    A bad habit to do with my hair which I need to break!
    I have recently started a really bad habit of rubbing my scalp with the ends of my fingers when I am sitting on a chair. I rest my elbow on the desk and use my hand to support my head (as many people do) but before I know it I'm rubbing my scalp and picking out bits of dandruff. I really want to stop doing this because I'm sure it's damaging my hair. On top of this it looks as though I have headlice, which I don't (though I did and I think I started this habit because I was paranoid about them returning) and by the time I've finished my hair looks like a nest! Please help!

    Maybe if you got rid of the dandruff you would be able to break the habit. And maybe wear your hair back in a ponytail or something so it's harder to mess up.

    Each time you notice your hand on your head try to think of something else. Try rubbing your temples instead. You'll get a small "reward" from it. (:
