Having a very long hair has its benefits: some men find long hair very attractive! According to my experiences, I have found that women with longer hair have seem to be more alluring to men than those who have shorter hair (no offence to shorter-haired girls). We see on magazines, that many models with long shiny hair (even celebrities) grow their hair naturally or simply add extensions to look younger and more attractive!

That doesn't mean women with shorter hair are not sexy or attractive; on the contrary . . . I know a lot of women with short hair who are still as sexy as ever (like Sharon Stone used to be).

I've been growing my hair since I was around 6 or 7; I only cut it once and I've never done so again. I should be thanking my lucky stars for being blessed with long, dark and silky hair, but hey, like the rest of people . . . sometimes I do have a bad hair day as well!

Owning long hair does mean more problems and extra effort: washing and drying; and the biggest problem will be the styling and usage of styling products.

Excessive washing and drying your hair, and exposure to sun, can certainly weaken and damage your hair starting from its roots, down to the closing stage of the nice lovely hair ends, with the horrific scene of split ends!

Yes, I've been in that position! In fact, a couple of months back I have had every woman's nightmare: the split ends. In a mission to get rid of them (but without cutting a single inch of my precious hair), I looked for a decent hair shampoo that cleanses and moisturises, and which repairs split ends . . . and it wasn't easy to find one, believe me!

I've tried some very expensive brands; all of them gave the temporary shine and smoothness I wanted, but I never got the results that I wanted!

While I was looking for any fortifying shampoo (as usual!), I came across a Garnier kiosk where they had a special offer on their Garnier products (25% off the original price plus gifts and samples), so I bought a few things including Garnier Fructis Fortifying shampoo. Of course it's been on the market for ages; I have used it once or twice in England . . . having a closer look I saw the variety had a new claim . . . this time it was labelled '''LONG AND STRONG!'''

Wow! A shampoo designed especially for split, weak and long hair which could be applied frequently! I purchased it and brought it home with me; I had nothing to lose as I had bought it 'on the cheap' . . . maybe it would work for me!
