LONG HAIR, DON’T care. Except when all this stuff happens.

1. You’re constantly being tickled by stray hairs falling on your arms

8. The perfect bobbin doesn’t exist

The struggle is real...it may not be a 'world peace' kind of problem but it is real. That pony has to hold when Im working hard. #marathonrunner #longhair #runner #run #running #runnerproblems #beauty #longhairproblems #soberrunner Source: christadavidson

9. Don’t get started on bobby pins

Do they get eaten by your hair or what’s the deal?

Yep. Never fails. Where do they all go?!?!? Source: sarahgrahamfit

10. You’re literally always to blame for the blocked shower

So I LOVE that my hair is getting long again...but it's causing my household to go through A LOT of Drano, straining the pocketbook as well the pipes (liquid plumber's not so great for plumbing). I'm hoping this brilliant idea I have will be a cost effective solution! #LongHairProblems #ImAGenius Source: jenread326

11. It’s just constantly getting in the way

12. And not to mention that it takes at least 20 hours to dry

And that’s using a hairdryer…
