Hair washing

That’s hard because bathing always makes me feel truly awful. It makes my heart act up because of the warm water. And if I use colder water then it causes my fibromyalgia to get worse and my muscles cramp up.

I think a cute little short haircut would be great. I think I’m going to do that myself. I already cut most of it off a little while ago so why not just go all the way short? Do it. I bet it would be awesome and would give you much relief.

I think I’m going with this haircut. It’s really similar to how I used to get it cut, so I know it’s super easy to style if I want to be fancy.

That’s a cute cut.

I struggle with the same thing. I don’t know why, just a tiredness and not wanting to deal with the effort of getting an outfit together be it clothes for the day or pajamas and being nude in the bathroom before and after the shower.

Feel great in the shower and after. Love feeling of freshly clean. It’s just getting there. All the steps.

I hope you can find a solution that works for you.

I really like your hair short like that. You definitely have the face for it.

That is completely adorable.

Also, I think we have similar hair - I tried to go no poo but it didn’t work out for me. I’d love to hear if you can make it work.

I keep my hair very short and only wash it once a week. When I first get it cut, they use a #2 clipper up to the crown and then scissor cut it finger length. I love the low maintenance and don’t miss my long hair at all. Mine is even shorter than Aribar’s I think.

I sometimes get a hair hate…it happens when my hair gets too long…like a rag…my face looks best with medium short hair…but now my hair is almost long…and not good quality…also its easier to wash short hair…

One think what worked …i used an expencive shamoo that made my hair feel really pleasent. it kind of helped me not to cut it.

I badly want a short pixie cut but my husband doesn’t want me to cut my hair. It’s a big sadness for me. I try to like long hair but I hate it. Such a hassle to dry. I try to tell myself hippies have long hair to try cheer myself up. Sometimes it works but not other times. When I go into mixed manic mode all I want to do is chop it all off but I’m scared hubby will get upset :confused:

I also struggle with washing my beard. I don’t want to shave but it’s a problem

So what if he gets upset. What kind of jerk is he if he wont even let you cut your hair?!?!

You should be able to cut it however you want. He’ll get over it if he loves you.

My negatives aren’t much of an issue now, but I still only bathe every other day since my sweat glands are under-active.

I used to have such strong negatives that I’d spend like 30 minutes in the tub fighting for the willpower to get out. Now it’s just in / wash for 10 minutes / out.

@LED you are a nice person but I do not appreciate you calling my husband a jerk. It’s hurtful. You don’t know the full story so please don’t judge. Okay?

End of story :blush:

I hate washing my hair. I do it in the kitchen sink, because I can’t be in the shower too long. But I hate dirty hair. I wouldn’t cut your hair.

I really struggled with keeping my hair clean when it was longer. I hated the way it took four hours to fully dry. It made me cold all day or night, and I hated blow drying it, too. I only showered and washed it when Mr. Star would kick me out of bed for smelling.

Since getting it cut short, I shower and wash it pretty much every day. It’s so much easier now. I just shower in the morning, have my morning breakfast, and then it’s dry and perfect!

I have this haircut

Why not try to compromise with your husband? Like get a shoulder length cut. Can you do that?

It’s a good idea but funny me - I like either very short or very long so I will try to go with very long. If not then maybe shoulder length. :blush:
