Problem with my hair

The thing with rubber bands is normal - cats are attracted to the smell of rubber - I use them on the airplanes I fly as well as rubber motors to drive the props. The rubber I use is about 1/4 wide and can be anything on amodel of up to 40 feet plus. Both cats - sorry Brandy goes nuts with it.

LMAO!!!! What color and type? Mine is confused, with the asian straight if blow-dried and straightened with a flat iron or can be curly, wavy after washing but then it;ll get thicker and kinkier after a few days till the next washing!! LOL! It's black with some golden highlights thanks to Loreal

I will take anything to regain my youthful looks!!!! Am 34 in Oct - there goes youthful theory!

You guys are hilarious!!!

Jellybelly where's your pic?

I shed almost worse than my cats and it doesn't matter if my hair is short or long (short is just less noticeable).

ROTFLMAO!

I have the same problem w/the hair...I'm glad you had the guts to post it, Sicy! We have to cut my 2-foot-long red hairs off the vacuum brush, too!

I brush my hair over the sink in the bathroom & gather it up to throw away...but every now & then the cats will end up finding one shed elsewhere. I think what happens with the hair is that they're not trying to eat it, but they pick it up accidentally, & it gets caught on their tongues when they're cleaning. Once it's stuck in the little combs on her tongue, she can't spit it out - she has no choice but to keep swallowing until it's gone . That's why thread and yarn are so dangerous to cats. The rubberbands just seem to fascinate them...I've had to work hard to get my husband to ALWAYS put rubberbands out of reach. I find myself picking them up & tucking them away even when I'm elsewhere, it's become such a habit.

Have you tried wearing your hair up in a bun or a knot around the house? That might help a little, if you can stand it.

I wonder what the anti-shedding tablets taste like?

Well I'm sure glad I'm not the only one I have actually broken a vacuum with my hair

Ya I wear my hair tied back when I'm just sitting around the house. Now I will be extra cautious about it though since the poop incident

I don't think I shed on the floor, but maybe I should be more careful as well about that. I know I've pulled out some disgusting masses of hair out of the drain in the tub.

Also, my cat Snoopy loves to lick my hair. I try to stop him, but sometimes I wake up and he's licking my hair, like crazy.

When you comb your hair and as my wife does, sheds loads of the stuf - shes a red head - pull the hair from a brush or off the floor and mail it - TO ME!
As some one that has deemed it best to accept their lot in life and that I have nuclear hair ( no blast - just a stack of fall out) and had it cut to less than 1/4 inch - I will happily accept all donations to get it long again, that feeling of being able to run my fingers through my hair would be great.

I've got long red hair and my husband lost most of his by the time he hit 30. You don't know what you are asking for, with all the redheads in here, you could get enough to cover your entire body!

Kev, you are too funny. I'll send you both mine and hubby's, okay?

I've learned to comb my hair out while it's wet and catch all the loose hair with my fingers before I blow dry it. . . .
My daughter on the other hand manages to leave hers all over the house.

I had very long (below my waist) hair which I cut off and donated to Locks For Love last year. That's another good solution to the problem

My bf would kill me if I cut my hair

LOL!!! It's always men with hardly any hair that prefers ours long. Maybe you should surprise him Sicy I did with my hubby, after having my son I wacked it off, I don't think I'll wack that short because he started comparing my hair to Einstein's!!! LOL!! Yeah, I've broken a vacuum also!!!! I'm glad I'm not the only one!!! I think Kev won't have any problem getting any hair from the long-haired women in here!! LOL! Kev don't call it quits yet, we're in the same age group, even though I've found more gray hair!! Don't think I'm wiser yet though LOL!

btw I've scanned my pic on the laptop but can't figure out how to copy it to a CDr-rw disk and the scanner we do have really screws up with the USB connection on our computer so we can't use it except on the laptop. Once we figure it out, you guys maybe get a chance to see the frizzhead! I'm a bit camera-shy!!!

I have long hair too! Every now and again Twig will hit it when I am sleeping to wake me up so he can go under the covers. If I don't wake up, he will literally PULL it in his mouth until I wake up. so I've learned to become a VERY light sleeper when i know he's by the bed. LOL! No cat incidents except the one in the health forum but that didn't have to do with hair. All rubber bands that come into the house are IMMEDIATELY cut into small pieces so that the cats can't swallow them. My S/O has a stash of them somewhere but he won't tell me where cause he knows I will cut them up!
