Briony, I do remember that hairspray, I bought it because it was cheap. Yes, my hair was as stiff as a board sometimes ha ha.<br />Darla, my auntie permed my hair once, it was like an afro style, I hated it.Meanqueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02705837426373680532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-21724940761527780422011-08-12T18:57:32.369+01:002011-08-12T18:57:32.369+01:00From Eileen M

I went on to the newpaper site yesterday and left a comment on the article. (Love the photo). I had to sign up to something to do this and leave a photo for my profile. I left a pic of my beautiful cat, sitting on top of my moniter watching me type.

I used to buy make up from there and Sloggies for my Mum. I also got a super duper pair of speccies, with a magnetic pair of sunglasses which clipped on and just looked like one thing, you can't get them any more.<br />I also got a lovely pair of rimless specs at the same time.Campfirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06573797205145907726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-82491143546821302072011-08-12T08:27:08.608+01:002011-08-12T08:27:08.608+01:00Mum used to put my hair in rollers when I was tiny...Mum used to put my hair in rollers when I was tiny. I can remember how tight and painful they felt and my dad sticking up for me when I said I didn't want curly hair any more.<br />I've been to our T.J.Hughes recently too. They had v cheap bras because of the closing sale. Pity it is only when they are closing down that the shoppers become interested.Old She dragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13154001132679090442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-8339003028930755662011-08-12T08:08:50.894+01:002011-08-12T08:08:50.894+01:00I wore these to bed or the sponge ones.

In college I washed my hair at night,rolled my hair, and slept with this big thing like a plastic shower cap that was attached to a hose that was attached to a hair dryer. I wish they sold those now. It was really good for white noise so other girls noisiness would not wake me. I hate my straight hair and wanted curls or volume, anything. HA! I have had a similar post started for the last two months! I might finish it in a year.Practical Parsimonyhttp://www.practical-parsimony.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-57055801901446020562011-08-12T07:38:08.312+01:002011-08-12T07:38:08.312+01:00I have my hair cut super short to get rid of the c...I have my hair cut super short to get rid of the curls so can't understand this at all.

My hair's long but I just wash it and let it dry on its own. Don't fuss about it, if I want it tidy, just tie it back. I spend less time on it that I ever did when it was very short or even medium length, when I was always blow drying it.Campfirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06573797205145907726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-77676743839580715642011-08-11T21:21:45.846+01:002011-08-11T21:21:45.846+01:00Liverpool is the place to go to see roller wearing...Liverpool is the place to go to see roller wearing around town.

My hair's not long enough now to get even the smallest ones in...GOOD!<br />I think it's awful that there are so many established companies closing down - it wouldn't have anything to do with all the cheap Chinese imports would it?
