Up until I was about 15 I believed that my Grandfather's hair was bleached white by acid rain. I still can't go out in the rain without feeling paranoid (I have dark brown hair, and I'd like to keep it that way).
A childhood belief about hair
others believed things like this
- i used to think tha if you went outside when it was acid raining the rain would burn holes in your skin— fear of rain

- I used to believe I could control the weather by singing rain rain go away or blowing the clouds away.— Shannon
- I was born brunette with brown eyes and dark hair, i thought people with blue eyes, had water in them.Anon
- I believed that if you ate a piece of your own hair, a new strand of hair would grow on your head.— Ryo
