The Random Hair Thoughts Megathread

Dear hair,

I'm not trimming to maintain you until you hit at least waist. You are not, repeat not, going to be maintained at BSL. So growing out your trim and going haywire along the hem within a few weeks isn't going to get you anywhere.

Except put up.

Yours, The person in charge of the scissors.

You ladies and gentlemen sure know how to cheer girl up!

I can't find the words to tell how much I appreciate all your encouraging kind words

I had a weak moment and gave in, now it's all better, thanks to you all. You made my day. Thank you.

Did a water rinse when I should've just shampood. Oh well! At least my scalp is happy, though my hair LOOKS like an oil slick haha.

Oh also, I used my new scalp scrubber. Didn't seem to pull out any hair! I'm going to continue using it, feels really nice.

My hair is kind of fluffy today for an unknown reason and it make my ends look thinner. Makes me want to trim, but I also want to get to BCL ASAP...

I really need a longer turbie twist that I don't have to fold my hair into

I suppose a plain microfiber towel would do the trick, but the turbies are just so convenient.

IIRC lapushka has a custom hair turban made out of sewn together towels, might see if she has any advice.

Oh my god... I just pulled enough of my hair out of my shower drain to make a small wig and it's *still* clogged! I fear no amount of draino can get through all my hair.

Eep, Draino is really rotten for drains! I recommend a Zip-it (I've bought them from Home Hardware) to get the bulk of it out and then a snake.

(And pick up a fine metal mesh sink strainer while you are at the hardware store, they really, really help for prevention!)
