Hair growing into feet - Myth??? Fact???

[jellobird]

So I'm in cosmetology school and we are told not to wear open-toed shoes b/c if a cut hair gets stuck in your skin (like a splinter) it will grow toward blood supply - even all the way to the bone!

One teacher says she actually saw this happen to a co-worker: she went to pick off a little piece of hair and it was like 2 inches long and grown into her foot!

Sounds feasible, I guess, but might be a load of crap. Can anyone provide a good explanation on this????

Never heard of that, and it kinda sounds like a load of crap to me.

That sounds like a load of bull to me as well.

 

[*~Deena~*]

That's creepy.

 

[pinksugar]

lol agreed sounds like bull. I wonder if it's true or not? maybe it's just their way to scare you into wearing closed in shoes for OH and S reasons?? LOL

 

[KellyB]

BS for sure. No open toe shoes for OSHA regulations, yes. Wild, wicked hairs escaping into your blood stream............nahhhh.

 

[Ashley]

Not true at all!

 

[BeneBaby]

No way. She just wants everyone to wear closed shoes.

 

[PerfectMistake]
