Yes, I'm finding that out! ;) It was a pleasant suprise, I must say!
Though it shouldn't have been, I think we tend to look for more
"natural" ways of doing most things. It's always nice to know you're
not alone!! Being a solitary, living in the boonies, I sometimes feel
like I'm all alone! LOL!! What did we EVER do before the internet??

MM & BB!!

: : Hi Ravyn,

: : My hair has thinned something awful as well, I'm hoping it's just
: from
: : being all broken off a year ago, and once it all gets out to one
: : length again it will have regained some of it's thickness. I've
: been
: : on lots of drugs the last many years as well, and I'm worried those
: : have affected it. I hope once I'm able to get off of those, that
: may
: : help as well. When I was young I could never find anything that
: would
: : even hold it! I broke more pony tail holders and barrettes than I
: : could count!! Even my most recent hair stylist would just go nuts
: : over my thick hair, and that was just a few short years ago, so
: : hopefully it will come back.
: :
: : I've got a profile on Witches Voice as well, well, I've got my
: online
: : store listed there. I had a personal one as well, but since they've
: : changed things around so much, and they've gotten so HUGE, I can't
: : find anything there anymore!! I do go and read the articles though,
: : it's a great site!! MM!! <|;)

: : : if I went totally white I would be tempted to stop dyeing. and
: two-
: : : tone hair would not bother me all that much--I had black length
: and
: : : cherry/burgundy roots for about 6 inches, ON PURPOSE, for about
: 10
: : : yrs. there is a small bad web-cam pic of me on my yahoo profile
: (s)--
: : : check out LadyLvsNyt or if you are not easily offended(rater R+)
: : : LadyHeresy in the Yahoo profiles and you will find me. (You can
: also
: : : find a profile for me on Witches' Voice- www.witchvox.com -that
: : : actually tells ABOUT ME and not just an RPG character like on
: Yahoo.)
: : : But I will not go salt-n-pepper or partly gray because it makes
: me
: : : look like my mother! My mom was not a bad looking woman--but I am
: NOT
: : : ready to look like her yet!
: : : I started getting gray hairs at 17 and at 42 now I am well over
: half
: : : gray-- probably 85%, but it is not evenly distributed. Mom had
: these
: : : cool white streaks, not me!
: : : My biggest concern is not the color now but the texture. My hair
: is
: : : nearly unrecognizable from when I was young! It has greatly
: damaged
: : : my self-esteem. Thin, fine, silky, limp. It is waist length now
: and I
: : : can braid it into one thin braid, when iw as 20 I could not get
: all
: : : my hair into 3 or 4 braids as thick as my wrist! Henna does
: thicken
: : : my hair and for that I am grateful enough to keep using it.
