Bad Hair Days!

http://ap.tbo.com/ap/breaking/MGI6S3O4X3C.html

This just confirms my opinion that workplaces should give us a certain number of Bad Hair Days per year. We get sick days, family leave, personal days—haven’t we all come to the office with hair just so awful that we hide under our desk and take valium all day and can’t get anything done because we look like Edward Scissorhands?

I say, be like Sally Field in Norma Ray—get up on your desk with a hand-lettered sign reading BAD HAIR DAYS!

How true! On the other hand, hair (done well) can be a thing of beauty, and lift your spirits like nothing else.

Whoops! I probably killed this thread. I meant to post a thumbnail picture, not a huge one. I suppose there’s no chance of a moderator removing my previous post?

As an engineer, I don’t really concern myself with bad hair days too much. But honestly, I think workplaces should allow “Big Embarrassing Zit” days. I can’t tell you how many times I just wanted to stay home and scrub my face with Clorox and turpentine after discovering a huge shiner in the mirror that morning. Instead, I just went to work, hurried to my desk, and did my damnedest to avoid any form of human contact throughout the day. Although, this seems to be less of a problem as I approach 30, thank God.

On a side note, one Monday my cubemate and I came into work, both sporting really bad haircuts. Turns out, we had both visited the same barbershop that weekend. My cubemate proceeded to create a sign in PowerPoint that said “Bad Haircut Support Group” and hung it up.

A few years ago some of my coworkers and I were complaining to each other about the ever-increasing amount of grey that was showing up on our middle-aged heads. At one point our boss - who has been follicly challenged since his youth - walked by and said that he was constantly amazed that folks who had hair on their heads spent so much time worrying about what color it was.

Bear that in mind the next time you wake up with your hair a bit too frizzy for your tastes :slight_smile:

She is cute!! I think I will make that picture into my wallpaper.

Purr…she’s hot.

Don’t speak ill of your enemies; plot it.

I am 32 years old. Why in blue blazes am I still having bad hair days and bad skin days? I am too old for this crap! People my age are supposed to have control over things like their own hair and skin, aren’t they?

I don’t have any gray hair (women in my family go gray very late). But I can’t seem to figure out how to do a good 'do, you know? I have decent hair. My stylist is great, and knows I have kids and a job outside my home, so he gives me good, easy-to-care-for cuts. I watch him while he works. He doesn’t do anything difficult. Why can’t I make it look like that?

As for my skin, I’ve had zits since I was 12. Not the really bad, ravaging kind, but they’re a nuisance. And I can’t seem to get them to go away completely for any length of time. Argh.

I think we should get days off for this stuff. I have bad hair & skin days far more often than I’m actually sick.

When I have bad hair days, I grab a co-worker and she fixes it for me! :stuck_out_tongue:

When mine is showing attitude, I put in a pony tail or wait till I get to work and get one of the girls to french braid it for me.

I have a bad hair lifetime!

I have the stupidest, most uncontrollably annoying hair! Well, maybe not quite that bad, but I go into a barber/stylist/whoever, and say “I’d like my hair to do this, please,” and they go “Certainly sir, so how about them All Blacks, eh? yadda yadda…”

time passes

“Er… I’m sorry sir, I can’t actually cut your hair in that standard common style everyone else seems to have - I can, however, make you look like a dork for the rest of your life, how about that instead?”

“Does it still cost $15?”

“Yes it does sir”

sigh :rolleyes:

It’s falling out, going grey, and looks quite silly a lot of the time… I’m not happy with it, that’s for certain.

Actually, today is the first day in a long time I haven’t been having a bad hair day! I just got it all cut off (well, not all but enough) and had it colored (red.) It is very cute and for once–it is completely straight!!! Quite a feat!
