I didn't make any hair resolutions, so I shall make a belated one. 'I must comb my hair properly, I must comb my hair properly, I must comb my hair properly, I must comb my hair properly......' Far too many snapping noises recently

Aren't those snapping noises the worst? My hair is noisy(for hair) in general if it moves because of the strand thickness but the snapping noises are just bad.

I'm with ya'll on missing something!
I hate those snapping noises, too. I do need to take better care of my hair....too many resolutions to state right now, but I can agree on the combing better!

Hmmmm, some strange goings on with the hair board the last few days.....I am missing something too!
Anyway, as for hair snapping, I need to be more gentle with my combing and brushing and also keep my hair protected in the wind and bad weather. I've been outside a lot lately and my hair's been blowing around in a way that leads to many tangles. Then I come home and try to comb and it's a virtual snapping party! "I will comb more gently, I will comb more gently" Thanks PhilGirl!!!

Yeah I know what you mean about the snapping party. Mine has been terrible recently. I'm putting it down to Laureth Sulphate.
Rini: When my hair was dryer before I took care of it, it just to really freak me out. I was lying in my bed and I heard it and started screaming and woke the whole house up because I thought there was a spider or something on my pillow!
I'm missing something too. My hair is terrible for sounding like a bowl
of rice krispies (a cereal that sounds noisy-is it in the usa?) I
haven't actually combed it for three days because I can't be bothered
to finish unpacking and find my comb. I've just been
fingercombing.

Well, since thy ladyships brought this thread back to life, may I............(sorry, I guess my moods gave someones of you a bad day)...
First of all, I must tell you all for me the New Year is November the 1st (the Samhain). On that ocasion, I promissed to myself (once again) the following:
-Keep my hair long till the day I die, no matter what
-Allways be an advocate for long hair
-Never give a farthing on fashion, trends and 'company dress codes'
-Never wear a suit and a tie (leather jackets, Texan hats and Texan riding boots only!)
-Be forever young (I hate old age, especially on me - call me a Peter Pan wannabe, if it makes you feel better)

Blessed be and grow your hair knee-length,

I'm going to speculate that the person "ignoring certain posts" is
probably directing their ire either at me. At times, moderators
need to take some action which isn't going to be popular with
everyone. Can't please all of the people all of the time.
Anyway, nobody needs to worry about missing something.
Yikes! The snapping isn't good.
Anymore, I only infrequently hear the snapping sounds. I've found
that combing more slowly (and picking apart tangles with my fingertips)
helps reduce or eliminate the snapping.

Dave...I still don't get it, but then again...I don't think I really want to
This whole "noisy hair" thing is making me laugh!! My hair has always been quiet (unlike me!) so it's so funny to hear about this. HFO....I wish you had that on video

It's calmed down now but when it had layers, it sometimes sounded like wind in trees.
Dave: If it's aimed at you then that's pretty harsh. You've done a great job as a mod and you're still as lovely as ever. By what was said, you'd think you had been some helldiva.

Lesse, she's a redhead, she's from Scotland, and says "I think I'm
paranoid." Shirley Manson? Nope, Sarah-Jane. (not to worry, Sarah.. you're doing great here... and thanks for letting me have a little chuckle at your expense.)

"1. I realise it sounds cliche, but I am about to start a diet."
Have been "South-Beaching" it for about six weeks and it is working wonderfully. I feel a lot better, eating way more heathily, am walking regularly, and people are beginning to notice a weight loss.
"2. In hand with the diet is the resolve to take better care of myself and to be kind to myself."
Still need work here.
"3. Hair care"
Recently did a two-inch lock-chop to get rid of damaged ends from winter dryness. I define a lock-chop as trimming one's hair dry so you can see how your hair falls and forms the waves and individual locks of hair. It takes time because you have many smaller sections of hair to deal with. Wet trims may give you a more even cut, but you can miss damage that only visible with dry hair.
Still do color touch ups but have avoided high-lighting or trend hair cuts. Because of the warmer weather, I wear it up a lot more in a pony-tail.
"4. I now have a digital camera, and I just might post a hair pic here"
Need to update to a less frizzy shot. Its hard to get my BF to take a picture because he thinks it's absurd that people participate in a hair forum. I 'gently' remind him that yes, the internet can indeed be used for more than just gaming and porn.
Weather Forcast - With high humidity in the air, expect general hair frizziness to continue :-/
Current Length: 30 inches or so from the front

2. No straightening - Down to about once a month but on a low heat.
3. No blowdrying - Usually only in winter
4. Try to embrace my natural waves without ending up wet-combing them out - I wear my hair wavy alot now.
5. Regular trims - Once a month
6. Get to elbow-length - Don't know if I'll make it in a year. The back might.
7. Grow the bangs from hell back to my collarbone or more - Changed my mind on them again since cutting them back in previously. They're now jaw length since being eyebrow length in March so they might get to my collarbone.
8. Cut EVERY split end I see off. - With the amount of hair I have, this is difficult but I try.

Well, I guess we made our resolution. I wasn't sure what it was so I had to go back to look LOL!. We said we hoped not to have to do any trims in 2006 and we didn't. I remember of saying somewhere on the board that I thought that Jennifer's hair would be touching the tops of her pants by the end of the year and it does now with ease so it was a good year for her hair. She's still growing and we both love it so 2007 should be fun.
