Your right natt.

Did you even read my first post?

This is a collected thread for all this so we won't see all of these topics. This is so we can have ALL of these things in ONE place.

but this topic was the most popular http://www.tableoflove.net/t396-your-hair ...ok, one year ago

I wrote only what I think... because I don't read topics about hair, make-up, clothes etc because I don't care about it what I wear etc

Then this topic be good idea.to have all hair topics.

This isn't really a question, it's more of a...I don't know. It IS an issue though.
I have a HUGE complex about my hair, it is on the level that it seriously makes me depressed and anxious over it. I'm not even exaggerating, I wish I was but I am currently crying and feeling sick because this complexion drives me nuts.

I'm the kind of person who's mad about hair, I love coloring hair and I love a lot of different hairstyles. Sadly enough, I feel that I CAN'T have most of these hairstyles I adore so much without looking like a total failure. I have really strong hair that can handle a lot of abuse and experimenting, BUT - it is thin. Not EXTREMELY thin, but still...thin.

People around me rarely take me seriously when I tell them about my complex, and another problematic part is that pretty much all of my closest friends have ridiculously thick hair, which also makes them pretty often point out how thin mine is because they're not used to handling hair like mine (despite living in Scandinavia).

I don't know what to do. Extensions here in Sweden is ridiculously expensive too so that's out of the question, and I don't really feel that volume helps *that* much.

I just needed to get this off my chest, sorry. ):

I have thick hair, I wish that my hair was slightly a bit thin because having such thick hair is quite troublesome sometimes :c Like brushing and washing it, blow drying my hair takes about half an hour of my time and the same amount of time to straighten it too.

I always find that a lot of people wants and envy different hair styles, like curly wants straight and vice versa. You could always try and buy the extenstions online, but you should look on the positive side of having thin hair and maybe get a hair style that is suitable for that type of hair.

Me too
I spend too much time every day just on my hair xD

Oh my, you too Jayson? xD it's ridiculous isn't it? Like say if I want a shower before school I have to get up at least one hour before my usual wake up time. And I am awfully stingy about my sleep, I love sleeping D:

So I always have a shower at night and only have morning showers when I need to leave later on in the morning like 11.

my hair is thick and even washing it takes time ^_^ and then their is the fact that i need to dry it using the blow dryer which takes forever and if i dont then i wake up and my hair is still wet no joke i once forgot and i woke up looking like my dog peed on my head ((which is what i first thought he did XD)) And i can never style it because gel hairspray and stuff just makes me look like im wearing a helmet ((i hate hairspray because one can equals three uses)) i plan on dying it in the morning ((when i go to the bank and get money)) but even that takes two bottles of dye because one always misses half my head ^_^
i love my hair but i also wish it wasnt as thick as it is but then again i never have to worry about going bald ((with all the hair i loose a day i can just make a wig...or a carpet im not sure what i want to do yet))

in the next month i get fake eyelashes ((because i want the kind that are kinda red but also has blue in it)) ((wait is lashes considered hair ?_?))

haha same! The amount of hair I loose I can make a wig D: It's so annoying, everywhere in my house there is either hair from the dog or me. To dye my hair full would take over 3 bottles, I really do want to dye my hair completely EA's red but the cost of buying a lot of hair dye and keeping it a vibrant colour.. :S

I'm not too fancy on gel and hairspray, usually I just leave my hair out and straighten it, I don't exactly fully straighten it I still want my hair to have volume without teasing it which is why I blow dry it up side down and don't straighten my hair right at the hairline (I leave a few cms off) or sectioning it off bit by bit.

I also never go the hair dressers! They charge me extra because it takes them so long to cut and foil it, they underestimate my locks :c so my mum does it. She cuts and dyes it, well speaking of dye I need to redye my tips again and I have bad regrowth x'D

Lashes are technically hair too but I think it belongs in the 'make-up' section xD

The hard part about buying extensions online is that you never really get a good look at them, so it's hard to know if it's good quality or if it's the right color. :c

I don't know if it's because I'm such a pessimist about this topic, since I hate my thin hair so. much. I think hairstyles for my kind of hair that is supposed to give it more volume looks...well, sad and desperate.

You could always thin out thick hair, but you can't make thin hair thicker.

Ok, here's the thing.. And this is about the last 6 years. I used to be really really blonde..white blonde, then brown, in one night. Then i decided red, and now black. The thing is that all that made my hair weak. The thing hat scares is that one point of my head i thing i have no hair on, i might got a little bald...hahaha...i'm laughing but i'm gonna cry!! Is there any recipe or solution to help me get thicker and stronger hair???

Sadly enough, there is no way for anyone to get thicker and fuller hair as we know of today.

But your hair is badly damaged, so I'd recommend a lot healing hair products. Most of the good ones are really expensive, but they last long and they really work.

When I damaged my hair pretty badly I used L'anza's conditioner, Paul Mitchell's moisturizer and Loreal Professionals hair masque. You can find all of these at your professional hairdressers. They are pricey, but they *will* be your heroes. And leave them in your hair for long periods of time (just don't forget to rinse properly).

And if you're not sure if they really will help you, just ask your hair professional what kind of products they recommend.

Also, don't wash your hair everyday. Every second or third day is enough, or else it will be worn out and dry.

Yeah, i used some of these products in the past. They're good.
I'm really like old, home recipies,you know, i like mixing up things i find home, natural, for example i use olive oil, sugar, lemon and honey, for scrub and mask on my face, so i wanted to know if anyone has a good tip. I wash my hair 2-3 times a week. so i'm ok. Money is not an issue, so i can buy almost anything (resonable of course..i wouldn't give 50€ on a shampoo)!! hahahahahaa

THANK YOUUUUUU <3

Well, I've heard that egg yolk and beer (not combined) is good for your hair, but I've never tried it out myself.

I don't know what product I use but when I bleached my hair I started using this shampoo and conditioner that helped strengthen my hair so that it doesn't weaken at all. I can't remember what it's called though >-< It's always a good idea to use healing products right after you dyed, so that you don't have to deal with brittle hair later.


I have a question of my own, I'm going to dye the tips of my hair purple. I have been using Manic Panic for my red and I want something that last longer than 2 weeks. I have looked into Special Effects 'Deep Purple' and the reviews of the product seems hopeful, it apparently lasts longer (Some about 6 weeks) and it washes out nicely too, but it bleeds quite a bit in the first week or so and it is quite dark. I don't really intend to bleach first since the red I did came out vivid without bleaching.

So should I go with this deep purple colour?

i eat cod liver oil tablets and they do help strengthen my hair and nails. my mum also told me my hair feels much thicker AND everybody's commenting on how long it is.. (ive been away from home since august but it can't grow THAT much in such a short while, can it lol) so yeah, eat vitamins. and a healthy lifestyle always helps lol

i also always plait my hair before i go to bed and i try to refrain from blowdrying it - never straighten (because ive got stick straight hair lol), but i do curl it quite often and use hairspray..
oh.. i dont use conditioner unless im dying it, in which case, after that i do.

aaand i haven't dyed my hair in awhile.. i do miss the colours but u know.. trying to be taken seriously, being blonde with blue eyes is hard enough. if i have pink hair on top of that, people do kind of not take me as serious as i want them to take me.. so i think im only gonna dye my hair now during the summer (if i dont have any productions to work on).

i haven't really read through what everybody else has written but i thought id just tell some random things about my hair lol

Hahahahaha that's soo me. When I've washed mine, I need it compleeetely dry before I can straighten it (and I don't leave the house for school with unstraightened hair), so yeah, at least one hour for me as well haha:( I don't know how many buses I've missed cause I've been like "OMG I CAN'T GO TO SCHOOL WITH MY HAIR LIKE THIS"....... That would be a secret hahaha I always just say I missed the bus when I come to school, if I told them I was fixing my hair I guess I'd be expelled or something lolol

Mane and Tail is wonderful for your hair. My hair has been a different color every month for the past year and even when I accidentally over-bleached, Mane and Tail always brought my hair back to life.
A healthy diet is good for your hair too. Vitamin E increases the blood flow to the entire body, including the scalp, one of the side effects of Beta-Carotene deficiency is unexplained hair loss, and Flaxseed oil and B vitamins are good for overall hair health. My hair was actually fullest and healthiest when I put vitamin E oil in my conditioner.

I bleach my hair almost monthly, and the conditioner I use is Infusium. It works for me, so yeahh(: You can buy it at Wal-Mart and it is only 6-7 USD. So, it's pretty cheap for how good it iss(:

U just died my pink hair back to blonde. But I did that because I wanna do something new in few days. I will dye the same area where was pink.
I have 2 ideas:
1st is to dye it lavender, something like this, or the most similar color I will get by mixing pink and blue

2nd idea is to dye it pink - lavender - blue, so it would go something like this:
(But that whole part of hair, not just the ends like on this picture)


So what do you think, which one is more cute and which one will look better on me?
Remember that Im talking only about one part of hair, just like on my avatar.

I agree...lavender is AWESOME..ChiyoLuxuria, oh i'm interested in these..So you ask on the drug store for folic acid vitamins?????

The lavender

Here are hair products that I use. They are from Avon and they are really good.
1. Heat protection styler.
2. Leave in conditioner.
3. Shampoo for dry or damaged hair.
4. Conditioner for dry or damaged hair.
5. Leave in treatment with 360% repair technology.
6. Reconstructive mask.

My new hair
You must click on the pictures to see bigger size of it. <3

like avrils hair.looks the nicest.

You are little late I dyed my hair, as you can see in my previous post

Same with me, it usually grows really fast but last couple of months its really slow

I must cut little too

wait if you cut your hair it grows faster T_T i no want a haircut but if it means i get long hair *goes to the hair salon*
oh and i blame you all because i see everyones awesome hair on facebook and stuff and i have been playing with my hair for awhile now
brushing it ((and getting the brush stuck somehow))
putting stuff in it ((and also getting everything stuck in it))
i think i have a bald spot now from having to rip a band out of my hair -_- i hope i dont but with my luck i do

I got my hair cut, and it's grown back already and even longer than it was. I got it cut like 4 weeks ago. I'm growing my hair out so it's cool.

Ok this is REALLY embarrassing but... I have dry ends (not exactly SPLIT ends) but yeah I kneed tips. Oh and I also have super thick hair

Deep condition your hair or for example Gliss Kur makes this special keratin spray conditioner that you leave in. ive tried it and am using it regularly and my ends are much more moisturised than before.

My hair dye before dying my hair.
I got it by mixing pink and blue :3

did i tell everyone i talked my father into a second color ((had to go today to get it))
i am now using two colors
manic panics cotton candy pink and electric lizard green
im going to be a watermelon XD

I cant wait to see

OMG I just dyed my purple hair with my usual blonde dye, and it turned green :DDDD
I wanted to be whole blonde again, and I hate this green. I might return that purple or pink hair again.

wow,cool
I'M not sure if I'M loving my bangs or not.somedays i like them.LOL

hahaha...tanya green is good..it's saint patricks day in USA...you match to that..hahahahaa...never mind..it's just hair...Jayson we need to see that..my hair became really weak, so i haven't dyed them since Xmas..i think i'm gonna leave them a bit longer to strenght up...i hope so..i'm using a treatment for hair loss by Oriflame..hopefully, next month, im gonna dye them again..Not something special..Something close to my natural colour..chocolate brown, maybe with a atouch of red again...we'll see..

I did lavender DIP DYE.
I love my hair so much :3

very nice!

I still have dip dye, its just darker now and more blue.
It's more purple in real life

Purple never really turn up in photos unless you are outside in the sun or just a really bright area

I might maybe have rainbow in my hair, I've bargain with dad that my tips and fringe will be that and not my whole hair (I think he is still in denial of my natural colour -.- )

I love rainbow hair.
You should go for it :3
