If I start it here they can move it to the right place (If they decide to start a topic (& ever decide what to call it))

I'm so sorry, I feel your pain lol.

Actually it's no laughing matter. I'm trying to steel myself to do DD2's hair. Maybe it'll last another week. [wry grin emoticon]

well done you. Have got another day of looking for crawlies left!

feebie · 15/05/2005 18:00

oh, someone said crawlies, are you talking headlice .... someone told me they didn't like afro type hair and I REALLY want to believe them - true/false, please say true

happymerryberries · 15/05/2005 18:35

Sorry! Head lice are equal opps! That said if hair is braided it will make it harder for the lice to get onto the hair in the first place.

Anti lice websites in the US state that the conditioner/wet combing can work on African american hair, so I guess the do get passed on

feebie · 15/05/2005 18:50

[darn emoticon!!!] better get braiding - thanks for shattering my illusions HMB

gone now. Though I hesitate to say that cos they've got thick hair and the little b*ggers can hide! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

OliviaGrace · 28/05/2005 01:12

does anyone kno how to do cane row and does the tightness hurt your dd/ds?

MarsLady · 28/05/2005 01:42

yes
only if you do it too tight.

It should be fine. I spent my entire childhood with canerowed hair.

mytwopenceworth · 28/05/2005 12:57

i just give my lads a number 3 - problem solved!

MarsLady · 28/05/2005 13:07

but what would you do with lasses? Don't imagine too many girlies would be impressed with your tactics!

mytwopenceworth · 28/05/2005 18:40

you dont think it would start a great new trend then?

MarsLady · 28/05/2005 18:43

I asked my girlies and I didn't realise that they knew language like that!

franch · 29/05/2005 08:34

Looks good on you though Mars, aren't they inspired?

mytwopenceworth · 29/05/2005 19:28

i do a really good job though, and its nice and cool in summer....
