No More Fluffy Alice Hair!
I have thick, blond hair that is healthy, but likes to get big and puffy. Sometimes, I’m sure I look like the blond sister of the Dilbert character, Alice – you know, the one with the triangle of hair on her head…
Anyway, I think I have finally found a hair product that has tamed my fluffy hair. I got smooth, straight hair by using TRESemme Thermal Creations Straightening Gel and a blow dryer – that is it. No round brush. No straightening iron. Finally.

If you’ve ever asked yourself a question like this, you were contemplating “Evolutionary Psychology.”
According to Wikipedia, “Evolutionary Psychology (EP) is an approach to the entire discipline that views human nature as a universal set of evolved psychological adaptations to recurring problems in the ancestral environment.”
In plain English, EP is the study of why human traits, behaviors, and preferences that seem to contradict scientific explanation have developed.
For example, throughout history the concept of birthdays and age did not always exist. Since the goal of all living things is to reproduce, men were looking for young healthy women to bear children. Since the man couldn’t ask for a woman’s driver’s license to check her age, he had to use physical clues. In a warm climate, large breasts might be a sign of youth because large breasts age and sag with time more obviously than small breasts. In colder climates where layers of clothes hide the body, blond hair could’ve been a sign of youth as naturally blond hair grows darker with age. These preferences stuck with men in their pursuit for partners.
If these theories interest you like they interest me, I encourage you to read Why We Love: The Nature and Chemistry of Romantic Love by Helen Fisher. More good reading can be found at the Evolutionary Psychology portion of Psychology Today.
