       I washed my hair last monday and was gonna
wash again on friday but ive come down with severe
tonsillitis and i dont see myself getting to wash
my hair till friday at least,, mayeb later and its gettin
kinda crispy so ive put a load of serum in and its a
greaseball and ive got to go out like this to the doc
tomorrow ,, i am so pissed sigh,, i dont think its a
good idea to wet my hair with a bad throat ... am i
mistaken in this???

Hey cookiesnkream.  I wouldn't want to wash my hair either with a bad throat, I'm really funny about my hair being wet because I don't want to get sick, but since it's summer time you might be ok.  If I were you I would make sure to wash it and sit under the dryer or blow dry so your hair won't be wet long.  Hope you feel better!

thanx Pokahantas! im feeling a bit better but
unfortunatelty i dont own a dryer,, im gonna wait it out
till the end of the week ,, i dont wanna make myself
sicker just for the sake of clean hair lol,, i used to go
out to go out in the dead of winter with soaked hair
and i never got sick but now im always sick cuz im
stressed out so much more,, sigh anyway ill just
think of it as giving my hair a rest for a while lol

Hope you'll be feeling better CNK! As for washing your hair, I'm not sure. A doctor would tell you best. I know when you are sick your immune system is down and washing your hair opens your pores. It might be just the same as taking a shower. But, I'm not sure. I do hope you feel better though!

thanx honeydoo, i feel much better today,, i plan to
wash on   thursday and im sure itll be safe by then,
in the mean time i put olive oil in my hair and it really
is keeping it supple,, i remember in high skool in
the winter i would skip washes for 2 weeks and had
no prob but summer is another story lol anyway
Thanx
