What is the building code for a fire alarm?
I had perms, and my mom made pin curls in my hair. Later she used the pink rollers that you talk about.
Yes, to all these methods. I had shiny, slippery stick-straight hair and my mother tried everything to make it look nice, with varying degrees of success. One of the worst pictures was the time she wrapped it in rags and made banana curls and cut the bangs about 1/2 long. She fooled with it for the longest time and I ended up pouting and looking mean in the picture. A good many of our battles were about hair.
My two favourites were Snow White and Rose Red and Rapunzel. I think they stand out because my Nana had an old phonograph that played 78 records and both stories were on those records so I could listen to them over and over again. I believe it was 6 records, both sides for each story. Yes, I did sing Some Day My Prince Will Come. My mom had 2 individual bronze Siamese cats figurines that stood about 10 high. I'd get into one of my moms fancy nighties, grab one of those cat figurines and belt that song out with such passion and emotion. Hehehe I remember one day my mom was standing in the doorway watching me, grinning from ear to ear. She said you sound just like your Auntie Marian and then laughed. I never really knew my Auntie Marian so I don't know if that was a good or a bad thing!
If I understood all of your question correctly it sounds like you are just tanned. And of course, the parts of your body that aren't exposed to much/any direct sunlight because of your hair and clothing remain fairer. I usually do a lot of outdoor work during the summer so my neck/face/forearms are much more tanned than the rest of my body. The best things you can do are: Wear long brim hats and clothes that keep more of your skin covered. Use sunblock Limit your time in direct sunlight I don't know if you would consider it an option but I that many asian women carry umbrellas when it is sunny outside to help keep their skin fair.
As a child, my mother braided my hair. Sometimes even looped it and tied it with ribbons. I hated it. I wanted long coiled curls, like a little girl in church wore one Easter Sunday. I envied her hair, and her black pattent leather shoes. It wasn't until around sixth grade, mother allowed mine to be cut, and it was permed. And I wore it brushed up at the bottom. When the perm straightened more, I began pinning it into curls at night. And I took care of my own hair ever since. I went to foam rubber curlers when they were available, and shunned the brush rollers I hated. Later still, I went to the larger plastic rollers in highschool, when the 'bubble' look came in. Alot of us had 'bubble heads' back then LOL.
