I used to have really long hair – so long I could sit on it. Then I lost my mind and had it chopped off. All in all, I cut off more than 3 feet of hair.*
The Rogue has long hair – I am very grateful that he has no urge to cut his hair any time soon. I love his dark brown curls more than I love my luggage – more than I love my laptop.
Even though my hair is now shoulder length, I still have a lot of it. It can take 15 minutes to blow dry mine and 30 minutes to blow dry the Rogue’s hair. Insane! The only positive is it does give the arms and shoulders a workout. Ouch!
We have decided to put the blow dryer away in the closet and let our hair air dry. This will save energy – and money in electricity plus hair care products. Score! I had considered giving the blow dryer away but it will come in handy this winter weatherizing the house.
* No I did not give it to Locks of Love. They would not have been able to use it for wigs as it had been colored with henna.

It’s rare for me to use a hair dryer… has been that way for years. The only time I’ve been using one lately (and I’ll likely have to use it tomorrow morning) is when I have my shower and then run to get out the door. I have to make sure my bangs are dry so that I can run the straightener through them, which takes like 3 minutes including warm up time for the straightener. Actually, when I got my bangs again last autumn I had to go searching for my hair dryer!
So, the moral of my ramblings is this: Do NOT throw away your hair dryer!! One never knows when you will need it.
PS.. your hair will thank you immensely now that you’ve stopped frying it with the heat of the dryer.
