Can you take care of your hair?

Post Reply New Topic

Yes, I always struggled with taking care of my hair, it was relaxed and very difficult to take care of - I decided to cut it all off and go back to having a small afro. So much easier to deal with now.

Does anyone else here have issues with having their hair and scalp touched?
I don't know how anyone can stand having their hair 'done'.
It makes me feel sick thinking about it.

I shampoo my hair every day, as I don't have any sensory issues related to it. I've heard you're not really supposed to wash it every day, but I haven't noticed any ill effects.

I usually wait until it's intolerably uncomfortable to get it cut. I've had the same hairstyle for (almost) as long as I can remember.

I also enjoy the sensation of combing my hair when it's wet.

I know a girl that uses spray conditioner and a brush called a Tangle Teezer for her hair.

I always forget to maintain my hair (scalp) but when I do I have a completely bald head and bushy beard, I do like going to the barbers and getting the beard trimmed around the edges looking sharp. Sometimes after spending £20 on a shaved head and beard trim. I don't like how they've done it and go home and cut all my beard off and go clean shaven.

I prefer having a beard though. I do look intimidating like it, but if I do speak to people, they soon realise I'm a geek in wolf's clothing

I had a lot of difficulty when I was younger, but now I spend a lot of time caring for my hair. It's incredibly long. I don't do much styling though. I enjoy hair and scalp sensations, but I can't STAND having my hair detangled by anyone else. It's torture.

My hair is also thick and I have to shampoo it every day or it can be quite hard to manage,it used to be shoulder length and had to be shampooed and conditioned and constantly brushed to look good which was a pain,though I do like it a bit long so I think I will grow it a bit,in fact the last time I went to the barber I know he was like,"Is it time for your bi-annual hair cut?" not wholly in-accurate unfortunately .

I hate taking showers and washing my hair, but still shower every day or every other day. I definitely hate detangling my hair. it comes to just below my shoulders right now, so tangles aren't too much of an issue, but when it was longer, it was always tangled, so I got it cut.

I have thick hair that curls a bit in the front, but I have never had trouble taking care of it.

Ya, I'm weird like that...

I just gotta say, your hair looks pretty great.

Half the time because my efforts were mostly undone. Thank the climate from where I live.
I'd just put a ponytail or a hairclamp for others' sake of "comfort". Though I mostly don't mind if the weather is too hot or too windy and not cold.

My hair is long, quite thin, and naturally wavy. I never had a haircut since when I was like 7. And I keep it that way since it still sort of makes me warm which sometimes I wish my hair could at least get any thicker at all.

I'm fine with people playing with my hair as long as there's no cutting or anything sticky. No major sensory issues here.

I used to have long hair but cut it a few months ago, I'm growing it out to mid length since long hair is very hard to manage and takes forever to dry. Long hair is much harder to style, shorter styles can be styled in a few minutes when they become unruly.



That was my hair when it was really long,

I never had sensory problems which made cutting, combing or washing my hair uncomfortable.

When I was younger I didn't care at all what my hair looked like and in middle/high school people occasionally made fun of me because it was not combed. Now I try to remember to comb it but I don't always do it.

Besides that, I quite like my hair. I keep it mid-long.

Never cared about combing it, gels, etc. etc.

Have had the same hairstyle nearly my entire life.

It's very plain but requires little maintenance.

Just let it grow until it look like beatles hairstyle, then shave it until it's near-bald, and repeat.

All I do is wash it.
