Why doe Yahoo! Answers think I have answers to people's hair questions?

Under "Recent Questions recommended" are a bunch of questions from girls wanting to dye their hair blonde. Why does Y!A think I would be able to answer these? I don't recall ever answering a question on this site about hair. BTW, ladies, if you need hair advice, the best I can give you is don't take any hair advice from me. I average about 1 haircut every 2 years.

    Must be cos you've answered a couple questions in Health & Beauty. Judging by what people are saying about this new suggested questions feature, I'm quite glad I'm not getting it yet. On the other hand, sounds as if it could be quite a laugh when the questions are totally inappropriate.

    Yes it is annoying when the questions are not suitable that are suggested. I went into my profile and edit the thing out, so I not longer get the suggestions that they recommend. I like to wander around the site and choose my own questions.

    Thanks for the hair advice, I will ask someone else then ha ha ha ha.

    must be a glitch just go to "my profile" and opt out of showing you suggested questions, i don't see why you would get hair questions when i see no evidence of you answering there, it's supposed to take into account your recent activity on answers.
