well, that's a different ponytail than it was 8 months ago

 

Right?

Longer.
Darker (yes, that's my natural/grown out color).
Still just as messy.

When you don't do anything to it for 8 months, I guess that's what happens!

Oh, and if you're wondering how I got those fun waves... they are 2nd day Friar Tuck curls.
