I have many Indian girl friends who let their hair grow down to their butts and even feet! When they want to cut it their parents and boyfriends freak out. Ive never asked them. I thought it would sound to ignorant. I think its really pretty on some and sometimes I wish I could grow my hair that long just to say I could. But otherwise I see it as becoming somewhat of a pest. I see them struggle to find new styles etc...

It is a cultural taboo. Indians think short hair equals mental illness (madness).

I know what you mean it is beautiful isn't it ?
It could be a cultural thing .
I do know other girls who have had their hair that long when I was growing up .
I had mine to my waist but my hair is much too thick to keep long
it feels like I have a winter coat on .
It is also too trouble to take care of .

constantly enable it dry for sure, do no longer use without postpone irons or curling irons. Oil it on a daily basis with coconut oil and don't wash it too often. keep it braided or in a bun (to guard it from harm) very almost continuously. Henna is stable for conditioning and strengthening, and provides a crimson tint to hair.

Probably because they can. If I could grow my hair that long, I would.
