Don't have to shave your legs much!!

What's up with that. Lord girls, I can practically watch the hairs on my legs grow. I must have gotten your share.

Probably why God gave me boys.

My daughter's adopted and she hardly has hair on her legs. Thank God.

Oh...all of you have made me laugh and feel so much better. Isn't it funny; how sharing halves the annoyance?

One more thing...one of my friends and I have given the stray chin hairs a name: WOLF HAIRS.

Oh, and every now and then one particularly long one magically appears on my neck. I don't ususally keep an eye on this area, so it gets away from me until it is long enough to curl.

Really, there must be a little hair waiting line, kind of like the teller line at the bank. The second one is plucked, a new one instantly steps up to take its place.

Ain't life grand?

Rhett, I love that description. What a hoot. Being a redhead, what hairs are left on my legs barely show and I could use a curling iron on them before I had to shave them. Thank goodness. I don't have hairs that have to be plucked off my face, but I also don't have eyebrows that show up. They are so light, you have to get IN MY FACE to see if I have any. So I use a pencil. Being half blind, I sometimes end up resembling a vampire; with red hair. Red and gray, that is. Would somebody tell me why the hair right around the front of our face WILL NOT hold hair dye? I'm asking for a friend, not me. Ahem...

JawJaw, as someone with a hairdressing and coloring license, if you put the haircolor on the front first and then apply it to the rest of your head, it might make a difference. That just means the hair around your face is healthier and more resistant to the chemicals in hair dye.

Also, you could try putting a bit of bleach on the front first , just briefly, then wash it out and let your hair dry, just to open the hair shaft prior to applying the color.

What can I do about zits? I get small ones sometimes on my chest and on my face. I hate it and can cover one up with cover-up but maybe its my diet or lack of water.

Dab a bit of plain ordinary rubbing alcohol on each one a few times and they will dry up and usually not come back ever.

I am always yanking out chin hairs and some of those suckers are long, black and curly. Whats that about? The more I yank the more they grow and yet not one hair on my legs or under my arms since my early 20's and then never very many. Now all of sa sudden a spurt of growth and why my chin for heavens sake??? I'm a old woman NOT an old man!

Its hormones....all about hormones...the estrogen is being replaced by androgens...it happens. That's why couples start to look more and more alike as they age together.

Oh...so, does this mean that I will finally be able to tinkle standing up without it ending up in my hiking boot?
I always like to find a way to put a positive spin on things, you know...
