An experiment....

I love the hair combs that have beaded elastic between them but unless you can find a cute Indian store, it's hard to find colors other than black, white, or beige (I don't know why Indian stores, they are the only place I've found them). So I bought some beads, elastic and combs and I decided to try it out. It's not as neat as I'd like but it looks pretty good in use.

I'm assuming this is entirely a girl thing, because I don't see the point whatsoever, and couldn't imagine taking the time to actually install the jewelery into my hair.

To be honest, I can't even imagine how that is put on a head! I live in Montana, and hair accessories like that are pretty uncommon, and usually only show up on college kids that come from out of state. I'm glad I'm a guy and only (occasionally) have to worry about if my hair is messy or not.

I love it!

I just finally found a pack of two of the combs, and yes, black & beige...I was wondering if you had tried making any yet, and here I look and you have. They seriously look so much better with your hair because your hair is so thick, but I did find a little hairpiece that looks similar to my hair, and with the combs, you cannot tell it isn't my hair. Actually I have quite a long piece of my own hair before my chemo and I was investigating how to weft it together into a usable piece. Were these beads from the beads you got last year?

Very cool! I've thought of trying one of those now that I can get my hand behind my head again.

I had short hair once, I found it harder to maintain than long. Constant brushing during the day to neaten it, constant trimming to keep it short- ugh. I can put long hair up in about 45 seconds and then I don't have to touch it again until bed. I may be the only human alive too lazy for short hair!

See you for jelly tonight! I don't have patients so I should be done one time!
