Dear Miss,

I'm still not cutting my hair, and brushing it only damages it more. I will however strive to use conditioner every day as opposed to every other day.

Thank you for the comments about deodorant, more people need to wear it every day. However, I'm a bit confused...

Wait, why can't hair be long and kempt (this goes for both males and females)? Also, why should people who don't get cold in this kind of weather wear clothing that their own sensibilities would find unpleasant?

Ilana, there is a difference between disagreeing with my statements and being genuinely confused about the subject matter. If the things I'm saying are really perplexing you, and you fail to understand the wording, then use confused. if you disagree, then say that.

Also, i didn't say that long hair was necessarily messy and unkempt. I did imply, though, that it would look better shorter. The sentiment applies more strongly to the men around campus than the women... as quite often men have longer-than-suggestable hair on account of being too lazy to cut it.

Mine started out that way, then I found that if I get it regularly trimmed, keep it conditioned, and pull it back it falls in marvelous little ringlets as opposed to being a giant ball of super frizz.

I was, in fact, confused, as I didn't know what you meant by sensibilities in the earlier part or if you meant all long hair was bad or if only unkempt long hair was. I'm sorry if it seemed like it was just disagreeing, but I was genuinely confused.

However, it's a lost cause. Beloit is a hippy school. Reality will come crashing down after graduation for everyone, rest assured.

It is my hair. I like it better longer. I brush it. I put it in braids and ponytails and buns. My hair.

Deodorant is disgusting. Never worn it in my life, and never will. Daily showers work just fine for me, and it doesn't help that I'm allergic to the perfume in most deodorants.

Smell control, not necessarily deodorant?

My new deodorant is kind of vilely sugary. Ew, ew.
