I used to think "brunette" meant a woman with BLACK hair. Only when I was about 30 years old did I realize it meant brown hair.

Once when I was about 3, I went to my mother because something on my scalp hurt. She looked around and didn't find anything. She said "You probably just have a sore there" We live in the USA, in the northeast, so with the accent it sounded like "saw" I invisioned a tiny little wood saw with a red handle sticking halfway out of my scalp with hair like a forest all around it. I searched for that silly thing for years afterward, even after it didn't hurt anymore.

My girlfriend used to believe that shaving cream would actually let your hair fall out. (She didn't realize her mistake until I told her - she was 25 at the time...)

I think I was about six. I was sitting in the car with my mom, and a man with long hair in a ponytail walked past us. I pointed at him and said, "Look, mom, it's a cross between a man and a woman!"

I think her response was, "......Uh....."

When I was about 4 I saw a little boy in pre-school that had orange, spiky hair and everyone was calling him "Torch." I automaticly thought his head was on fire! So I took my cup of juice (we were eating lunch) and threw it on his head!

I remember being in the 3rd grade, and my older brother was in the 7th grade. He was older then me, so *of course* he knew everything. While at school oneday, I saw a girl in my class and her hair was long, eventho it was extremely short the day before! I just couldnt figure out how she got her hair long so fast. I asked my brother about it, and he told me that their mom stretched their hair. I believed that for a long time too!

I eventually learned about weave, lol. :]

I was bald until I was almost 3 years old. My older brother was always worried about my baldness and often asked my mother about it. My mother always assured him that I would get hair someday soon.

We had a small fire in our house when I was still young, and still bald. After the fire was put out by firefighters, the fireman took off his helmet to wipe the sweat from his brow. My brother immediately started crying. My mother tried to assure him that the fire was out and everything was okay. "No Mom, look! That man doesn't have hair and he's old!. Kim's never going to get hair, is she?"

When I was only a few years old I saw a bald man and asked my mother where his hair was as I never recalled seeing a bald person before this, and she told me he had lost his hair, so for several years after that I believed that anyone who had "lost their hair" had a wig of their hair hiding behind their stereo or under a chair in their house and they just couldn't find it, and I always wanted to go home with them to help look for it.

I live by the sea, and we all know that salty water makes your hair curlier. I have natural curly hair, and I always thought that the poor people far away from the sea have flat hair and if you live by the sea and have flat hair is because you don't like the beach. HUH????

When I was very little, I used to believe that the difference between boys and girls was the length of the hair. One time I saw a picture of my aunt when she was little and she had short hair, and I said to my mom, "Oh, was that when Aunt Bridget used to be a boy?"
