Would you be offended if.....

[bludacious]

...you had a dandruff problem and a good friend bought you a hair products care package for your birthday? Say Nexxus Dandrrest shampoo and a few other hair products to go along with it (A hair care package basket)

Or, would you take it as a friend who is looking out?

 

[carmend]

I would see it as looking out... If I were the gift giver I would probably either verbally or in a card tell the friend why I was giving the gift

i don't think so ... if they told me first and then said sweetly.... I bought you this .. LOL


But I'm not sure if that should be a birthday gift ( might get offened) .... unless they are into hair care stuff...

 

[Mitre]

Yes i would be offended that is like buying me toothpaste because my mouth....... Ask her first

 

[FashionistaNY]

I have a dandruff problem and yes I would be offended. Why would you wait until my b-day to give me something like that as if it's a joke or something.

I don't know how to explain it maybe you understand what I'm trying to say lol

 

[carmend]

I agree w/those that have said they I may not give it as a birthday gift. I should have included that in the original response... But I think it is a nice gift/gesture to look out for a friend in case they dont alreay know its a problem...

A friend(Co-worker) of mine received some type of hair care package for her birthday(co-worker's throwing birthday party). She has a dandruff package. She had a certain look on her face as if, "What are you trying to say?" I could tell her feeling were hurt. She asked me should she offended or not? By me knowing she has a dandruff problem, I didn't know how to answer her! I didn't want to be a mess starter and say, "Girl, I would be offended by that!"

It depends on how cool we are. Unless we have talked about this beforehand, then she might get the stink eye from me.

Knowing the people I hang out with, I would be greatful that they were trying to keep me looking my best!

I would only give it to her when we were alone ( no embrassment )

I think she was upset because the co-worker who gave it to her is also a friend outside of work. I think if she had gave it to her outside of work, she would have felt better. I just didn't know what to say to her when she asked if I would have been offended. I am friends with them both!

Maybe it would have been better if she made it part of a sap package instead.
Butter her up by saying the whole line was a fantastic way to unwind. You truly do need to know how your friends would react to things and also know how to master timing!

 

[balisi]

I would have been more embarrassed than offended if such a gift were given to me at my birthday bash and I opened the gifts in the presence of others. It would also depend on how tight our friendship is.

 

[sillygurl18]

It depends. I would get offended if it was some Head and Shoulders LoL. Now if I had already talked about the dandruff problem and it was some product that I really wanted to try but didn't want to spend the money on it I would think she were trying to help.

 

[pink_flower]

It depends. I would get offended if it was some Head and Shoulders LoL.

LMAO! That would be awful if someone did that

Anyways I would be offended. I think most hygiene issues are too delicate to mention unless you are a close friend. Even then its touchy.

OT: But it baffles me when people dont notice these thing about themselves..bad breath, dandruff, crusty lips etc etc..i dunno.

Personally, I wouldn't be offended at all. In fact I would see it as a friend wanting the best for me. Not to talk of getting "good quality" products for free, therefore saving my own pockets.

Besides I love trying out new bodycare and hair products, personally I would be over the moon.

ETA: I would ask my friend if they were trying to tell me something (in a joking fashion of course)

 

[SUPER SWEET]

I dont think I would be offended at all. But I'm not really thin skinned either. So ladies I will accept any haircare baskets you would like to send me. I have fine hair =...
