The Ten Commandments

[Honey Vibe]

As the winter drags on, perhaps we should reaffirm our commitment to our hair goals by obeying our personalized 10 Hair Commandments! This helps me keep up my regime, and it may give info to others too.

Honey Vibe's 10 Hair Commandments

1. Thou shalt not have any other priorities before hair growth.
2. Thou shalt not sleep on thy hair.
3. Thou shalt cover thy hair every night.
4. Thou shalt not let a hair on thine head become dry.
5. Thou shalt not use synthetics.
6. Thou shalt protect thine head from the winter climate.
7. Thou shalt be patient, but
8. Thou shalt be unrealistic.
9. Thou shalt put shea butter on thy head before going to bed.
10. Thou shalt always blather at Long Hair Forums!

This is too funny! You can actually print out your own commandments, and put them somewhere you'll always notice them! /images/graemlins/grin.gif
