WOW this brings back memories
!!! When I was child my Mom had bent over the sink all the time. We used to place a towel on the part where the counter and the sink meet so I had some cushion to rest my chin/neck area.
I hated it. Sometimes you felt like you were going to drown because of how the water would trickle down your face, into your nose
. Mom-dukes had to make due with what she had and everyone in my family was doing it that way. It didn't seem out of the norm for us.
It did stop once I reached late elementary school, middle school because I did my own hair by then. I wouldn't even consider it now simply for all the stress on your neck - OW!
Wow... hadn't thought about that reggie in years... Thanks for the flashback!!!
