I've read good things about it. If you've ever seen me though, you'd know I don't have much to contribute to the patch. LOL!

Aren't there too many chemicals in Human hair? You know, from styling, coloring, etc.

Most hair is cut before coloring, perming, and styling.

This has been discussed before. Something about using hair to keep away deer and other critters last year.

Hair........human and pet variety are good additives. Beware that they decompose very slowly. My use is every week into the compost. It takes about a whole summer to decompose hair. You know you have overdone it when the worms of the pile show up in fur coats.
