Mama Said: Glued-in hair

Hair. My mother is obsessed with hair. She is continually commenting on other people’s hair and she’s continually changing her own hair. During one of her phases, she decided she needed to do something about the thin spot on top of her head. So she cut up a little synthetic hairpiece and attached hunks of hair to the top of her head with super glue. She called me to tell me what a wonderful improvement it was, that I should try it, and she didn’t know why no one had thought of it before. In a couple of days the glued-in synthetic hair pieces started coming out, taking with them chunks of her actual hair.
