Girlssss, did you see Demi Moore's hair at the Met Gala?! I about died when I saw how long it was. She already has really long locks but then she went and added extensions to take it all the way down past her knees. Can you even imagine how long that must take to brush out?
Now listen, knee-length hair is definitely not practical for everyday wear. Just thinking about washing and styling all that makes me tired! But what Demi proved is that you can totally rock long hair even as you get older. So many people think you need to chop it all off once you hit a certain age but that's just not true if you take good care of it.
Don't get me wrong, long hair does require more maintenance the older you get. Our hair doesn't stay as thick and lush as when we were younger. But there are things you can do to help it out. I always say your hair is like your skin - you gotta nourish it from the inside and out. Make sure you're eating proteins, vitamins, and all that good stuff.
And you definitely need to baby your strands. Deep condition like it's your job, girl! Massage treatments into the scalp too for extra TLC. Use protectant sprays before any heat too so you don't damage it. Oh, and regular trims to get rid of those split ends. No one wants their hair looking raggedy!
As long as you embrace the extra care that long hair demands, don't let anyone tell you to cut it off just cause you're "getting older." Demi is out here proving age is nothing but a number when it comes to rocking gorgeous, flowing locks. Get you some extensions, ladies, and flaunt that hair with confidence!
