I forgot to enable the option to select multiple options in this poll (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/showthread.php?t=6737). Can a kind mod fix it for me?

Actually, no, I can't. It's not one of the edit options. :wail:

Go ahead and make a new poll, nightshade. I'll close the other one, and when the new one is up, I'll delete the old one. :flower:

I made the poll twice :o Can you delete the thread without the poll and the locked one?

THanks!

And when I pasted the title in the new one it now says "lightbulb washing poll"

Can you take out the "lightbulb"? Apparently the name of the little icon copied :rolleyes:

good cats, I'm just striking out on this effort, aren't I?

Well, you could very well be on to something here - I don't think there is no one that have polled how to best wahs lightbulbs.

I'm certainly going to try CWC on mine at home.

It should be all sorted out now. :flowers:

Not sure but I can't imagine it'd do your electrics any good XD

Who knows? It might give off a reddish hue. Wonder if a white lightbulb would work better than a yellow one.

I think Nightshade should add "lightbulb" to her strand test. :grin:

Heh. This has been posted here and there, I don't know where to give original credit.


How many forum members does it takes to change a light bulb?

1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed
14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently
7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs
1 to move it to the Lighting section
2 to argue then move it to the Electricals section
7 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs
5 to flame the spell checkers
3 to correct spelling/grammar flames
6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ... another 6 to condemn those 6 as stupid
2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp"
15 know-it-alls who claim they were in the industry, and that "light bulb" is perfectly correct
19 to post that this forum is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb forum
11 to defend the posting to this forum saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this forum
36 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty
7 to post URL's where one can see examples of different light bulbs
4 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URL's
3 to post about links they found from the URL's that are relevant to this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group
13 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too"
5 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy
4 to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?"

I belive that the white lightbulbs have the paint inside, thus not making any difference on the colour uptake.

I wonder if lightbulbs also get henna dryness, if henna plumps up lightbulbs and if henna bleaches them...?

No luck hennaing lightbulbs, but you can henna lamps ;)

You're missing proper punctuation (:p) is not the same as, say, a period, and you should never use a numeral inside a sentence. So "5" should be "five."

:twisted:

Although if the number is greater than ten (say, 583), it is acceptable to write the numerals rather than spelling out the longer number as a word. :twisted: :twisted:
