hair

When I was little, my mom had a fall, kind of like a small wig or hair extentions, and she kept it in a drawer. I thought it was a mongoose and was completely terrified of it. I was a handful and my older sister watched me everyday while mom was at work. If I got too out of hand, my sister would threaten to get the mongoose out of the drawer. I would scream and cry and beg her not too. After the threat, I was always good as gold. It still freaks me out.

I thought men with moustaches were very brave. Since the moustache hair came directly out of thier nostrials, they had a more difficult time breathing than a man with no facial hair. Beards stayed in place with Elmer's glue.

I used to believe that if and when you got your hair cut it would all bleed

When I was four I had realy long blonde hair but really hated having it brushed. My mom would say "keep still while I brush your hair or it will become a birds nest". For years I was terrified when I bird flew near me as I thought they would lay eggs in my hair.

When my older sister was little, my oldest sister told her that soap would turn your hair white. She believed that for the longest time.

when i was little my nan used to care for me before school, and she used to tie the top half of my hair back in an up-down style. there was always this curly bit that stuck right out of the side of my fringe, and seeing as i had reasonably straight hair, it confused me.
i said "whats that curly bit for?" my nan said "its just a corr flick, thats all"
but i always thought she called it a corn flake. what had curly bits got to do with kellogs cereal?

I once thought that if I ever shaved my pubic hair, it wouldn't grow back again.

I used to beleive that my dad only had a shave on Sundays. Because he got up before me on all the other days.

My sister used to believe that if you ate spaghetti when you were bald the spaghetti would pop out of your head instead of hair.

When i was little I belived that shampo made your hair grow so when I was little and me and my sister were taking a bath together she was rubbing shampoo on her arm and I said to her 'Why do you wanna make your arm hair grow?!'

When I was youngre, my brother said if you wore socks all the time, it would make your hair grow faster cause the hair that should grow on your feet would push out onto your head.
So I ended up making sure I wore socks all the time, because I didn't want foot hair!

once my mom and a friend of hers were suntanning with their arms up behind their heads and I made a connection between their not-too-recently shaved armpits and the radio next to them.I thought that women had speakers there since I saw a resemblance.I still wonder...

When I was young all the barbers (male hairdressers) would only cut adults hair on Saturdays. I therefore worked out that on Saturdays all the dads went to get there pubic hair cut.

My mum used to tell me the reason I had so many knots in my hair was that fairies used to tie bits of it together and play swings with it while I was asleep! I still laugh when I think of it now.

i was told by a friend at primary school that eating the crusts on bread would make your hair curly. Because i had really curly hair i tought this to be true, so i stopped eating crusts, obviously this didn't work.

I used to believe that if you chewed on your hair you would grow worms in your tummy... of course I only believed this because my mother insisted that it was true. Until I was in college did I realize that it was just something that she made up!
