Question for GIRLS on the spectrum

Post Reply New Topic

Pretty much yeah. Although my hair is very straight and tends to get oily if I don't blowdry. So I usually take a few minutes to blowdry. No styling though, and my mom even does the cutting for me. No layers either. I basically have the hair style of an eight year old girl. Elaborate styles never work for me, I just don't have the patience or ability. Plus I'm fairly active so it just gets messed up anyway.

I'm not an aspie, but my hair is wash 'n wear. I keep it fairly short which saves time spent on it. My hair is one of my better features. I do blow dry it because I can't stand the feeling of a damp head, but I don't have patience for anything beyond 2 minutes of drying.

I usually wash and wear it, occasionally I style it in some way though.

wash and wear for me. Best if I don't have to comb it. That just takes too much effort.

Sometimes I style my hair, with hairspray.......but usually I lack the energy and its more comfortable if I just brush it and go on with my day. I attempt to shower every other day but usually I end up taking 1 or 2 showers per week so I suppose my hair is not always as clean as it should be.

But yeah I don't know if the fact I usually don't do much with my hair or wash it every day has to do with having aspergers, having depression or both.

No. I have a lot of issues with my hair not "feeling right". It never feels right after I wash it. I have to flat iron parts and blow dry.

Usually I blow mine dry, but not styled. More of a cold weather factor. I just dry it, yank out the tangles, and done.

If you take a look at my avatar, you will see that I do not have much hair anymore. Given that I am a 43 year old male who is married and not in the market for ladies, I just shave it once a week.

If you are looking for a boyfriend or future husband, I would do my best to make my hair look good. However, I personally prefer the natural look. Thus, if you had two inch long hair and no make up, I would not care. Still, I am probably the exception to the rule.

Yes. When I was a kid I never combed my hair so my mom made me get it all cut off. I actually liked long hair, but I didn't wanna take care of it.

Now I have shoulder-length hair. It's naturally wavy and in decent shape so I just shampoo, condition, comb and that's it! I never blow-dry. I hate blowdryers.

Wash and wear most of the time. Only on special occasions I use straightener but I've never learnt how to use any of the hair product. I do go crazy sometimes and make a drastic change in my haircut like cutting really long hair very short or changing the color from dark brown to blonde. But I go to the same hairdresser since I was 15 and she knows me and my hair very well. So she always makes sure that my haircut wouldn't require a lot of time for it to look decent.

Have you considered scaring your parents to death? Shave your head. I did - in the summer, of course. I was amazed at how good it felt to have the breeze on my scalp. After that, your parents will be grateful for any hair you choose to keep.

Mine is.

Yeah, pretty much. My hair is short-ish and I don't even have to brush it because I don't get knots anyway. But I have to wash it often because it's get greasy fast. When it comes to styling, my pillow is my stylist and he's doing a pretty good job. People often comment on my hair and ask me what products I used to make it look like that!
