Mollywog:

Andrew in Toronto:

↳ Yvang @12:20

Are you watching the World Cup? ♥ 12:26pm
Olleh:

↳ Kat in the chat @12:23

My peak badness hairwise was the 80s too. It went from feather cut to mullets for everyone ♥ 12:27pm
Olleh:

↳ chresti @12:23

That is very lucky. The cost of Women’s hair cuts are a sexist rip off I hear. My wife tells me horror stories. 🥺 ♥ 12:29pm
chresti: The worst haircut was early late seventies-early 80s by my
mother-in-law's stylist
I washed the gunk he put in my hair and chopped the bangs 🥺 ♥ 12:29pm
tom tom the pipers son: in college, in a moment of artistic clarity, cut off all my hair with scissors… and sat in front of a mirror and drew 20 or so schiele-esque self portraits… actually more kokoschka…it was a turning point in my art making 🥺 ♥ 12:30pm
Yvang:

↳ Andrew in Toronto @12:25

No! I haven't yet... Maybe I'll watch the finals. ♥ 12:31pm
Olleh:

↳ chresti @12:29

Ewww! What kind of gunk? Please don’t say motor oil   🥺 ♥ 12:31pm
Mollywog:

↳ Yvang @12:19

I had the typical big hair in the late 70s. I don't know why on earth it was like that, but it was.   12:31pm
Andrew in Toronto:

↳ Yvang @12:30

Good choice. ♥ 12:33pm
coelacanth∅: Hola Oleh and lickerettes ♥ 12:33pm

Olleh:

↳ coelacanth∅ @12:39

Hah! Do you remember the “ Hot comb?”   🥺 ♥ 12:41pm
Mollywog:

↳ coelacanth∅ @12:39

Yeah, I have very fine hair and a blow dryer produced instant frizz. Which wasn't what I had in mind when I got the perm! ♥ 12:42pm
coelacanth∅:

↳ Olleh @12:40

wow. . . vaguely? 🥺 ♥ 12:42pm
Yvang: I never shaved all my hair, my head is shaped like an egg. I look like a grey Bozo the Clown ...with a cap. ♥ 12:42pm
Olleh:

WR: Hello Olleh and folks. ♥ 12:48pm
Olleh:

↳ WR @12:46

Howdy WR! ♥ 12:50pm
coelacanth∅:

↳ Mollywog @12:41

i have fine hair as well, and with only a slight wave, and it dried fast; so i never saw the point of drying it faster. i had no desire to make it puffy! and anyway i don't think it would stay puffy for even an hour. ♥ 12:50pm
coelacanth∅:

↳ Song: "Family Man" by "Mike Oldfield"

Olleh:

I was surprised too. Pretty interesting concept album ♥ 12:54pm
Olleh:

↳ chresti @12:51

I can imagine. And relate. I was dumb and got convinced to get a “ guy”one. Story at next break. ♥ 12:54pm
coelacanth∅:

↳ Yvang @12:42

i never did either, even when i was in a punk band. my 2 closest punk allies - who'd grown their hair long after meeting long-haired me, got buzzcuts. but i refused to conform.   🥺 ♥ 12:56pm
Mollywog:

↳ chresti @12:51

Yes, a very BIG mistake! lol 🥺 ♥ 12:57pm
chresti:

↳ coelacanth∅ @12:54

I remember you said you had long hair when you were a kid, right?   🥺 ♥ 1:01pm
Mollywog: My hair is rather long now and people just don't "get" that it's easy to take care of, just pull it back into a low ponytail. And a part of the reason is also because when I was young, my mother wouldn't allow me to have long hair. 🥺 ♥ 1:06pm
tom tom the pipers son:

↳ Song: "The League of Bald-Headed Men" by "The Fall"

this song played in my head at a friend's wedding in the late 90’s to a famous writer who was bald except for trimmed hair on the sides and trimmed beard… 3-4 of the famous writer's friends had the same look… i guess it was the literary look   1:06pm

Hah! As long as it wasn’t reminiscent of that 007 vilian 🥺 ♥ 1:15pm
tom tom the pipers son:

↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:29

my motivation for going at my head with a pair of scissors was to eliminate the insulation between the inside of my head and the outside world   🥺 ♥ 1:16pm
Mollywog:

↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:15

This actually makes sort of sense. ♥ 1:16pm
Olleh:

coelacanth∅:

↳ chresti @12:57

i did, gradually. it took years of convincing! i had a cew cut until 1st or 2nd grade, then every school year it got longer and lonbger until by 10th grade it was 1/2way down my back. ♥ 1:45pm
coelacanth∅:

↳ Mollywog @1:01

yes it's not hard to take care of, but in my case at least, the longer it is the more tangled it gets - gets pulled out or broken off, and ultimately my hair gets thinner.
i keep it roughly to the base of my neck now.   🥺 ♥ 1:47pm
Mollywog:

↳ coelacanth∅ @1:45

Yes, there is that thinning effect for sure. ♥ 1:47pm
coelacanth∅:

↳ annag @1:07

Mollywog: Mostly it's not liking having someone behind me with sharp scissors! ♥ 1:50pm
Olleh:

↳ Mollywog @1:47

I often wonder about why they don’t autoclave for disinfection. Ewww ♥ 1:53pm
Olleh: The post covid barber I had for a haircut used worrisome funked up scissors. It may have been caked on dried blood. 🥺 ♥ 1:53pm
tom tom the pipers son:
