I've always had long hair because I think I look better with it. And you can do so much with long hair. It should itch when it's long. And ofcourse a daily shampoo is best. I just shampoo mine really fast, if I have time I also condition. From time to time I get hot oil or henna wax to repair my damaged hair. Most of the time, I even iron it to straighten.

Thanks for replying.But ironing your hair spoils it.So watch out the next you do it.

I have long blonde hair down to my waist. I wash it every other day. I let it dry naturally, so that takes the better part of a day. If the hair gets sticky and itchy, maybe all the shampoo wasn't washed out. I use a conditioner on mine after I shampoo it as that it stays soft and silky and managable.

I have long hair and I don't get itchy or sticky (?). I don't wash it everyday. When I do wash it, I use shampoo and conditioner. During the day, I usually have it up in a pony tail or a bun. I love having long hair.

It's really not hard to take care of long hair. I wash my hair every 2-3 days. I've try before to do it everyday but my hair wasnt beautiful after that. Also I use a conditionner. I go cut my hair twice a year (they say it suppose to be after 3 month, but I have no money for that) and it help.

I have had long hair forever, I absolutely love it. Its hard to manage yeah you had to tend to it a lot, but it doesn't bother me. I have certain kinds of shampoos and conditioners that I use to take car of it, to keep it from drying out and getting split ends. And yes like a person said before me you have to take care of your scalp also, when washing your hair you have to pay special attention to it, thats why it would get itchy.

Being a teenager it's even harder for me to keep my hair nice. But I couldn't imagine cutting it, I like it when it's well kept. And I always regretted cutting an inch off of one side of my hair when I was little. It gets exceptionally soft..since I have been taking fairly well good care of it lately it's been looking much better.
I wash it everyday, sometimes I'll skip a day if it honestly doesn't need it. I'll use those two in one type shampoos with conditioner in it. I try to keep it brushed as well, since the more knots or dirt you have in it the more it breaks and the shorter it can get.

Ladies (esp. men with long hair)deserve admiration..lol
Its really a boring job to manage long hairs...frequent washing, oiling..controlling dandruff..so much.
Most of all, certainly they will not get set properly when u r in hurry...demand for time always.
But, still I love long hairs...(not of men).

My partner has long hair, it falls almost to his waist. He washes it every couple of days and uses a conditioner too. I also have long hair and, like him, I wash it every couple of days and use conditioner. My guy has his hair in a pony tail when he is at work, and I also tend to keep min in a tail when I'm busy. It's not difficult to keep long hair looking good, it just means taking a little more time with it
