my grandmother, god rest her soul, had long hair for a good portion of her life. after her 5th child she had some problems and had to have a histerectomy (sorry for the spelling). she then started to have major hot flashes and decided to cut her hair real short to keep it off of her neck. she said it was like having a blast furnus (spelling) running full blast all of the time.

my question is for those of you experiencing menopause, does it effect how you feel about long hair and how do you handle this situation?

I went through an early menopause at the grand 'old' age of 27 and its awful i took loads of tepid showers for the sweating but also took a soya supplement and switched from cows milk to soya and this made a huge different, it helped with the mood swings too. hope your Gran is feeling better soon, its the most horrible thing to go through xx
