    Posted: January 22 2005 at 10:53pm
Last night, as I was watching SG1, and trying to update the back of my head, by feel - my daughter came down, wanting to make sure that the video camera was connected for her 8th birthday party, so, off goes the only thing that I ever watch on TV and on goes the camera. She was standing behind me and was pointing the camera at me....all of a sudden - there on the TV was a perfect CLEAR image of the back of my head...half with extensions, half with out....WOW!!! no more reverse images in mirrors, no more trying to find the one piece of hair that needs a shrinkie replaced.....I screamed with delight as my daughter slowly shook her head and realized that mom was indeed going nuts.

I am sure someone must have realized this, but it is all new to me....A video cam on the computer would work the same way, just point it to the back of your head, and there you go - the back of the head right in front of you!! As you can see I am still thrilled!!!
Just wanted to share

Wow! Genius! Indeed, it woud resolve the many-mirror issue. I imagine the whole process would go so much more quickly. Thanks for the great tip!

My man would rather burn my hair then attempt to help....as long as I am not attached to it!!!!
If I had a computer cam, I would put it on the web, but the camera I am using is very very old, it takes vcr tapes - I guess the good thing is that I do not have to worry about transfering to a vcr tape.....very heavy to carry - but who needs to carry it - I will just have it set up on a chair!

Someone on Quinnster's board also suggested using a webcam, as they're cheaper than video cameras. You just sit at your computer and put the webcam behind you. :)

What I want to know is, who's going to be the first to permanently modify their bathroom for this setup?


Just looking for a few good hair slaves - is that too much to ask?
