusing them with my spanish. don't know why. guess because they are so similar.
