Now, let’s say, you shaved your head 14 different times, than doubled the hair up making it 7 times in length. Than you tied all or your hair together with some type on hair knot, Than you would have an all hair thingy that would be strong enough to lift a man’s weight.

Fairy tales are real, look to the sky at night, and listen to the nature sounds of the day… lo l ;) // :) \\ :0 ( :))-body==

If the man was too use his body weight, it would rip the hair out of the girls head because it’s so long, or even worse rips the scalp off, Now, if the hair was tied in a knot at the top of the rail of the balcony, than it might just be possible to lift a man’s weight because it wouldn’t be affecting her scalp, the roots of hair. Than at the same time, the more long hair gets, the weaker it gets.

I don’t think color of hair will have any factor of strength. Hair strength is more based on of healthy a person is, an overall healthy person will have stronger more lushful lovely hair. Hair is after all just dead skin cells, so if you had healthy skin cells, you will have healthy hair. Genetics in terms of hair strength also play another factor. Product in the long term will cause your hair to not be as nice, so less is better,Product only helps in the short term, then your hair gets addicted

hehe, that’s cute. Hair color is based on the sunlight that your assisters have gotten plus the sunlight you have gotten in your life time. This explains why Northern Europeans such as people from the Netherlands have Blonde hair and blue eyes. This is because their assisters have gotten much less sunlight thus they have lighter skin, hair and eyes. This also explains why, Africans and Asians have darker skin, eyes and hair, it's more sun exposure throughout history. To our next point
