What do YOU do?

[Guest guest]

I wear my hair very short now. I used to have shoulder length hair but because of shoulder pain, hands shaking and pain in hands I have a "pixie" short hair cut. It looks good on me because I am a petite woman and short, 4 feet 11. My hair is also straight so I just wash it and towel dry it and that is it. Don't need to do much to it at all. Very easy and simple. As soon as it starts getting a little unruly, I go and get a cut.

I let my hair grow out and pull it into a pony tail or just pull it back and put a barrett in at the nape. Sandie -- What do you do? What do you do when you hurt so bad you can't fix your hair? Do you get a wig? Do you get a hairstyle that needs little fixing? Do you shave your head and get a cute hat? Seriously- what do you do? I'd like to hear from others how you deal with this? I feel better when I look better, if only to me.

Very short hair for me too - see pic at http://www.fms-

help.com/fibro.htm - mainly had to go to this short hairdo because of

sweating a lot. Hard to believe I used to have almost waist length

hair. But no more...here in Florida it was unbearable - like wearing a

fur hat!

I use clip on hair pieces after I pull my hair back in a bun.

I had my hair cut really really short. I had always wanted a real short cut anyhow, but was always afraid to try. Finally I had to admit that I couldn't style my hair on a daily basis, so I got a really short cut. I asked my hairdresser to give me a cut that I had to only blow-dry. I'm very happy with it.

Short hair no fuss cut wash and towel dry brush and go. Thats all I can handle. Have a great day!

Never miss a thing. Make your homepage.

Ditto on the short hair. I can't manage a blow-dryer, and my 'do works

out just fine. Just fluff and go.

My problem is it needs to be trimmed every 6-7 weeks, and the

stylist's chair give me neck and back trouble. I try to schedule body

work (massage or PT or chiropractor) visit shortly after the haircut.

Sometimes it seems we can't win for losing, right? (sigh)

Obviously we know we are now being confronted with the

potential for yet a whole new invasive and insidious form of ridicule and

disrespect...camera phones. It happens when we least expect

it, while we are doing the same normal things everyone does...only

OUR image doing these normal things gets uploaded on the Internet

for ridicule. Awww, why don't these images by strangers ever get uploaded

because our uniqueness INSPIRES in how we live and surmount our

challenges? [sigh]

When we become aware someone has their camera phone out collecting our

image, what should we do or what should we say? Should we even try?

Recently, I became aware of a middle aged man taking my image as I

returned a shopping cart to its' place in a parking lot. My blood raged

within and I didn't dare open my mouth for what could have come pouring out,

but I did flamboyantly curtsey and bow. The rage I felt turned into a

" Ka-Ching. " Yet I am not sure this is the best way either.

Some of you have actually talked to the perpetrator and even

successfully demanded the picture(s) be deleted while you watched

them being deleted. A part of me SO applauds this, and yet I cannot help

but also fear it could possibly be dangerous. And can we be absolutely

sure that what is deleted IS actually deleted? Can we be sure?

Anyway, by addressing this here, and the best ways we can all deal

with these people, we become " armed " with the knowledge NOW for a potential

situation later...we can then know how to best respond in the moment. This

may also help our many dear parents of LP's here too,

if they should find themselves confronted with someone infuriatingly aiming

a camera phone at their child.

What do YOU do when a camera phone is being aimed at you? If it

hasn't happened yet, what WOULD you do if this happens?

i don't know either to do, confront or walk on. tho it hasn't happened to me

yet, or that i know of, but ironically when i do find such a video or image caps

online, before i open them up i almost anticipate that it might be me. I am out

there in the public a lot, and i think it's only a matter of time when i will

actually find me on someone's you tube or photobucket or like account, sigh

too:(. what i find ironic also is that those who usually vid cap us are the same

ones who would never be our friends or say stupid things like a dwarf, ew, etc.

thus, if they dislike us that much wouldn't you turn the other way when seeing

us? just a thought?

people are strange for sure. it's like a few out there have a weird morbid

curiosity about us, even tho they would never be our friends or even attempt

too, but they will stop their car or dead in their tracks to snap a pic of us,

go figure? and more sad is that I see women lps get it more, probably every time

a lp guy is vid capped, 2 females are, or 66% or 2/3rds of the women are

compared to the men. what makes me sicker yet is when is an lp kid is vid capped

and then even made fun of via what is called, video response, on you tube. some

might know the viral sensation who has a rare form of dwarfism and who loves to

make singing vids, he even made one with hip hop singer, 50 Cents. well, he is

only 15, maybe 16 now(?) and i have seen 40+ year old plus men make fun of him,

mocking him, etc, and i think wow, if you're 40 and you got to mock a teen, no

matter how silly you may have truly thought he is to you, you have a problem, a

mental one.
