Photohunt: Bad Hair
The photohunt theme this week is bad hair. I didn't have any good ones for the theme in my digital photography files, at least not of me. I had to resort to using old non digital photographs and the quality isn't great since my scanner isn't working well. The shot below shows how the magic kingdom was too much excitement for my hair. My daughter's hair is a lot more tame. I think the shot is from about 12 years ago. My pony tale is flying straight up behind me.
I'm not sure when the shot below was taken but I'm guessing it was pretty near the end of my father's life which was 1998. I am at the beach with my father and I think you'll be able to make out how I have this frizzy halo effect in spite of having my hair pulled back. 
I'll look forward to seeing the other bad hair photos. In spite of having notoriously bad hair, I was surprised that I didn't have more shots to choose from. I think I tend to throw away bad hair shots of me and it hardly seemed fair to post the bad hair shots I've kept of other people and then use them on a post like this.

PS I lyke this song here, but I wood rekamind that if sumboddy haz flees in their hare, they shoold get sum uv this stuff cawled 'Frontline'. It werks. There isn't no bugs on me. : )
Let it fly in the breeze
And get caught in the trees.
Give a home to the fleas in my hair.
A home for fleas.
A hive for bees.
A nest for birds.
There ain't no words
For the beauty, the splendor, the wonder
Of my...
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it,
Long as God can grow it,
My hair.

I love your shots for the theme.
Have a wonderful weekend :)
Wow - love the first one - looks like it was loads of fun!
Happy Weekend.
I'm a chicken... every day is a bad hair day...so I played safe...
My favorite is the action shot. My sister's hair does the halo thing you have going on in the second shot...
Just the same as we have in amusement parks in Norway - getting a bit of bad hair is the whole point isn't it?
Wishing you a great end to your week :-)
I never even thought to check pics on rides - I bet I've got some scary hair ones like yours!
I see the frizz!! Aw, that doesn't look too bad.
I always get bad hair days...Happy hunting.
This week's theme is hard to do, but you did a good job.
Happy hunting~
hahaha.. my hair was so messy after playing the roller coaster too.. or blow by the wind...
great photos ms carver, bad hair huh
Haha your first photo does look fun! :D
I couldn't find any bad hair shots of ME... I fell back on the recent favorite!
hahahhahah~ The first shot made me laugh!! My daughter has got a photo just like that as well.Never fail to make me laugh whenever I look at it :P
Funny. My wife always goes with the kids on those kinds of rides. I hate them.
That's a lot of fun on the first pic:) Nice photos! Mines up too!
My hair looked worse when I took that ride in the theme park! It wasn't tied up and my hair was flying everywhere. lol
It's cool that you got a shot of you in the roller coaster. I would love to see of me & my hair flying in the air too. :)
Those rides always make me look terrified, I should go find ours from last month...I bet my hair looked awful! LOL! I posted a pic of my daughter.
Oh that first shot brings back many memories of the happiest place on earth!
I am the same way -- I feel every day us a bad hair day for me. :-) Or at least there are more bad ones than good ones. But I couldn't find any pictures of myself with bad hair, at least not in the digital ones. Mine does what yours does when it is windy and humid. I love the one on the ride. Now that is a time to let hair blow and not worry about it. :-)
You're braver than I am in more ways than one. I'd never go on a roller coaster - again! lol Looks like you're having fun though! :D
Carver that's a great shot for the first one, with your hair flying out behind. Have a great weekend
Cool..I have never thought of roller coaster shots. Great idea Carver :)

happy weekend!
wow....! the first picture is just great!!..i love the way that ponytail rise...hehe
Pearl - happy weekend
Carver, that braided hair, no matter how I try to tie my hair, curly tendrils tend to come out :) Love the first shot, wheee!
Hair on a roller-coaster has to fly - it is a sign of the fun. Love the frizzy one too :)
I love that hair
Yes i agree with Sue its the first shot its a bad hair day weeeeeeee...Happy hunting!
meloves the first photo too!
Heehee re your first shot! Love rollercoasters and water rides!!! :)
I have lots of photos from that ride at Disney! Actually, I have lots of photos from ALL the rides at Disney... Lived 20 minutes from the gate and had annual passes!
Love the shot of you and your Dad!
Carver, I am on my laptop, but for some reason I cannot email ! haaaaa
I just realized to that I never did a bad hair post on my blog (only on my side by side)
SO thank you and sorry for the inconvenience. I did do one for 14, 21, and 28 for my blog
I am having a fabulous time. Enjoy yours soon!
Fabulous photos! Love both of them...
Carver, you are so brave to show your own bad hair days! You gave me a good laugh though. Never look at old pictures of ourselves... :D
That hair flying behind you is great! :)
Oooh, I can relate to the frizzy halo picture. I have TONS of photos like of me when I was younger. WHY does it do that?!

Ditto! I usually delete any unflattering photos of myself too.
I have that frizzy effect all the time too.
Both are great photos. Love the look on your face in the first one.

Wonderful shots! I bet that second one is a treasured one!
Thanks to everyone for visiting. I'm enjoying visiting the bad hair posts. My cable modem has been acting up so if I don't visit that's why. Happy weekend.
The first one looks like fun, but the one of you and your dad is priceless, even if you did have a case of the frizz that day. Have a great weekend!
I think I have the same hair, it just flys around even on wet, cold days

thanks for your visit and could you please delete the first link title - lissa -in your mr. linky? that was a mistake, thanks.
I love the "hair" action shot in the first picture. That ride looks familiar - I love roller coaster rides. And that's a nice shot of you and your dad!
Don't you hate fly away hair? Mine drives me nuts.
Ain't it cool when you can blog about beautiful memories? Love your take on this. :)
Great shots, with some nice memories. I always get that frizzy halo effect as well. Nothing, not even hair gel, can prevent it. Have a lovely weekend!
Great choices for this week's theme Carver. Have a wonderful weekend
I took lots of bad hair photos in NYC this week, and I couldn't post them either. Wonderful photos for the theme, Carver.
The photos of me with bad hair are so hideous i refuse to post them! That fist photo is great. you must have been brave.
That first shot looks like so much fun! This is a great post.
That frizzy halo doesn't look bad at all.
Nice entries, guess you cherish that picture with your dad very much!
I have really bad hair as a rule fine and flyaway so I have cut it really short and it is so much easier and looks tidier too
I avoided that my hair or theirs question by going to the zoo.
I've had a few of those famous rides shot myself. Why do they have to have cameras on those rides, lol.
Happy Saturday,
Biker Betty
Great shot on the rollercoaster. My hair often has the "halo" look also.
I loved your bad hair posts. I just couldn't find the pictures I wanted... maybe next week when the madness that happens at the end of the school year winds down I'll have more time.
Still you are beautiful with that bad hair...See you in my blog leaving a comment..Thanks..
