hahaha me too!

 

edit: pics. 

 

 

 

My hair is dry, but franny says that's because I should have used oil + light mousse on my wet head instead of spray leave-in conditioner, and then oil after I plopped.

Seriously though, Cross CuT is right. Friction, sure, but surfactants, hardcore.

:idontknow: I don't need to be told how soap works. I flooping make it.

But why do we need to get everything off? Isn't part of what we wash away with shampoo the natural oils that are there to protect our hair? And don't we end up producing more oils to make up for those stripped away? And further, don't many people use products to imitate what the oils would naturally do if we didn't strip them away? (And for the record, I use shampoo)

No one ever trusts the scientists :idontknow:

Or, they have no issue with the science, but don't like what the result does to their hair.
Or, they don't trust the company paying the scientists.
:rolleyes:

I just felt that was appropriate.

I agree, pretty much all of the people I know who work on products like shampoo would definitely put harmful things in there if someone paid them to. Everyone has got their price, especially scientists.

O RLY? That's cool, do you make soap at the professional level, or on the at home for funsies level? Either way that's cool!

Noooooooooo, I said oil + mousse on wet hair going into the plop. Nothing after. NO TOUCHY.

Who wants to talk about failures? Here's a fun one:

 

 

I was but a fourteen year old fetus during this photo. Uncombed, hadn't been washed for God knows how long, it's really just painful too look at, really. You can see the grease just looking at it:

Ha! (Killer shirt.)

 

You have nice hair! I'm glad you wash it with some regularity. ;)

My brother has hair like Harry Stiles..

 

 

My mother saw a pic of HS and thought it was my brother. :|

Thanks! I really loved classic rock at the time. I still do, I just don't listen to it as much. I love the Saint Benedict cross right over it, though. :P

 

And thanks! That's actually what the lady that cut my hair told me last time. It's really thick and fluffy, and it's super soft. I like it, but it sure is a pain in the Kansas wind. When I walk around town my hair is usually blowing straight back like I'm in an open cockpit of a plane. :hehe:

 

Another hair failure from that general time period (I really liked AC/DC):

 

 

 

I like how my hair curls to the center. :P

[franciscanheart]

I should mention that in the pictures I posted of me with shorter hair, I used absolutely no product post-shower and was still using "typical" shampoo and conditioner.

 

 

As you were.

Real windblown hair is no where near as sexy as hollywood makes it seem. lol.

It's really not. :P Though I like to think of the Gangnam Style video and walk like that for fun. What's worse is as you can see I comb my hair to the side, so the wind sometimes blows it the other way.

Harry Styles has nice looking hair, as it resembles mine, thank you very much!

 

And hey, I have Eric Forman hair, so there's nothing to be sad about.
