Ah yes. The old “roll your hair with organge juice cans” routine. I loved it when my Big Sis would do that. She later bought a set of “real” curlers that big. Still funny to think about.

I want to see a rasslin’ cage match between Cheryl Tiegs and Suzanne Somers. Both are sixty and look way better than they have a right to.

Yeah, those gals look great. I was thinking, “I wish I could look like THAT when I turn sixty, but heck, you have to have something to work with in the first place They don’t make orange juice cans the way they used to. Those cardboard thangs aren’t much use! Did you know you are a finalist in the Dear Abby contest??~skt

Well, I never wanted to look like a super-model, but I’ve been burnt to a crisp a time or two in my life.
Oh, and I love Noxema!

Thanks for participating in Manic Mondays!
cheers!

Did you ever want to look like a “guy supermodel?” Noxema…you and my granny! Mo, that stuff smells nasty! Oil of Olay is much nicer (but it doesn’t make me look younger ). Thanks for HOSTING Manic Monday! I enjoy getting to participate…when you give me words that work for me!~skt

Wow, what memories you brought back with your post. I remember longing to look like Cheryl, myself, but my dark curly hair and too-big nose were the objects of my despair. Even orange juice cans weren’t enough to give me smooth, shiny locks. :::sigh:::

The only experience I ever had that came close to yours was letting my dad cut my hair right before a date. BIG mistake, but even that doesn’t come close to second degree burns on the face! I felt your pain

Oh, letting your dad cut your hair was as big a mistake as mine! I’m sitting here imagining the horror of it, and cringing ~skt

Oh my… that’s just one of those horrible teen memories. Mine? I “picked” at my face so bad that it looked like I had the measles the next day with all of these little red spots on my face. i never did that again!

Eww! Mary! Did you get impetigo? Glad you learned that picking doesn’t lead to grinning!~skt

I gave myself second degree burns on my scalp trying to get the synthetic hair I used for braids to curl. The trick is to dip the hair rollled up in scalding hot water for ten seconds…the problem sponge rollers soak up the scalding hot water. LOL. Lesson learned. I loved this post. Have a great day!

OH NO! Scalp burns are awful, too! At least you DID learn the lesson! Lessons never “took” with me. Did you see I tagged you for a meme? Sorry! ~skt
