The Hair Care Family

This is another site that I created. It's mane theme is Hair Care, but it has forums
for just about any topic you wish to discuss except for X-rated type stuff. I created
this site as a way for the people I've met over the past 7 years to have a place to
come to and feel like part of the family no matter what the topic was of the place I
had met them. Some came from Lighthouse sites and some came from Hair related.
If you would like to come and get to know us better than please feel free to join.
I will do my best to keep the place clean and friendly. After all it is a family site.
