Back when I was considerably younger, I wore my hair in a ponytail half way down my back. I kept it neat. Some of my fondest memories of it was when my daughter would be in my arms, with her arms around my neck playing with my ponytail. I always imagined i'd be an old dude with a kool gray haired ponytail. Yes I have gray hair, earned every one of them, but can't stand the long hair now, go figure.
