Me with gorgeously long locks |
1. Long hair is an excellent insulator.
Seriously. My major form of warming up in winter is letting my hair down. It's the only form of fur I have, and a thick layer of it covers my head, neck, and shoulders, creating the optimum cold weather gear.
2. Long hair attracts friends.
and not turn it into something like this:
Long hair is the ultimate toy. You can twist it, braid it, and if it's long enough, put the tip of it over your lip and make a mustache. This makes a good quality in a friend, because a friend with long hair will let you mess with it as long as you please, which is a very diverting exercise. Obviously there must be a subconscious pull to befriend those fortunates with long hair, or at least to befriend their hair.
3. Instant Katniss Costume
Following along the braid theme, long hair gives you an instant Katniss Everdeen costume. It's a good fallback if you're invited to a costume party or are out of ideas for Halloween. It's easy, and everyone should be able to recognize you unless you live under rock or some variation thereof.
4. Pocahontas' Self-Confidence
Every time the wind blows, my hair does this:
It makes me feel like a goddess. The feel of the wind whipping back my hair from my face is exhilarating, and makes me feel like I'm riding a horse into the sunset of some amazing mythical land.
5. Stealth Device
Forget Cold War planes invisible to radar, long hair is surely the greatest stealth device ever in existence. Whenever I want to just shut out the world or hide my face when I don't feel like being in view, I can just casually flip my hair so that it creates a stylish shield in front of my face.
Or I can listen to my iPod undetected. When would I want to do this, you may ask. But are there ever times where your just talking to someone you really don't want to be talking to, or listening to someone else's bad music on a road trip? Simply hide earbuds in the depths of the long cascades of your hair. Problem solved.
