Dangers Of Long Hair

[Dragon]

I just found this site and it’s very interesting

http://www.associatedcontent.com/art...long_hair.html

Does any one else have any others that hasn’t been mentioned on this list?

It's pretty funny when people ask me how do I take care of my hair and not get it caught.. it becomes second nature to watch where your hair goes after getting it pulled a few times. The author listed almost every excuse someone gives me to convince me to cut my hair.
Forgot to mention our own limbs though, can't tell you how many times during the summer my hair gets caught near my armpit area because I was sweating too much.
Thanks for the article, it was interesting.

That was pretty funny. I'm glad the article wasn't attacking long hair so much as describing what its challenges are.

One it missed: keep it away from your pets, specifically cats and rabbits. Cats will claw it and bunnies will chew it--and they cut hair faster than a scissor-happy stylist.

Interesting. I had never thought of the swimming drain one.

Articles like this makes me wonder how the author is able to tie her shoelaces or work a door knob.

What if *gasp* she wore some loose fitting clothes? Or left the house without a safety helmet and protective goggles on? She would probably break her neck!

No no, she'd never forget to wear her neck brace! (^(oo)~)

Hehe . . . I'm so easily amused (^(oo)^)

I must say she seems to have missed the most obvious ones (i.e. the ones that have happened to me ) - the air intake on the hair dryer, chair backs at the theatre, round barrel brushes, gum . . . younger siblings . . .

Well, I have to reluctantly give her credit for not having listed that you need to move your hair out of the way when you sit on the toilet.

You know, that’s where you with your hands take your hair and then move it away from the porcelain bowl. Of course you have to do it before sitting down so you don’t trap it under yourself. And then you can’t spread your legs and look down while you do your business because the hair will fall down there. Oh, and you have to make sure not to confuse your hair with the toilet paper, that is very important too!

Honestly though, I think it simply slipped her silly little mind to list that obvious danger

[eternallyverdan]

If you have the IQ of a rutabaga, I suppose that these things could be dangerous. Of course, if you're that stupid you probably aren't allowed out of your padded room.

I'm not saying these things never happen to smart people, I'm just saying that this list is pretty ridiculous.

I agree with Igor and eternallyverdan. It's not exactly rocket science to figure out that you have to watch where your hair goes

[akurah]

Ha, it sounds like she wrote it trying to convince herself not to grow her hair long...

Other things she missed:
Cleaning litterboxes
Sitting on it or others sitting on it
Getting trapped in bras (more danger to the hair than the person but annoying nonetheless)
Doorways
