I just registered, but I have been  lurking for several months!!  I have one burning question I must have answered!!!
What the heck are cones????????  I know to avoid them, but I don't know what they look like to run from.
And is it ok to use a wooden comb when your hair is wet?  I used mine and it lost a part of one tine and is now ragged there.  Did I do that with water? or is the comb as cheep as it was cheap?(4$) I can sand it smooth.

All that aside, I am a 65 yr old lady who needs to have her hair long to get up off her neck for reasons of heat, I think my thermostat is broken!!  Actually I take a couple of drugs the doc says is giving me the power surges that make me sweat, heavily in the hair.  My mostly still brown hair is just above BSL and I am growing out some perms that have done it dirty.  My hairdresser and I have agreed no more perms.

I love seeing all your secrets and experiences with your hair.  Too bad I waited so long to let it grow forever, my forever is getting shorter!!

Thanks for the help, Nan

I used my first wooden comb on wet hair all the time, and it warped, becoming a curved comb.  It was subtle at first, then quite noticable, not quite a parenthesis (), but close.  I don't use it on wet hair anymore.
