You guys are so kind! Yeah, it's taken me awhile to grow my hair back out. I had it really long for almost 23 years, and, got it cut short, had it short for a few years, and, now, I've been growing it out for about a year. I think two or three more inches and I'll be done. I have a great hair stylist! and, a fabulous flat iron! And, OMG, yeah, the glasses weren't cheap. I did ok, though. I got two pairs. the other has metal frames. They are a little more subtle. I've worn them once. Anyway, I'm glad I posted the pics, though, and, heard more positive feedback about the glasses. it's been such a new experience.
