    Except in my case I wear a hard hat so it's flatter on top and bigger on the sides, kinda bozo-ish.

    Yes, exactly... That might as well have been a picture of me.
    I have to blowdry my hair with round ceramic brushes and then I go over the bits you can see with a ceramic iron... And then, hopefully, it stays in place...

    Don't you just miss the 80s?

    I know I do because my hair always looks like that ^ too.

    I can never straighten my own hair even though I love straight hair. Even at the hairdresser's it takes two people about 45 minutes to get it done.

    My hair is fine (I would add 'luckily' but it's not always a blessing), so it's easier to torture it into being straight. However, I can never wear it curly without a truck load of mousse otherwise I'll end up looking like an Bichon Frisé with really long hair.

    So I'm doomed to spend half an hour on drying my hair...

    You guys with long thick hair are SO lucky! My hair is "baby fine." And short. It doesn't really grow past my shoulders, nor is it flattering when it's long. Sigh. I have to wash and blow dry it every day because it doesn't have body either. I still remember finding that out. I was in the seventh grade, and a friend told me. It was worse than finding out about the birds and the bees. So every day is a potentially bad hair day for me.

    Not sure if it is lucky as such. A very good friend often tells me that I have got thick hair to match my thick head! But he is follically challenged so we know that it is his jealousy getting the better of him!

    Well, look on the bright side... One worry less... And you must be saving a lot of money on hair products and such!

    Ugh. My hair is currently down to the bottom of my shoulder blades, and still shaved in a mohawk strip. *I doubt I'll ever be able to let it grow out, now...* but when I wear it down, not in a ponytail or anything, I still have people telling me, 'Wow! Your hair is so thick! Blahblahblah...'. When I pull it up and show the shaved sides, I tend to get a look like this: =O

    If I still had a full head, I'd weight about 30 more pounds

    Anybody else use John Freida? I get the frizzies big time, and also style/straighten/blow dry frequently, so I use John Freida Frizzease... it is expensive, but it works MIRACLES! Shampoo, conditioner, leave in conditioner, and serum. *thumbs up*

    (P.s. big hair for the win. I often spend hours with a blow dryer, round brush and hairspray TRYING to make my hair look like the above photo!)
    Naked except for a cigarette, you let your mind drift and forget your disbelief. Feel the chill down your back and the flutter of wings through dandelion fields, and forget the pull of gravity in a night without stars.

    I lack eloquence and commitment to my arguments. They are half baked, and I will begin passionately, and then abandon them.

    John freida has stopped working on my hair... I use a pantane brunnette serum now instead and a hena based conditioner... and an elvive shampoo. the combo actually works.

    Jeez all i have to do is turn a blow dryer on. Have you tried by drying your hair upside down?

    All you need is a little mousse and a lot of hairspray and blamo you have to scooch down while driving so your hair doesn't hit the roof.

    I wonder if I can still make big hair? Maybe I'll try this weekend since I can't watch TV.

    John Frieda also doesn't work for me, like for Niamh, because my hair is so fine - I have a lot of it though. I can't use all the serums and creams because it causes build-up on my hair. So I have to use Gill for dry scalp (I have seriously sensitive skin and other shampoos give me eczema, and Gill makes your hair REALLY soft too!) and I have to use a salon conditioner. Then every other week I also have to use a deep cleaning shampoo. My hair is a lot of trouble...

    Heh, I can just leave my hair to dry naturally for that

    Ditto. When it is like that, I can audition for Cathy from Wuthering Heights!

    Maybe I should go back to having my fringe like this:
