Plus perms weren't mentioned.      That is what I am missing but shouldn't be too long that I will be ok to get that done again.          The hair has to grow out a bit more yet.

Love your attitudes,

HATE to post this, but y'all need to be aware PPD (Paraphenylenediamine) is a component of hair dyes sold in Canada/USA. Also used in tire formulas etc. etc.  Banned in Europe, due to deaths. Related to cancer and the brain. Food for thought: applied to hair follicles, originating in pores on the scalp, absorbed into the brain tissues.

Sorry to be such a party poop, I want the survivors to be happy and healthy. Be careful, be aware.

Oh great - now I guess we have to be happy and healthy with grey hair!   :'(

Just out of curiosity, what do Europeans use to color their hair?  Maybe they don't grey hair?   ???

Secret apparently. Trying for several years to have European hair dyes imported.
And/or formula (-PPD) made public. Just a guess, but perhaps Revlon, L'oreal,...etc. those in the multi million/ billion corps. blocked it , loss of revenue?

Be that is it may, deadly combination. Beauty at what cost?

What about henna? Isn't that supposed to be safe and natural?

Well, that settles it - next time I need my hair colored, I'll borrow Phyl's private jet and go to Europe!   :)

I hope it's a large jet, I'm thinking you'll have a lot of company with all the forumites who color  - and I don't mean with crayons  ;)

Just so you will all know - I now have political aspirations - I think I am well on my way:  I've got the soccer mom thing down PAT (also tennis, volleyball, piano, basketball, figure skating, & gymnastics - ALL of which we are doing RIGHT now!) and I am VERY involved in PTA.  I'm not the President yet, but I over all the "Chairs" for 5th Grade Activities so I have a good start!!  Will everyone support me since I have also had a ACOUSTIC NEUROMA?? I bet that would be the 1st person in a major office that had a brain tumor (besides Kennedy)!!   I figure that way, I would have a REAL plane and a reason to come around & see all you guys instead of being stuck out here in West Texas!!!   ;D    ;D    ;D

Kay - you've got my vote!  But you have to promise to use that jet to transport us to our hair appointments in Europe.  I'm thinking Italy would be nice... we could get some good food and wine before we come home!   ;D

And I just have to say, you must get very bored sitting around doing nothing all day long!   :D

It is really hard - it is just so boring here!  Right now I am consumed with trying to get food donated for 600 people for out school's Hoedown.  The girls that were supposed to get it donated have not done thier job and now it is 3 weeks away!  YIKES!!  Since I am over all of that, I need to get it done.  Just like my daddy (& Sebastin) always said, "If you want something done right, you better do it yourself!!"
