Searches & Hair Update.

Now that I’m “out there” again, so to speak, with no password to hide behind, I thought it’d be fun to mark the one month anniversary of this landmark occasion by sharing the search terms which have brought guests to my blog in the past 30 days!

Oh, how I’ve missed thee, Google search words!

Grouped by category, I present:

jammie, jammie j and http://jammiej.com
Congratulations! You have successfully found me by searching my Internet Identification. Anonymity is now a thing of the past! Unless, of course, you were searching for another Jammie J., in which case, I’ll have to sigh and say there’s only one REAL Jammie J. and you’re looking at her! Accept no imitations, I’m a one-of-a-kind gal.

locks of love, for locks of love, donated locks; and “locks of love” knees
A worthy cause, to be sure, but to be clear, I have not yet donated my hair to Locks of Love; maybe someday. The last search concerns me just a bit because i do have that Crazy Hair that lives behind my knee — I’m really not at all confident that Locks of Love would be interested in my rogue knee hair.

discipline lillle boys
I lay no claim to being an expert on disciplining boys of any type, lillie or otherwise. I can, however, with confidence, refer you to my friends “Charmed,” who is raising five of them, Vince, who is raising two of them, or my sister-in-law, Marigold, who is raising two of them. Boys, that is. Healthy, strong boys. Maybe you can find your answer there. Or maybe you’re trying to discipline your male garden lilies?

boy growth size story, story of the little boy
Jack and the Bean Stalk is a good one, if I remember right…

youngest boy to be dad
Yes, eventually the youngest boy can be a dad. Birth order has nothing to do with male fertility.

does dermaswim work and dermaswim complaint
Now this I am an expert on. Yes, Dermaswim works. The only fallible part of whether or not is works properly is whether I remember to put it on before I rush out of the house to go swimming. If you’re looking for complaints about Dermaswim Pro, you’ll not find them here.

endo is going to kill me
No, no it won’t. This I know for certain. Endo may debilitate you with pain and take away your ability to live life like a normal person, and sometimes the pain might make you wish you were dead, but you will live through it. Find yourself a good support system, hook up with an endo association, locate a doctor who is an expert on endometriosis. Don’t be afraid to try things — exercise, acupuncture, herbs — each woman is different and you need to find the thing that helps you get through this. Don’t give up.

i don’t know what is causing my brittle hair
I really don’t know either. Could be any number of things — could be something that might seem to be benign, like shampoo, or maybe you swim every day and have chlorine damage. Swimming in the ocean is bad for hair, too. Or maybe you got it stuck in a vacuum cleaner or a power drill. Not that I’m speaking from experience or anything, but those things have been known to cause brittle hair…

…and that’s it for the We’re All Searching for Something update.

Now for Week Two, No Shampoo Update.

My hair continues to feel great after I wash it with club soda and use my sulfate free conditioner, especially when it’s still wet and fresh from the shower. I only felt the need to use Scalpicin three times this week. My concern is that I may be battling an allergic reaction to chlorine on my scalp and I may not be able to discontinue Scalpicin.

One odd thing, though, on Thursday after my hair was supposedly dry, it felt odd… as if I’d used a “leave-in” conditioner, which I hadn’t. I don’t know if maybe that is the oily feeling that other women have reported? I’m really not sure. It did bother me enough that I put it up in a clip and that night after swimming I used a baking soda rinse after using club soda, hoping to break up whatever that coating was. It worked because on Friday my hair felt normal again.

My hair still tangles by late afternoon, but it’s definitely less of a snarled tangle knot and more of a hair-crossing tangle, if that makes sense. Maybe to other long-haired ladies it does.

Two weeks is done, and so far, overall, I’m still pleased. No picture this week, because it looks the same as last week.

  1. I get such a kick out of seeing what searches come my way. I could definitely tell you the top five: Gardenias, I hate my skin, touch control lamps, some picture from July 2007 (probably baby Barney), and Dishwasher magnet. Crape Myrtle spit used to be big but has dropped off, although with summer here it may make a comeback. Oh and the baby mockingbird has recently been getting a lot of hits. It’s funny to see what people actually type into their searches. People actually type into Google: I hate my skin. That’s kinda weird.

    My Sweetie is there at the Westin Bonaventure for E3. Blow a kiss in that direction for me.

    Good luck with your hair and I am so with you on carrots.

    Someday I’m gonna search “where is my memory” and click through to someone’s blog just to make their day. Oh heck, why wait for someday, I’m gonna do it now! πŸ™‚

    Ahhh, your Sweetie’s in our neck of the woods. *muwahh* πŸ™‚

  2. Oh too funny. I used to laugh myself silly at the searches that found me ; ) Now it’s pretty tame stuff…

    Oh, yes, I’ll bet you did back in the day. πŸ™‚

    lol. i kinda miss my old searches. i had some pretty good ones, too. hehe.

    i’m not really sure what you mean by the hair knotting thing, but when i saw you last, your hair looked fantastic πŸ™‚

    ***
    Yeah, you used to have a pretty crazy blog, pre-Mia. Now you’re all tamed. Hehe πŸ˜›
    Ugh, I meant “Thursday” last week, it was a day after I saw you that my hair got that weird conditioner dampness feeling.
    The knotting thing, my hair used to get these huge snarls just above the nape of my neck. Now the tangles are lower and are a result of rubbing against the back of the chair. I just know that’s gonna show up in google searches…

    I think someone once found my blog searching Jammie J! But it was something very specific, wish I had written down what it was. And yes, there is only one real Jammie J, but I think we each should have one….at least in each state, no?

    ***
    If there were one in every state, then that’d be 50 of me! I don’t think the world can handle 50 of me…. maybe you could, though. πŸ˜›

  5. Maybe they were really searching for lillie boys with brittle hair? πŸ˜‰

    Last night I made someone’s day by googling does arm pit hair grow before pubic hair…….

    yeah. Now they are going to find you. ! You’re welcome. πŸ™‚

    Do lillie boys have brittle hair?

    As for your google search, thanks for putting that right there. I can’t wait for those searches to come rolling in. *girds up*

    ~Jammie J.

  6. Charmed, no, pubic hair is supposed to grow before armpit hair. Just thought I’d throw that out there.

    I don’t think I even remember how to find out what searchs bring people to my blog.

    ***
    πŸ˜† You make me laugh with the random tidbits of knowledge you carry around in your brain!
    I don’t think I’d remember either, except WordPress puts it right there on the front of my admin page…

    i know. all tame and boring. i’ve gone back to read some of my old posts and DAMN, i was FUNNY. hehe ;P

    can’t wait to see you tomorrow πŸ˜€

  8. Yeah, my Google searches remain pretty entertaining. Scary sometimes, but entertaining.

    Glad to hear that going poo-less is still working. Ack! that you may be allergic to chlorine.

    Well, we’ll see… this week I’ve not had to use Scalpicin at all. Huh.
