I have battled with weed for the past 12 years and have quit more than 10 times, everywhere from a whole year to a month or so... For some reason I am smoking it again!!! *grrrrr* I don't do it much during the week, but if I have an open weekend with nothing on it's cone after cone after cone after cone (you get the picture...)
I hate the sh*t... it really stuffs around with me - makes me lazy and irritable in the mornings. I can definitely control it, but over the next few weeks I will be quitting it altogether, at least until Christmas time. I have never noticed a difference between smoking and not smoking as far as hair treatment is concerned, although when I was smoking every day and then didn't have it for a week or so, my stress levels would be sky high - which is definitely counteractive for my treatments.
I suppose if taken in excess (like ridiculous amounts) it would take a toll on your hair. But it would take a toll on everything, general health included.

If I had some thing that smelled and tasted just like some good herb but didn't get me stoned I would be a lot better off.
I can't stand the taste or smell of it! I'm the opposite, I like the high. The other day I was cleaning my tonsils with a cotton tip and proceeded to barf the meal I had just eaten straight into the basin. After that my eyes swelled right up and watered and went red - it felt like I was stoned, just 'cos of the eyes. I thought to myself, that if I could just do that every afternoon I wouldn't ever need weed....
...maybe I'd end up with Bulimia - but at least I'd be kicking the weed habit *lol*
