Both of them must have made a pact, forget the old feudal custom, and permed their hair at about the same time.<br /><br />When i asked her why, I cried and said I like her with her bun, she said I won't understand. she had to groom her long hair every evening and morning. In the end, I think she was thinning, so she took the plunge, and cut the hair she had for 70 plus years. All the freedom!!!Ann, Chen Jie Xue 陈洁雪https://www.blogger.com/profile/04399207312968010460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-768256566462414032.post-55414118626910775412011-09-10T18:35:32.387+12:002011-09-10T18:35:32.387+12:00Beautiful rainbow.
