I used to have really long hair, until one day it occurred to me that I was getting up each morning, taking it out of its French plait, brushing it and putting it straight back into a French plait. So I had it cut - I remember looking at the first chunk (about 30 cm) as it hit the floor and thinking "Shit, I've done it now!". But actually I've never looked back - now I can jump in the shower, wash it, towel it dry and go, and it looks great with no effort. It even looked reasonable encrusted with salt after five days at sea, which I think is a tribute to the skill of my hairdresser!
