I hate my hair
November 21st, 2003 at 12:00 amIn light of the trick that was recently played on me, I have only this to say to Stan. =)
Aaron brought up an excellent point the other day. My hair does look funny when it grows out. The back gets kinda curly and the front just goes every which-a-way. It looks great after I get out of the shower when I just run the towel through it once and leave it be, all wet and sticking up everywhere.
And it’s killing me. Not because it is long and has a mind of its own. Hell, that’s what I like about it, it reflects my personality. But the reason I have to shower all the time is because it gets greasy. Very greasy. And I’m not talking shower once a day here. I’m talking, I need a shower ever freaking 12 hours to keep it looking half-way decent. But that isn’t even the worse part. I mentioned before that I only run the towel through it once and while that does produce the effect that I’m going for, I don’t think I’d be able to run it through much more if I even wanted to. You see, men in my family go bald kinda early. And I am no different. I shed. I shed worse then a dog, worse then a girl, worse then…well, worse then anything else I can think of. My pillowcase is also litered with hair when I wake up. Whenever somebody tells me that I woke up on the wrong side of the bed, I just tell them “No, I just woke up in a pile of my own hair asshole.” That never seems to change their initial opinion about me, but whatever.
I have been looking forward to Winter for a long time because I love cold weather. Well, I love it for about a month and them I’m sick of it, but that’s beside the point. The point is that I have been looking forward to Winter for a reason beyond the cold weather this year. You see, I halted the shaving of my head last February as a present to Jess. I figured that since I was going to be balding early anyways, I might as well let everybody enjoy my hair while I could grow it. And so, when February rolls around in a few months, it will have been a year since I cut my hair. I’ll take a few pictures, enjoy the last memories of it, and hand the blade to Fellner and let him slice this crap off.

My hair grows so quickly. My last cut was late July and my hair is already at pre-cut lengths. I’m cursed with the greasy hair syndrome, but it actually benefits me because I blowdry and flat iron my hair EVERYDAY. Without the oily hair, my hair would be completely dried out in one day.
Oh yeah, and I’ve been to South Carolina in the “winter” You haven’t EXPERIENCED cold weather until you spend a winter up here. Then you may change your tune. HA HA
caitlin
angela, where do you live? i live in wisconsin which also definitely beats out south carolina in the misery of winter
as far as shedding, i have the weirdest hair ever. i shed everywhere…EVERYWHERE. i know the pain of waking up on a new-made pillow of hair…but for some reason it never seems to make a difference. i still have an obscene amount of hair.
hmm…good luck on going bald…i can’t wait to see the results

I’ve experienced the winter thank you very much!!! I’ve spent MANY a winters in Chicaaaago. But I;ll experience some Boston winter when we come up there to visit you!
Why don’t both of you pull a G.I. Jane with me and just shave off your hair as well? It’d be a great conversation starter!….as long as you didn’t freak people out.

I’d look so ugly bald. I think my head is a weird shape. Caitlin, I live in Boston, Mass and I’ve been to Wisconsin in the winter too and although tempertures get colder there, because we are right on the ocean, we always, ALWAYS have a miserable wind chill. That’s what gets ya, you know.
Anyway, Goob, I stumbled upon this site and thought of you…
