    Did you know that the Irish people have the dirtiest hair in the world? It’s a proven fact.

    don’t believe me?

    just go to any swimming pool in Ireland and it is mandatory to wear swimming hats.

    now go anywhere else in the world and see if you have to wear a swimming hat in their pools


    🤷‍♂️

    It's not the dirtiness of the hair that's the problem. It's the looseness.

    It's just the naturally forming hair gel known as mank.

    You need to travel more. I've seen caps required in many countries.




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 69,592 ✭✭✭✭L1011


    Caps are quite common in other countries, as sometimes are tight fitting swimwear to reduce the amount of hair that might come from, well, not your head.

    The pool I use has a rule "No Petting".

    Suppose that's why I never see dogs or cats swimming there.

    My missus is a hairdresser and barber, she says mostly young fellas that are the worst for dirty hair

    Is it true that nits only infect people with clean hair?

    what about Muslims with big beards do they need beard hats ?

    In Iceland you have to shampoo your pubes and armpits before they'll let you in the pool. And the showers are communal.

    I'm not Muslim (I wouldn't be able to give up pork products), but I do have a big beard. In the few occasions I've gone swimming since having a big beard, no one has ever said anything. But in my defence, I tie it up if I'm going swimming. Mostly because if I didn't I'd look like a wet homeless person. And I can't do the slow mo wet hair flip women do, except backwards. I'll take my eyes out.

    But in my extremely limited employment in a barbers (I was 17, I was sweeping floors and got "promoted" to washer), the dirtiest hair were the men who think coming straight from a building site was acceptable. Trying to wash steel out of already wiry hair is not fun.

    Delivery charges must be ridiculous. Don’t blame you.

    Shave your pubes to swim faster.
