Hairy problems

by blayka @ 06/05/2008 - 09:05:04

I feel I should share with you some of the problems I've been having with my hair.

All in all, my hair is brown with a bit of red, curly and quite bushy. There's lots of it. Really lots. And don't say that is nice, because bushy hair can be just as much pain as not having any.

At least that's what I thought until it started falling out in massive quantities. I am talking fists full of hair every time I touched it. It was borderline scary. This has been going on since last fall.

I am ready for it to stop falling out, please. Also, I don't like it when it eventually does grow back, only to see that it has turned grey!

*Sigh* I guess this is what growing old feels like, when colouring your hair becomes a necessity, not just vanity or experimentation...

It's stress! Book another holiday!

I have loads of curly hair too and it SUCKS. Hmph.

Stress! I haven't thought of that. It makes perfect sense.

Judging from the state of my hair I need about ....eeeh.... two years of holidays. With full pay, of course. And if it starts right away I also wouldn't mind too much.

:)

I'm with Soy. Holiday!

Mind you, I'd say that in response to any post :)

I have decided "holiday" to be the only word in my vocabulary from now on. Until further notice.

Have a holiday to Australia. That way you will be stress free, and hanging upside down for two weeks will make the blood rush to your head, stimulating hair growth!

Wait till I explain to my hubby he needs to invest about 20.000 euros into an extravagant Australian holiday, which in fact is not a holiday but a beauty treatment for my hear.

He will love me even more.

Shave yerr head, it's just great :D

Know what you mean about curly hair - sucks big time, mine was 2 feet long and you can imagine the tangles and shit that got into that.
There was one point in time when I had a girlfriend (doesn't happen much: I'm crazy, women are all crazy, it's like One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest every time I acquire one), and from freshly showered and brushed I actually got a goddamned full on dreadlock from...well, from a day and a half being spent roughly horizontal :D

Shaved off full dreads in november and it felt like such a weight - figuratively too - was gone, not best for ladies unless you're travelling in Asia though; maybe you could try some offbeat hairstyles you never tried before seeing as you might be dying it all ways anyway?

Mohican? :>

Sometimes my hairstyle already looks a bit Mohican. Don't ask me how, it's a gift.

Considering the fact that I am trying to pass as a respectable suburban wife and mother (ahem), shaving my head might be a touch on the extreme.

Do you have any suburbany-desperate-housewifey ideas? Apart from wearing a scarf at all times, that is.

Yeah I know, I thought it'd be real funny if you just did though so I could hear how the hubby and kids reacted :D

Cut it to chin length, it layered longer to the back, but clumped into stalks or almost spikes flowing backwards and down; and dye it pure white.

You'll look a little like an older, respectable character from one of the anime or Manga films, your kids will think it's cool, it's totally unique, any grey hairs will be no problem and as it's so thick and curly it'll clump together just great - this will involve straightening it twice a week and a good deal of bravado :D but you'll have the coolest hairdo in town, AND still look a respectable wife and mother.

Plus the other kids at your one's school will be scarde shitless of ya - if they get any crap from anyone they can go around telling people you have "undefendable attack learned from the great white cloud master at Shaolin, with lightning beam and groundshatterer and it is utterly impossible to resist, haha!" and shit like that :D

Think Halle Berrys's `storm` character from X-Men, but longer and spikier and flowing back and down (but still a bit spiked all over).
Listening to me - seriously - may be a dangerous thing however ;)

Do not worry. I know better than to take you seriously.

Having said that, I will also print out the above and take it to my hairdresser's. The benefits of looking scary you so generously laid out seem too tempting to resist :)

I am saying something:
I went to see him last week. He says he spent a week in London with the two Canadians. Remember them? Boy, do I have stories for you...

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me... Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me... Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me... Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me... Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me... Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me... Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me... Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me... Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me... (Really I can keep this up all day - ok *whisper*)

Oh, please, stop! You'll get me in trouble at work with all this shouting :)

The story is so much fun that I will save it for our little beach retreat, when I will take time and tell it with gusto.

I just love to torture you :D

Oh dear hair falling out sounds very boring indeed I would not like that at all...are you very worried or something?

blaykablayka [Member]

I was quite worried for the last six months, as I was not sure I would be able to finish my studies.

Now that I know I can (and did, hehe) the hair situation is a bit better. Still, the grey hair... I bet you are the only mammal I know that looks good in grey fur!

I would look good in any colour fur I reckon although I always say mine is rabbity beige :¬D My friend Helen says that there is someone called George Clooney who looks good in grey fur too

Oh, yes! She is very right. His fur is very appealing, indeed :)
