I got asked the same question when I went purple~& they were honestly being serious!!~maybe I look like an alien!?

i went purple after the red ha ha ! with some pink added, now i am going blond, the other colours were too much up keep, especially with all the grey ha ha ha!

Thems greys are a proper pain!!I usually let the kiddies choose the next colour but D's choice y'day was tangerine()so thought I'd take the opportunity to choose for myself this time!!

[lynda66]

i'm not staying red as my normal hair is too dark, so it doesn't take well, i decided to strip the black out and my hair went tangerine coloured, which is why i ended up red, though i may try a purple on it before i go back to black (after it's turned green with too many different colours)

i know i have greys there, but i choose not to know just how many i have

Jeez louise, you gals spend too much time worrying about appearance. As a blokey bloke I hate this new trend of guyscara and other softening of a real mans image. We don't need rehydration cream (moisturiser!), or any of that nambie pambie rubbish. Soap, water, a flannel, shaving stick, a towel and some deoderant, and if you're are on a hot date some aftershave!!. That's it, please oh please let us see an end to this feminisation of man.

Personally, Lynda I would stick with your hair all natural like, wool should only be dyed once its off the sheep.

noooooooooo men should use moisturiser, at the very least, cos soap dries your skin out, and will make you all wrinkly like a prune, then no matter how much aftershave you put on it will not take away the sight of your facial furrows.

if i had a field of sheep, they would all be multi coloured, cos it would be so cute

I haven't got any facial furrows yet!!, A man ages and the lines on his face show whether he is a happy man or a grumpy one.

I feel sorry for those sheep they were dipped, and someone forgot to tell them don't go rolling around in the heather until you are dry. Now look at them!

[lynda66]

YOU MAY NOT HAVE THEM YET!!!!!! ........... but in time you will have lines like a contour map of the himalayas ...... i think the sheep are cute.

You are missing the point Lynda, I am not so vain as to feel I would look better without them. Laughter lines are what faces are all about.

no i get your point i was just being argumentative cos it's raining, i'm bored, and theres nothing on the telly ...... i only use mosturiser when i remember ..... about twice a week, and i don't do the posh stuff, it's cheap aqueous cream for me ..... i only have that cos i get eczema and it's good for dry skin.

Isn't aqueous cream meant to be better than most moisturisers anyway, as it contains white paraffin. Not that I would know of course.

[lynda66]

well i've never gone for all the perfumed expensive stuff, as they are expensive and most things bring my eczema out, and i dunno what's in it as it's upstairs and i can't be bothered looking ..... but it doesn't have lanolin in it, which is why i use it ...... it's great stuff, even my son uses it. ...... we use it on bites and cuts actually everything lol ....... you can even use it as soap if you run out.

Ah, but is it as good as WD40, can you cook with it!??

Wish you'd have words with my mate Mikey!~doesn't seem to be able to get through a conversation with me without mentioning how I should~get my haircut(other than homejob fringe cuts it's been 4yrs!!~& what she doesn't realise is out of spite it will prob now be at least another 4 for the next one!!),then I don't wear enough(any)slap!&the majority of my wardrobe is 10 yrs old!! I find dying my hair detracts from the fact that I really can't be bothered with the rest of it all! I did give in the other week & made a bit of an effort when we went out~even got the hair straighteners out!!Wasn't til some kind chap pointed out my "grubby fingernails" I remembered I'd overlooked the manicure!!~Lifes too short!

no, but it's good for stopping doors squeaking

I dyed mine traffic light red once, it was really handy for stopping cars when I wanted to cross the road! But I've been soooooo much happier since I left it to it's own devices! No more worrying about the grey growing through, because that's the colour it's meant to me!
