sadiekate...wow! those are awesome!!

snowmouse....I have dry hair tooo....and have been dying it for 15 years.....but it's pretty healthy because of several things: I never comb or brush it while it's wet, I never use a blow dryer, I try to not wash it every day, and, in fact, I wash it at night and sleep on it wet (it takes about 4 hours to dry if it's not braided or anything...) the only product I ever use is something called silk and I only use it if I am braiding my hair wet which requires me to break rule number 1. I LOVE being a blonde!!

Barb, have you had a perm before? Just curious. I've had a few and....well, if a perm lasts more than two weeks I"m incredibly lucky . this hair does not hold curl. it's pretty fine, too, so just curious if you'll run into the same problem!

If anyone tries those TE pony holders, please do a review! It will probably be a few months before I make another purchase online....if I get to it first, I'll buy them anyway and do my own review!

OH! and how could I forget the inverted ponytail?? Yeesh, I wear that at least as often as a ponytail - works great with the bike helmet because the bump is spread out to either side....I find my helmet cinches up perfectly, and I can start the pony at almost a normal height, not really really low....

Happy hair, everybody!

Namaste,
