Tried a new hairstyle

It's raining so we're taking a break from project duck this afternoon. And so I I came up with a new hairstyle.

What do you think? 

Do you want a tutorial?

If so, what should I call the hairstyle?

Today's style has some extra thought behind it

My grandmother turned 80 this week, so we celebrated her today.
 
The clock that you see belonged to her mother. My grandmother gave it to me, because she says that I remind her so much of her mother, with my long hair and fondness for skirts and dresses. 
 
My great grandmother, kept her hair somewhere between classic and knee lenght most of her life, according to my mother and grandmother. She used to wear an edwardian hairstyle, with her hair "rolled over" a steel wire mold covered with fabric and a bun in the middle, or a French twist. The steelwire construction was made by her husband.
 
So I wore the clock today with eternal roll, that is similar to that hairstyle.
 
And this green dress that I bought for a friends wedding a few years ago. My grandmother was indeed happy that I wore the clock and talked about her mothers hair when she saw mine.

14 years of growing my hair

It's now 14 years since I had a side cut and decided that I wanted long hair.
 
 
I cut all of my hair to the same length (around 0,5 cm, so a little shorter than in the picture), but kept bangs to have less of a buzz cut. But since I hate having bangs, so I soon cut them off too.
 
 
Back then I used a really dull scissor to cut my hair and would continue to do so for years. My poor hair!
 
 
Don't ask me why, but I bleached my hair... Above is the "carrot phase".
 
 
 Blond and abused hair.
 
 
And of course, I soon missed having black hair.
 
I decided to for the last time in my life, bleach my hair, before dying it red and then go back to black once and for all. And thus the "carrot phase" again.
 
 
I also used to let a friend heat style my hair.
 
I really enjoyed red hair, but what a hassle to keep it red!
 
 
After I had to wash it with some special stuff before my elbow surgery, most of the dye washed out and I decided to let the bleached hair grow out and slowly cut it away before dying it black.
 
 
Before jumping in to the shower to do my first CO-wash.
 
 
This is what my natural hair color looked like after a year of CO-washing and when most of the bleach had been cut away.
 
 I decided to never again use chemical dyes again and wanted to be a henna head for a while, before starting the process of getting it black with indigo.
 
 
The process of getting it black. It took some time and effort, but it was worth it. Also, my hair finally started to get longer for real, now that I now longer mistreated it.
 
 
Black again.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Having kept up with some heavy S&D and minimal trims for years. My hemline was starting to fairytale.
 
My thin ends reached knee by the end of last year. I am now maintaining them (and keeping up with the S&D) until more thickness reaches the knees. Then I'll continue to grow with microtrims.
 
 
Having reached this length. I still want longer hair, but am in no hurry to get there. Patience truly is the key to growing long hair.
 
 
But it's also important to have fun! Have fun with your hair and treasure every milestone!

Although my hair would have been a lot longer if I would have taken as good care of it all the way, as I'm doing today. I have no regrets! I had a lot of fun trying different colors and doing stuff with my hair!
 
And now I am having fun with different updos and hair toys.
 
But also in the lovely community I've found of fellow hair interested people, in different corners on the internet, such as The Long Hair community, Instagram and HårIfokus.
