Upon suggestion from my hair stylist I started using the Bosley shampoo and conditioner for color treated hair about 3 months ago. A little hair history - I am a 32 year old woman with two children. After having my first child (11 years ago) and getting hypothyroid disease my hair became very thin. Even with proper thyroid treatment, I was never able to regrow my thinning areas (mostly my front hair line). I never tried any type of regrowth product before. I am also 85% gray so I color my hair. I rarely blow dry, but I straighten with a flat iron every day. Because of my hair color and condition of my hair, I only wash it 3 - 4 x per week. So, I have been using the shampoo and conditioner 3 - 4 x per week for about 3 months. I didn't actually order it from amazon, I ordered bigger bottles from another company. I have 2 new layers of hair coming in around my front hair line. The first layer is now about 3 inches long and a few weeks ago, another layer started and it is about 1/4" - 1/2" long now. The regrowth is annoying in styling my hair and I can't put my hair back right now because I have the thick layer of short hair while the rest of my hair is long. I can't wait until it grows really long.

This was a fascinating subject to actually be reading about. I look around me every day and see the very things Charles Murray describes going on in this book. I lived on both coasts, and in the D.C. area around or actually in the elite zip codes. We now live in a small town in Texas south of San Antonio. I took the class test in the book and learned that I am first generation middle class. I am going to boost myself to upper middle class - everyone in Texas owns a truck as one of their vehicles don't they? That should not count against you. It will be interesting to see how the author's predictions for our future play out. I am a "none" when it comes to religion. I do volunteer quite a bit and am involved civically. I am a college educated traditional homemaker with two children and a supportive husband. So there may be hope that we can move toward a secular society that still works to preserve the community without the compulsion of religion's punishments or heavenly brownie points. Thanks to Charles Murray for opening the discussion and actually pointing out the obvious problems involved with continuing to indulge unwed mothers, unemployed healthy young men and the new growing welfare state. It may be a topic for another book, but it seems that a section on personal choices (spending, meals, and attitudes toward education) and their use by the different classes in depth would be useful. Now if we can get one of these books into the hands of everyone in the voting public we may be able to stop this run-away train. Anyone reading this and not able to confirm what Charles Murray is claiming probably lives in "the bubble."
