hair

A friend of mine wanted to be a hairdresser because she thought of a radical new hairstyle. A hairstyle full of holes and squares in long straight hair. Her father put her straight but it took a while for her to be convinced that it was impossible to cut out figures in long hair...

when i was younger maybe around 4. i used to believe that an afro was a disease you got when you were older. my brother has a different type of hair than i do so his would be a 'fro and mine was just curly so i assumed since i hug around him all of the time i would eventually catch the disease. so i avoided him for a few weeks until i learned the truth

i used to believe peeps with curly hair had a 3rd ear wich they can read peep's minds

I used to think a mustache was just extended nose hair.

I had blonde hair when I was little, and I believed that people with brown or black hair had dirty hair and just needed to wash it to turn it back to blonde.

I used to think that pubic hair was "public" hair and it didn't make any sense because pubic hair is private, not public

I was told that if you chew your hair you end up with a hairball in your stomach and DIE!!!!!

When I was little, my parents once told me that I caused the bald spot on my dad's head. They said that I rubbed the hair off with my chin when I would ride up on his shoulders.
It would be years before it even dawned on me that they had been pulling my leg.

I belived that if I mixed all the different shampoos awailable in our bathromm, my hair would get extreemly strong and give me incredible powers. Havent seen any yet though.

I used to suck my hair when i was little so my Nan told me a girl died once cause the hair got tangled in her belly and there was no room left in there so she died. I still stop myself today thinking about that story!

I used to believe an "Ego" was a kind of hair style, similar to a mullet.

When I was Little My Father used To Tell me that if I washed my stomache to much it would grow lots of hair and look like his. (he was a very hairy guy), I Was Horrified consideirng I was a 4 year old little girl.

when I was little my dolls heads had little holes where the hair came out. One day while sitting brushing my mothers hair I asked her where's all the holes? I thought that was how hair was supposed to look.

I used to think that black people had hair made of yarn.

I also used to think that anyone could grow a beard if they wanted to - even women. I didn't know that beardless people shaved - I just assumed if you wanted a beard, one would grow, and if you didn't want one, it wouldn't grow.

I believed that men didn't go bald because ther hair fell out or stopped growing but that the hair would grow through their head and come out of their ears and nose! Old bald men always had hairy ears and noses.

When I was 5/6, I asked mom why dad was bald. Dad told me his hair blew away in a tornado. Everytime I watch the Wizard of Oz, I think of my dad!

When I was 6yrs. old. I ask my mom "Why some of your hair is white ? " My mom replied "When you do something bad one of my hair goes white". I replied " How come ? Grandma's hair are all white ? ".

When I was little, to discourage me from sticking out my tongue, my mother told me that it was attached to my hair, and that my hair would get shorter every time I stuck it out. I really liked long hair ... still do. To this day, I don't stick out my tongue!

I used to believe that you could curl your hair by twirling a strand of hair wrapped around your finger

I went to Sunday School with a Christian friend of mine and she told me if I converted my hair would become straight because all Jewish people had curly hair like mine.Straightening irons,not religion,took care of that "problem" when I got older.!
