Entertaining Hair Conversations: Let's share!

[Vrindi]

Conversations with my mum involved every now and then.


Mum: "Alexandra, you should really brush your hair!"
Me: "Yeah..."
Mum: "It's good for your hair! Brush it directly after your shower!"
Me: "NO!" *Horror*
Brother: "It's NOT good for your hair! She told me that!"


Me; "Mum... I don't like my hair at the moment..."
Mum; "Hmm?"
Me; "I don't think it suits me. Did you like my short hair?"
Mum; "Yes, it looked so wonderful. It really framed your face!"
Me; "So, and what do you think about growing out my hair? I'm thinking about cutting it again. But then I told you I wanted loooong hair. Sigh. I don't know what to do."
Mum; "NOOOOO DON'T CUT IT!"
Me; "So, what do you prefer on me. Short or long hair?"
Mum; "Everything suits you, darling..."
Me; "And what about my bangs? Do you like them straight, side swept or just no bangs at all?"
Mum; "Uhhh, everything looks fine on you!"
Me; "Mum, please... I need some help!"
Mum; "Ehmmm... straight bangs"
Me; "But I don't like straight bangs... I think I should grow them out. I've seen other girls with high foreheads with no bangs. I think I look better without. What do you think?"
Mum; "Yeah, sure! Do whatever you like."

* a few months later *

Me; "Mum?? Have you seen my forehead? It's so huge... I think I look better with bangs."
Mum; "Yeah, you're right. I prefer you with side swept bangs."
Me; "....mum?"
Mum; "Hmmm?"
Me; "Do you really think it's a good idea to grow my hair?"
Mum; "Yes of course!!!!! I think you will look very pretty with long hair! I forbid you to cut it! Don't even think of it!"
Me; "So you didn't like my short hair then?"
Mum; "Yes I did!! But now you said you are growing your hair, so stick to your plan!"
Me; "...... it feels so.... so....."
Mum; "Don't worry, it will grow! I'll help you to achieve your goal! Shall I do something fancy with your hair now? Braiding it or so? Wait, I'll do something nice!"

Voila upside down french braid bun, or another fancy hairstyle I can't do myself.

I love my mum!!

Wow. Your mom is awesome. Conversations with mine always started with, "You'd look so much prettier if..." She was always telling me to cut it or bleach it. It was horrible.

My coworker M, was talking about hair with a customer.

M: But Alicia's hair is ALL the way DOWN to HERE *points at tbl*
Customer: *stares, shocked awed*

Both seemed impressed and all I could think was about it not being all that long.

DS 13: sends me a text message telling me about this app where you can get a photo album made and a "book" of your photos gets mailed to you. His friend gave him a coupon.

This is actually his IMessages cut and pasted:

"Look at what Gio gave me!**It's a app where you can have a photo book of up to 100 photos!**It's only like $3 for a book but he gave me this coupon so we can get a free photo book."

And this next bit is the best part:

"He gave us 2 so you could use one for your hair."
"100 photos of your hair in a book!"

I think I've gone too far with the hair photos thing. I think I've scarred my kids.

Me: Which colour do you prefer..?
Child: I love the red!! (looking really overexcited)

Aww....I love kids!

Today I tried my first sock bun.

When I mentioned that I'd bought an old sock from the op-shop, my sisters asked what for.

Me: For my hair.
Sis: Really?
Me: It's in there now (turn to show her my hairdo)
Sis: No it isn't. I can't see a sock.
Me: It's under my hair.
Sis: You have a SOCK in your hair?
Me: Yes.
Sis: EW! You didn't wash it first!?
Me: It was clean!
Sis: Ew, a sock!

While leaning down to give my husband a kiss my braid slid down and smacked him in the face. He flicked it out of the way in annoyance and it few around to smack him on the other side of the face. At this point I collapsed in laughter and he demanded to know where I'd hidden his ink wells.

Ha! Comedy gold!



My mom had pin-straight hair all her life - until about two years ago. Menopause hit, and suddenly she had to figure out wurly hair.

Mom: "I've finally figured it out - if I don't brush it, it actually looks better! Now I know why you hated having your hair brushed!"

Me: "Yeah - and all those times you told me I only needed a pea-sized bit of conditioner and just on the ends? Guess what - if you use all conditioner and no shampoo, your hair still gets clean and it'll be softer AND curlier."

Mom: "Really?! What else do you know about curly hair?"

She now has aloe and coconut oil, and uses the OCM with jojoba and castor oils. It was so funny to watch her discover that curly hair has different needs.
