2rottndogs Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Actually, it was just a lapse. I would normally never fess up to doing something so stupid, but since we're all friends here... I'm hoping you'll see the funny side of this like I do....now.I was burning a group of test candles... I was leaning over them (they're on a low endtable) to check them out and see how they were burning. I happened to see something on the floor that I wanted to pick up and momentarily forgot there were candles burning!I leaned down to pick this item off the floor and accidently stuck my bangs inside one of the jars that was on the edge of the table.*faint*Needless to say... I have had to "trim" my bangs and now I have baby bangs!My husband is just beside himself everytime he looks at me and all I can say is thank God I still have eyebrows! :laugh2: *thinking to myself everytime I look in the mirror* It's just hair, it's just hair!Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon in KY Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 OMG, good one. Bet you got a good throw from those bangs.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vio Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 OMG *taking notes* Do not kneel down by candles while testing! LOL It's funny but thank God you weren't seriously burned. Hair is great like that. What would we do if it never grew back? LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2rottndogs Posted December 9, 2007 Author Share Posted December 9, 2007 What would we do if it never grew back? LOL The first thing I would do is cry!Sharon... you just have no idea how BAD that smelled! Bobby (husband) looked at me after I trimmed my bangs and asked if I learned a good lesson! No sympathy going on there!The sad thing is much like when I was heating my glass pour pot in the microwave to get the excess off the edges and kept almost setting things on fire then.... it's going to probably take another lesson or 2 to really sink in.Never professed to being the fastest learner of the bunch!Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2rottndogs Posted December 9, 2007 Author Share Posted December 9, 2007 Learned a VERY valuable lesson OCCASIONALLY... I have issues with fire. Meaning every so often, I accidently burn something. My husband swears the smoke dectector is my done signal when it comes to cooking.:rolleyes2 Well.... I have officially learned to not #1. turn the microwave on for long periods of time when trying to loosen wax on the sides of containers, #2. some fo's are more volitile than others and #3. if you're going to leave a paper towel in the container to absorb wax as it melts, don't walk off! MOTHEROFGAWD!!!!! Needless to say, I had smoke! But!!! It doesn't stop there... I don't claim to be the fastest learner!:rolleyes2 I not only did it once, but I did it twice! LOL! Priceless... I wish I could have seen my face when I opened the microwave!Kimberly See.... I have had issues with fire on other occasions also! I knew there was a thread somewhere fessing up to some of the other stuff I'd done. Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandlekrazy Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Kim,Glad you're ok, and THANKS!!! I'm saving a copy of this thread...so when my DH decides I'm doing something dangerous, I can just show him this! As far as stupid stuff goes...I amaze myself every day! You're not alone there.

2rottndogs Posted December 9, 2007 Author Share Posted December 9, 2007 I try not to think very long and hard on the "thoughtless" things I do.... I think if I pondered too long, I'd be more scared than amazed!Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sassy906 Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 OH MY!!! Thank the stars it was only your bangs:shocked2: I'm glad that you are okay, but, you need to be a quick learner with fire!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandleKat Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Kim,This is serious - I'm so glad you weren't hurt! The only reason I can chuckle is because you were not hurt and I can't help but think - at least it's hair. I lost all my hair in chemo and it's just growing back. Talk about baby bangs!!!:DLet's post our pics and people will think we use the same hairdresser. lolKathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2rottndogs Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 LOL Kathy.... I AM a hair stylist!!! That's the funny part about this... my clients wont see my misshap until Thursday!Seriously though... the only thing hurt was my pride, my ego and my stunning good looks.Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erinmfritz Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Kim, I'm a hairstylist also, at least just for friends and family now, so I can imagine your embarrasment! The smell of burnt hair probably made it impossible to smell the candle! LOL. The good thing, at least you are a trained professional and can cut it to make it look like you meant to do it and not accidental!!!!!!On the brighter side, I'm glad to hear that your hair is growing back CandleKat! Hope you are doing well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandleKat Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Oh Kim - Whoopsie! Well, just tell your clients they haven't seen the lastest Angelie Jolie Pic. You took your latest look from her. Smashing!!!Glad to see you've got a great sense of humor!! That keeps us from getting to serious w/ourselves.Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
