What Do You Do With the Hair Clippings after Your Hair Cut? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14917)   ranked 451 out of 27,704 in life1 year ago

If you have someone else cut your hair, do you let them dispose of your hair clippings, or do you request them for your own use? If so, how do you use your hair clippings?

If you cut your hair at home, what do you do with the hair clippings?

What would you do with hair? Make a bed out of it??? I would just throw it away! Maybe leave it outside on the deck for the birds to use in their nests. Otherwise, I would just throw it in the trash.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14917)   ranked 451 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

I don't know what you would do with the hair, MusikSpieler. That is the whole point of the discussion. I will put you down for saving up to make a bed out of your hair. Or perhaps you will make a small bed for a pet. Maybe even a pillow?


myLot reputation of 87/100. MusikSpieler (121)   ranked 6,597 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

Maybe I could make a deal with the local barber. They would get 10% of the profit from my hair pillow/pet bed business.

Now you're thinking! It would also help alleviate some of your summer boredome.:p

No Trans I leave them at the Hairdressers to dispose of them
They are no use to me what soever lol so the Hairdresser can do what she likes with them
When I had my Hair trimmed at home I would brush them up and put them in the Bin


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14917)   ranked 451 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

I imagine this is what most people do, gabs. I have heard of people spreading their hair around their gardens to keep out certain animals, but I don't know what animals or if it even works.


myLot reputation of 93/100. gabs8513 (17558)   ranked 898 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

Thats strange I wouldn't know either what Animals those are I have never heard of it

I have someone else cut my hair and dispose of it. Where do you come up with these questions? I am not sure if I am amused or upset that I did not think of them first! Have a truly great day Transdisc!


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14917)   ranked 451 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

I don't know where the questions come from, kimlot. Someone else started a discussion today asking if we have talked about all the topics that we possibly could. I don't think that we have, do you?

:)


myLot reputation of 98/100. kimlot (4333)   ranked 3,430 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

No, there is always room for something new or the same but different!

Actually hair clippings are the best thing you can put in your garden compost. But I just leave them at the salon. I think they would give me a strange look if I asked them to take it home.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14917)   ranked 451 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

Aha, here's someone who knows a different way that hair can be used. Why is hair good for the garden compost, WhatsHerName?


myLot reputation of 44/100. WhatsHerName (1740)   ranked 6,901 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

I guess because they decompose so fast.

I get mine cut and thinned once a year at the salon, and they donate it to charity. Speaking of which I should make an appointment it is suppose to start getting hot here.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14917)   ranked 451 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

What kind of charity to the donate the hair to, sassy? How is the hair used?


myLot reputation of 95/100. mfpsassy (1155)   ranked 248 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

Locks For Love. They make wigs for people who have lost they hair due to cancer. A good cause and very easy to donate to


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14917)   ranked 451 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

I've heard of this. Does the hair need to be a certain, or minimum, length?


myLot reputation of 95/100. mfpsassy (1155)   ranked 248 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

It has to be at least 6 inches. I usually get anywhere from 8 to 12 inches cut

I look at them with fondness and longing, there are now so few.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14917)   ranked 451 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

hehehe, I know exactly what you mean, herrbaggs. It's getting to the point where I would save them and glue them on my head (as my son suggested) but unfortunately, there are not enough to make a difference!

I would have no reason to keep them, they can clean it and keep them, if Im paying for a hair cut the clean up is in the price. If its done at home, I will paste them into a scrap book....(only jokin)...Straight into the bin.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14917)   ranked 451 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

You had me going for a second there, Calais.


myLot reputation of 97/100. Calais (6371)   ranked 787 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

hehehe...Where were you goin? To go out and buy a scrap book.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14917)   ranked 451 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

Yeah, I guess so.

Nah, I just throw it away or have it thrown away. It's long now, so if I ever cut it maybe I should keep it huh? Not sure what for -- maybe it could be donated to charity to make wigs of or something.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14917)   ranked 451 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

Yeah, I bet that you could donate it if you ever choose to chop it off, JanuaryRain.

No matter if I cut my hair at home, or if I have my hair cut by a professional, my hair clippings get thrown away. My oldest daughter has donated her hair twice to Locks Of Love, which makes wigs for cancer patients. My hair has never been long enough. My youngest daughter wanted to donate her hair so bad, but it was too damaged and after the cut all the damage off, it was too short. So, she is growing it out again in hopes of donating it.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14917)   ranked 451 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

That's sweet of your daughter to donate like that, wellamoose. How was her hair damaged?

I trim my own hair due to the fact they always cut too much off..I have very long hair. I trim my bands and ends and then throw it in the trash....my hubby actualy saved his hair and he has a jar he kept it all in...from when he was young....lol


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14917)   ranked 451 out of 27,704 in life  1 year ago

I should have kept my hair from when I was young because it's all gone now.:)
