I love long hair (I'm growing mine back - it's just about down to my shoulders yet) and long dresses (I always wear ankle-length kaftans nowadays). The only problem I have with long hair is if you swim in a chlorinated pool every day it gets "rough" and needs extra care. I often wear wigs (pink, cyan, red, green) even to go to tescos in the morning (they've got used to me turning up in full drag now, lol, so has Aldi - in the summer I shall also take another shower just before I go - see my story about going to Aldi all wet, lol). Unfortunately my local public pool doesnt allow "long and flowing clothing" (it might stumble other swimmers in the lane) or of course wigs or shoes (hygiene) but I do always swim in a long sleeved top (permissible in pool rules) and sometimes lycra leggings (also permissible in pool rules). I do swim in kaftan/beads/shoulder bag/shoes/etc in the river or sea of course :) I even swum in a wedding dress once (at Wavelengths, with permission). Always fill your day with wonderful things :) :)

I agree with the long hair, but not the dresses...Wet dresses look amazing wet, as they hug the persons body and show all the "gloss" of the water.

Long hair and dresses

It’s funny how your perspectives change over the years, but sometimes you can’t settle on a viewpoint.

For some time I had this particular distaste for dresses. I don’t know for sure why, but I think the restriction of some forms of dress on leg movement troubled me. Whether that was because it impedes you running from danger, or from running in fun, I can no longer say.

Long hair is the one that confuses me more. Society in general across the world broadly holds that if you are male you should have short hair (in in past decades, as an adult, flattened into a solid heap of grease) and if you are female, long hair.

However! If you want to be a professional woman, kiss goodbye to long hair!

Long hair is better for wetlook of course, but hair length puzzles me. Long hair is a nuisance and even a hazard. Think of how often people with long hair (male and female alike) are seen fighting its intrusion onto their face, such as in televised interviews.

I’m torn between the beauty of long hair and its complete impracticality. The idea that it’s unprofessional (albeit a growingly dated notion) adds to the confusion.

See, if I was not interested in wetlook, short hair on a woman would be the obvious choice, except for the fact that I have long hair myself (if only because I have no idea what else I am supposed to do with hair, as mine is ridiculously stubborn when short and I hate goop). Sadly my hair no longer has that “Pantene” look, as it inexorably greys and loses vitality.

Lots of women choose to keep their hair long, so clearly it’s not completely intolerable, and I’m more physically sensitive than most. I guess women have their own trade-offs, and for us, we want that long hair for its wet goodness!

Dresses I now do like, but sadly they are never as clingy as I wish they were :(
