I have always had really long hair, but I never know what to do with it.

I can do simple styles and do a few basic things, but since I don't know how to style it I have become so frustrated with my hair that I really want to cut it.


Any thoughts?

can I see a picture? long hair is wonderful, have you tried crazy messy buns, or braids? I've had short hair for a very long time and I really hope to have it grow long again so I can do things with it.

Your hair is beautiful and long. To emphasis your wave and curl try Hair Rules Haircare products. It will tame the puffiness in humid air and give a natural feel. Amazing products line that I use in the summer to keep my hair curly.

i would not cut THAT hair off. It is amazing!!! Are there any short hair masterclasses you could take in your area so you can learn more styles if thats what frustrates you. Sometimes award winning hairstylists will work with you for a day for a fee in order to teach you more styles you can work with your hair. I would look at those options.

Also youtube?

judging by its apparent thickness cutting it short would be bad and possibly an uncontrolable beast.  I would suggest not
