Hair toss, question for the ladies
As part of my safe driving practices when riding, I usually look through the vehicle in front of me to see what they are seeing out their windshield. Especially when stopped at a light. This lets me see what most people would considered to be blocked from sight.
This has happened so many times, well, I had to ask. The great preponderances of young female drivers will toss their hair at stop lights, or while waiting in traffic. So ladies, is this because you have nothing better to do with your hands when sitting at a stop light... or is this because a purple and yellow sport bike ridden by some mystery dude is right behind you? DON'T LOOK... is he still there? Did he rev that thing, better toss my hair again. School me, what's the 411

I only do it if I am having withdrawals from flipping pancakes in the kitchen..
Seriously, I don't get why they do. I pull mine back and roll down the Windows so the wind can blow in my face

You should record it every time and make a compilation video of girls flipping their hair while sitting at a red light

Sorry, no help here, either! I'll run my fingers through it while it's drying, to avoid it drying in a flat sad lump, but that's about it. Once it's dried, I pull it back and done.
Maybe there's a good song on her radio. |

It's to kind of reorganize it. Men with long hair do it just as often, and I used to have beautiful long hair.

Why is this only a question to the ladies?!? As a child of the 60's & 70's: hair flipping was a necessity! I'd still do it but for obvious reasons

I flip the bit of hair I got... Not like a valley girl, but a flip none the less; it's the easiest way I have found to get it to go this way or that without using hands / tools
I guess most folks wit longerish hair flip it never seen Metallica???

When I still had the hair to do it (....and I'm still under 30. sad times), and in a configuration that permitted it, I'm sure I flipped mine occasionally. Oddly enough, I think I still do the motion sometimes, though it's not conscious enough for to pinpoint when or why. Just feels right I guess?

I wondered why folks without the proper amount of hair looked like they were trying to flip it... I always thought it was the emperors new hairdo
I found the more time goes by the less new "music" seems remotely musical Rappers mumble and pass off zibba zabba zuppa zuppa zuuuuu as music

I sometimes reposition my hair when stopped at the lights. If left to its own devices my hair likes to go frizzy and make knots.

I encountered that very same "rubber" situation in middle school (6-8th grade), though she had just relocated from Australia.
America seems to be the strangest former colony, linguistically at least.

I feel you bro... here in Malaysian we converse and have our education using the Queen's english, but our TV shows are all from United States.
So there are some mixed up in nouns, spelling and even pronunciation.
