Dear Renny... asked in Beauty & StyleHair · 1 decade ago

How can I break this bad hair habit?

I have had this habit that I've done since I was a baby and had long enough hair and it's very hard to stop. I play with my hair in a way that it splits my ends and I have to get a hair cut so much more often then I should. It's almost like a nervous habit- it's very comforting to me to play with my hair this way but I really need to stop. Help!!

    Keep a small bit of cloth with you and twist it around your fingers (worry it, etc) when you get nervous. Hopefully you can transfer the habit over to the cloth and stop hurting your hair.

    it is okay to have a bad habit, but the way to stop this habit is to distract ur self and do something else that will make u not think about ur hair.
