My hair is just as long as Sakura's hair. I tie it up back all the time to get it off my face. You may call me crazy. I could have just chopped it all off and made it easy for myself to comb and take care of. But just for the 10% or less time I don't tie it back, I just kept it long. If I cut it sh...

I don't find anything wrong with having long hair. Sakura likes long hair probably. (Shinohara Ryoko seems to like long hair. I've never seen her cut it) The most important thing is how she keeps it. Previously she just ties it up messily. Now it looks tidy, combed and tied up in a pony tail. I don...
