You know you are obsessed with hair when.......

[Lucia]

here's mine:

When you see someone with shoulder, BS, Waist or below waist lengths and ask yourself is my hair that long or calculating how many months you have until your hair gets that long.

You know which products are mostly synthetic, 50%synthetic and 50% natural and mostly natural.

You can tell the difference between a good weave and "someones real hair" while driving without stopping or slowing down.

You buy hair products for family members even if they don't ask 'cause you know what they need. Acting slick like: I was at the beauty supply getting some of this for myself and I thought you might like this

truth: you see their hair problems and try force feed them products

Stormy we could be sisters.... I can't walk past a mirror without checking out my hair either.

Ok, you're obsessed with hair when...
-you don't like people to hug you for fear that they will tug your hair and cause breakage

-you will NOT go to sleep without wrapping your hair up
-you worry about your hair touching your clothing if the material is not smooth
- you will not take pictures if you think your hair doesn't look good

- your husband KNOWS not to touch your 'good' products for fear it will lead to his early demise
-when you can't wait to get some down time at work in order to read and post on LHCF

Re: You know you are obsessed with hair when......

Here are mine. I'm a little embarassed.

1. Taking bathroom breaks every 2 hours or so, and taking my little mirror with me so that I can look at the back of my head in the bathroom's mirror, just to make sure it looks long or make sure that everything is in place.

2. Getting goosebumps about going to the beauty supply store later that day.

3. Sitting in church, instead of focusing on the Word, planning how I'm going to wear my hair for the week and for next Sunday.

4. Having fantasies that involve my hair.

5. Saying negative things about my hair, just to fish for compliments. (I'm so guilty)

6. Turning my friends into hair fanatics, because I'm always constantly talking about hair.

7. Practically living at this board, while I am at work all day.

8. Having withdrawals after 5 minutes when the board shuts down for whatever reason.

9. Rather buy hair products than to loan the money to my mother who could use it for something more important, like the rent.

10. Start talking about how I want to cut my hair to a friend of mine, who I know is jealous of my hair, just to psych her up, but knowing good and well I would never cut my hair.

I think it's time to say a prayer.

sassygirl,

you are a trip!

but it does seem like it would be good when your hair is in need of some extra protein.

Re: You know you are obsessed with hair when......

- you log on to LHCF before logging into your work database.
- you go window shopping at the beauty supply a couple of
days before payday.
- you find a hair in your comb and you save it to show to
your stylist so she can tell you whether it's your hair or
hair from the phonytail.
- women with long hair catch your eye faster than a fine man.

Re: You know you are obsessed with hair when......

Let me just add....

You RUSH to Walgreens during your break to look for the LUSH that all the women have been raving about... pick up the VIVE conditioner instead... Log back into the room and realize it's L'Oreal Unfrizz that you needed....then wonder if you'll get in trouble if you go back to Walgreens for a mini-run!!!

Re: You know you are obsessed with hair when......

I don't consider myself really obsessed. But if my boyfriend was on the computer looking at anything this much, I would probably have a problem with it. Also, I found this board in Nov of 2002, prior to that I had no hair care regime. When I think back on those days of ignorance I just cringe.

Re: You know you are obsessed with hair when......

you spend more on hair care products in 3 weeks than you do on rent every month.

Your home computer breaks down on Friday and you come back to the office just to check the LHCF.

You come in on Saturday just to check the LHCF.

You are in the car on Sunday but divert yoursef to Hollywood Video. You are not going to check the board. You are going to rent a movie and go home and stop thinking about hair. BUT there is a GNC right next to the video store and YES you go in and buy HAIR VITAMINS
