Everyone Should Listen To Their Hairdresser.
 

Hi -

I don't usually post over here,
but wanted to impose briefly
(well. 'briefly' ... for *me* that is)

and share with you something my hairdresser told me about
when I had my 6/week mental health appointment
last week.

She told me
that when she went for some phase or other
of her final testing for liscensing...

this woman had volunteered to get her hair done
as part of the testing for another person.

The soon - to be - hairdresser
got all the chemicals on the lady's hair

and in about five minutes the woman's HAIR STARTED SMOKING!!

apparently a woman sitting next to her noticed it!

So needless to say -
everyone EVERYONE rushed around
hosing the woman's head off
trying to neutralize the chemicals
on the woman's head
to save her hair ....

it turned out

the woman was on METH
and was a cocaine addict as well.

This wasn't a woman who looked ...

"just in off the street"

she drives a high priced car
has a big house
all the things that
you aren't exactly looking for
when someone says there's
a meth addict in the room.

She's actually a somewhat 'public' figure
and now sports and extremely short haircut.

My hairdresser told me
that even antibiotics come out in the hair
for weeks after you've taken them
because I'd asked about why *my* hair
had suddenly become so 'tame'
when it's USUALLY very wavy and
not manageable at all.

It was the antibiotics.

and if you
(not YOU you, the metaphorical 'you')
don't tell your hairdresser the TRUTH
about what you've been ingesting ....

your hair will catch on fire!


Word - to the wise, I suppose!

Yet another way to 'smoke out' if we're being lied to?


:rotfxko

Liar, Liar, hair on fire!!! :lmao

Oh my! I've had my hair turn strange colours sometimes, but gotta admit, it never smoked.

Thanks for my smile today...and maybe some good advice too.

Hugs

Wow. One more reason to just say no!

Thats a good story- pretty shocking tho. can you imagine?

I went to cosmetology school years ago, and we were taught not to give a perm to anyone with hair colors like "Loving Care" , for they interact with the perm solution, causing bad colors.

One day, a little old lady with dark dark hair wanted a perm. I asked her if she had that sort of hair color in her hair, explaining the consequences if she did, and she said "Oh no honey, go ahead and give me my perm, it is ok."

Well I did, and her hair turned army green! I was just sick, and as I worked with it, I got more anxious, not knowing what to do. The lady did not seem to notice, and I thought maybe her eyesight was not that good. I excused myself for a moment, and got my instructor. She took one look, and looked at me, and quickly walked away, with an apologetic look. Well, what could I do? I styled her hair, nearly ready to faint from this disaster, and so I said something like " You might notice a bit of an off color, a bit of a greenish tint ( boy that was an understatement). She smiled and said, " Oh that is ok honey, it happens all the time".

Liar, Liar, hair on fire- that is hilarious Ann:rotfxko

Wow I needed that, it was a crazy story.:lmao

Hair can tell many a story I guess!

I was out with a male friend a few weeks back and he noticed this girl's hair, his comment to me was "She has Party Hair" What I said, he said ya, you can tell she is a party girl by her hair, has this kind of fuzziness to it.

Did ya mean me,Anvilhead?

If so, I wish I had one:)
I can't tell a joke tho. Ruin them every time.

Nice! Well, that's one way to finally make the decision to get a short haircut!! :burns

Well, your story was not what I was expecting, LOL! Yikes!

When I told my hairstylist that I had filed for a legal separation and we were separated, she said "it's about time!". We have known each other for years and she used to cut AH's hair...crazy how others see things.

Now, if only I could move to the next step I'd be doing good....ugh.
