You know you're DEDICATED to your hair when...

[Neith]

The things mentioned in this thread are TRUE real life happenings... I may be nuts



1) You walk half a mile (both ways) to the BSS just so that you'd have that little extra money to buy ONE extra product.

2) You wake up yourself all hours of the morning to do your hair.

3) You walk half a mile (both ways) JUST to get the ingredients of a product so you can decide if you're going to purchase it at a later date :blush3:

4) You wash, DC and rollerset your hair DURING A BLACKOUT by candlelight with hot towels for heat. (the blackout of 2003, that what I was doing yall)

5) Your BF breaks down crying and you console him... but you still wouldn't rinse out your dc or take off your plastic cap to do it.

6) You freak THE HELL (just one level below cursing her out) out when your mama mistakenly sprays your hair with a little perfume, then run and wash and deep condition and restyle your hair.


Lawd... I'm sick This looks even worse written down.

 

[JustKiya]

You hardcore, sis.

 

[cocoaluv]

1. Your brother needs you to help him fill out the financial aid forms for school and you are pissed because he is interupting your MT scalp massage.
   
2. Your mom wants you to show her STEP BY STEP how to take her new contact lenses on her own and you are pissed because you just want her to hurry up and let you snatch them out real quick so you can go back and finish DC'ing under your hooded dryer
   

I really need to move out these people are messing up my hair care schedule

 

[gymfreak336]

You decline dinner dates just to deep condition your hair.

You schedule your school classes around having enough time to wash and rollerset atleast one weekday morning.

You tell yourself "its for my hair" when eating veggies you don't even like

 

[Miamori]

- You and SO are gettin it on and your blackberry vibrates twice, which means a text, Facebook notification, or email, and you hit the brakes (in spite of being physically restrained) to reach over and CHECK it because you are thinking it might be an email, in which case it could be a Fotki notification, or something from a hair board.

[BostonMaria]

- When I laugh at the idea of spending more than $5 for a sandwich (I'd rather starve if I have to pay more!) but don't think twice about dishing up $28 for some product specificially made for horses

- When I almost throw up when I open the bathroom door and find my 11 yr old stepdaughter using my expensive products.

- I won't wake up at 5:30am to go to the gym, but I sure as hell will do it to wash my hair!

You plan, before you even GO on vacation, to go to a store not in your area specifically to get conditioner (Trader Joe's, here I come!!!!!!)

 

[Eisani]

Totally!! Whenever I go out of town, I hit all stores, including their Family Dollar just to see if they have something that's not available in my area. I also check off the wall markets hoping to find a discontinued product.

[Bint Yusef]

When your DH asks how the "hairboard ladies" are doing

When you dont eat out for a week to buy a product that is out of your budget

Whenever you go to a new town you have to visit their BSS to see if they have products yours back home doesnt

Off Topic: MY LORD, look at that beautiful fro!!!!!!!!!!!!!
