Now you must understand that my hair has never been my best feature. Back in the early 70's when long straight basically flat hair was what everyone wanted, I was good to go. When the late part of that decade rolled around, big hair was the thing. Then I had to get perms to poof it up. One old college yearbook photo has my do actually touching the edges of the picture. Wow , what a proud day that was. I used to say that we would only be happy when our hair was wider than our hips. Had to abandon that notion when it became apparent that a 3 foot wide hairdo was impractical. Last summer's beach trip had us all going through old pictures from previous beach years. I was voted most varieties of hair styles. I've tried them all. Maybe I'll do a hair blog...
Anyway back to the present. On a clear, cool, non-humid day, my hair can look ok. We have had a few of those lately. So I couldn't figure out why my hair looked so bad. It was flat as a pancake from the get go and got progressively worse. Next morning I decided to check out the shampoo I had used.
Can you spot the problem? Hey I was just trying to get a little body here. Can you blame me? BODY wash. I promise you they were together on the shelf. Oh well , at least I know my hair is not that bad.
I have heard your story, but you paint a vivid picture too. Doris Jones is speaking to our Creative Writers Group today at 2 I must run and learn something from her. Mom
