Ingredient analysis
Okay, so here was something interesting: Luksus Balsamspray til Normalt Hår Uden Parfume and Mild Balsamspray til Normalt Hår Uden Parfume have almost the same ingredient list. In fact, the only difference is in a single ingredient. Ingredient number 8 in both products: Hydrolyzed collagen in Luksus Balsamspray til Normalt Hår Uden Parfume, where as Mild Balsamspray til Normalt Hår Uden Parfume instead has allantoin as ingredient number 8. So hydrolyzed collagen is luxurious, where allantoin is mild. Alrighty then.

Weight of hair

Today on "Weird things you find yourself wondering about": How much does my hair actually weigh?
Since my hair haven't been near water since yesterday, I thought it was a good time to check. I'm guessing it grows way, way heavier with any moisture exposure.


And the answer is: 172-175 grams. 
Or 6.067- 6.172 ounces. 
I actually thought my calf length hair would be heavier?

(And yes, I felt a bit silly. Can you tell?)

Blog aniversary

On January 26th 2011 I put the first blog post up on this blog space. Wow.
10 years!
Time flies!
I blogged pretty much since I first found LHC back in... 2001? 
But this blog is on an independent platform, so it feels more like my own.
