I just bought a $19.95 book on haircare, and some of the things I read in it disturb me. Basically, almost everything you do to your hair causes hair damage: simply running your fingers through it, brushing, combing, towel-drying, shampooing, etc. inevitably chips away bits of the hair's cuticle.

But what interested me most is that the author wrote that braiding, putting hair in a bun or a ponytail causes MORE damage because the hair is rubbing against itself, causing friction.

I mostly wear my hair in a ponytail, and I just checked in the mirror—and yes, the hair that  I regularly tie together to hold my pony IS more damaged and thinner than the rest of my hair.

Yet other long-haired people swear that a bun or a braid is the best way to protect your hair. The book says otherwise.

So what am I supposed to do? I have hip-length hair, and the thought of keeping it down all the time makes me feel nauseated. Also, there is the risk of hair getting caught in things.

So, how do you guys wear your through the day ? Up or down?

Contagious enthusiasm: a potent force for good in the universe

(And it's a really wonderful story, too! Lucky music teacher.)

The preorder period for Skin Horse Volume 1 is going great. Thanks very much to everyone who's placed orders so far. As a special bonus, I will sign and sketch a character in every copy preordered by July 31. That's right: all preorders get signatures and sketches!

Preorders can be placed here:

http://www.skin-horse.com/store.html

Also, it has come to my attention that some people are unaware that the entire run of Narbonic is available in print. Because it is! And if you order all six volumes together, I'll sign and sketch in each volume. You can order Narbonic books here:

And yes, I agree it's inconvenient having separate stores for Narbonic and Skin Horse. This will be remedied soon, but we're not ready to make the big announcement just yet. Keep watching the skies.

Should universities require all undergrads to be schooled in logic, especially the informal and formal fallacies?

I vote yes.

Sarah Palin's recent twitter statement.

karnythia and I talk about Race Fail 09, how Hollywood insults everyone, Verb Noire and a lot of other stuff. It's a bit quiet in places because I could use better tech, but listenable. We do talk about comics and gaming, as well.

I am wearing my lucky hot pink underpants and Superman T-shirt. BRING IT ON, UNIVERSE.

Hi I joined this community today, just going to introduce myself a little bit. My name is Kellie I am twenty years old and been married for three years come October. We don't have children nor plan on having them, we have kitties! I have been overweight now for 4-5 years, I always made wimpy less then serious attempts to loose weight because I really hated exercise. I am currently 160lbs at my highest I was around 220lbs so I have already lost a nice amount. My goal weight is 130lbs. I am loosing weight for myself and also so I can join National Guard and maybe after college go active duty. My method of weight loss is a nice cardio/weights workout routine 9 cups of water a day 1000 calorie max. diet and no eating out! All good food, luckily I live on a blueberry farm(lol) so if I want a little afternoon snack just walk out there and get some. :)

Before I joined I read a lot of the posts and comments on here and it seems like everyone is so caring of others and super supportive. Some posts are extremely inspiring and others very informative thank you everyone for being awesome!!

Today's plans include making my own shower jelly. Possibly making some foaming bath salts too. Because the internet is full of instructions and I am full of curiosity. Also, I'm contemplating the whole Frenzy as a serial idea. What's a good chapter length? In my head it's 20 pages, but is that too long for the web?

It would be nice if my insides did not decide they wanted to escape whenever the heat and humidity rise.

Also, Vista decides to go crackers at the worst times. Thank the Goddess for Ubuntu.
