I want my long hair back!!!!

I'm going to be growing out my hair. I've decided that i'm tired of the mom cut. My hair is going to look crappy for a long time because of this but I must resist the urge to chop it all off. The end result will be worth it. Hopefully it won't take a yr to grow it out. I have a feeling it will though. So in the meantime, please excuse my helmet hair.
