The length is the same as I wore it before getting married but the style is different. Of course I was in the police reserve then and it had to either be pulled up in a bun (too thick for that) or kept above collar length. After marriage I let H talk me into growing it long as he prefers long hair. I would always wear it pulled back into a ponytail though as I don't really like it long. It also has a natural wave and could be really unruly and very untidy if I wore it down for long. I prefer the shorter cut - easier to look after and definitely much quicker to dry (don't need to blow dry any more).

I refuse to colour it any more as my hair doesn't seem to like colour - even the expensive salon colour. Dying it makes it really brittle and it falls out a lot more as well. Also, colour doesn't last more than 2 or 3 weeks at most before it looks like it needs doing again, which makes colouring a very expensive option.
