New York Newsday (April 2005) - Get Out Of Their Hair
"A flowing mane can look 'classy, dignified – regal, even,' notes Jennifer Bahney, founder of Longhairlovers.com. 'I’m sure there are many women out there who have been talked into short, trendy cuts because a stylist has told them to look their age,' writes Bahney on her Web log.

Treat Your Hair Right
"The biggest mistake I see is overprocessing," says Jennifer Bahney, a trichologist (hair and scalp specialist) and founder of longhairlovers.com. "The most important thing people who want beautiful hair can do is to treat it gently."
(p. 38) Don't Overshampoo. "For long hair, which tends to be more fragile at the ends, Bahney suggests shampooing just the scalp and letting the suds roll down."
Lansing State Journal (Sept. 18, 2003) - "To me, my hair looked flat, because the weight of its length pulled it so straight. I have less time to spend on it than I used to. Plus, it really hurts when you roll it up in the car window, which happened regularly. It was an annoyance rather than a pleasure.
"I wonder if the Seven Sutherland Sisters ever felt that way about their hair? I learned about them on www.longhairlovers.com, a Web site created by an Ohio woman with hair that falls below her waist. Its goal is to celebrate and promote good care for long hair."
The Edmonston Journal (Canada) (Jan. 28, 2003) - HAIR SMOOTHIES
"Longhairlovers.com offers this simple recipe for a hair smoothie at home: Puree 1 egg yolk, 1/4 cup coconut oil, 1/4 cup whole milk, 4 tbsp. aloe vera gel and 4 fresh strawberries in a blender. Apply mixture to towel-dried hair, beginning at roots and combing to ends. Place shower cap or warm towel over hair for 15 to 30 minutes. The eggs will coat the hair shaft, making it look thicker and healthier. The milk cleanses your hair while the oil, aloe, and strawberries moisturize and help boost shine. You may need to shampoo twice until water runs clear."
