MNHQ what was the issue with the hair washing thread?

[YouBoughtMeAWall]

I (and others) genuinely didn’t understand what the post deletions were for, and now the thread has been deleted.

I’m not one of the posters who was deleted so I have no skin in the game- I’m just asking for clarification on what the breaches were?

Thanks

Hi OP

Can you send us a link to the thread? We'll check it out. Bit swamped today and don't recall a hair washing thread, so any help appreciated!

It’s been deleted @LilyMumsnet but here is the link to the deletion message.

Yes I was wondering the same! I missed the last 30/40 posts so perhaps it descended in that time?

Not from what I could see @thecutback, and I was following it throughout. The deletions all seemed to be the posts exchanging and discussing studies regarding scalp conditions.

It's odd. I wondered if there were more insults on the hair pics

Who knew greasy hair could be such a polarising topic?

I wondered that

It did all get a bit silly

People created a fight over hair washing?

No they didn’t- which is why the deletions make no sense.

Is there any update on this?

I thought it was because someone kept posting ling to "prove" not washing hair every day causes baldness (paraphrasing) and they were challenged that the links showed no such thing.

Ah maybe. But I've seen much much worse on mumsnet?
