msg[1] = "Wearing braids that are too tight or too long may cause hair loss or baldness. Traction alopecia is a form of gradual hair loss caused by hair being too tight with too much tension being applied.";
msg[2] = "Contrary to popular belief, pulling out a gray hair will not cause seven to grow back. It can, however cause damage to the root, preventing any other hairs from growing back.";
msg[3] = "The first curling iron was invented in 1875, by a Frenchman named Marcel Grateau";
msg[4] = "The first hair dryer was the vacuum cleaner! Around the turn of the 20th Century people dried their hair by connecting a hose to the exhaust of their vacuum cleaners. In 1920 the first hair dryer came to market, but it was extremely bulky. It wasn't until 1951 that the first really workable one was made.";
msg[5] = "Shampoo works by removing dirt and excess sebum from the hair's surface.  Shampoos that are too harsh can strip away your hair's protective sebum, that necessary natural oil that keeps hair moisturized and healthy.";
msg[6] = "Some ancient cultures, including, Egyptians, shaved most or all of their hair as a way to avoid infection by head lice.  To replace the shaved hair, they wore wigs. The wigs also protected them from the sun and helped keep their heads cooler.";
msg[7] = "Hair grows the best between 10am-11am and again between 4pm-6pm.";
msg[8] = "Hair grows faster in the summer than the winter.";

msg[11] = "Hair loss is usually only visible after losing more than 50% of the hair.";
msg[12] = "Temporary and semi-permanent hair colors are the safest choice for damaged, chemically straightened or permed hair.";
msg[13] = "Many people may believe that when shampooing your hair, the more suds you see the better. However, suds have nothing to do with a shampoos cleansing ability. Shampoos with less-foaming ability are actually gentler on the hair.";
msg[14] = "Hair loss is usually only visible after losing more than 50% of the hair.";
msg[15] = "One type of hair loss attributed with extreme physical and emotional stress is alopecia areata. Alopecia areata is a more serious hair loss condition that may affect the entire scalp and body. Hair may grow back on its own, but treatment may also be required.";
msg[16] = "You do not have to change to different shampoos in order to keep them effective. Hair cannot tell the difference or build up tolerance for one product or another. It is more important to find a shampoo that best suits your hair type.";
msg[17] = "Temporary and semi-permanent hair colors are the safest choice for damaged, chemically straightened or permed hair.";
msg[18] = "Do not use overly hot water to rinse conditioner from your hair because it will damage your scalp. ";
msg[19] = "One type of hair loss attributed with extreme physical and emotional stress is Telogen Effluvium. Telogen Effluvium is more common and less severe; the hair usually grows back in about 6 to 9 months.";
msg[20] = "Shampoo works by removing dirt and excess sebum from the hair's surface. Shampoos that are too harsh can strip away your hair's protective sebum, that necessary natural oil that keeps hair moisturized and healthy.";
msg[21] = "The only areas of the human body without hair follicles are the lips, the palms of the hands, and the soles of the feet.";
msg[22] = "Wet hair is up to 30% weaker than dry hair, so handle damp strands carefully. Wait until your hair is dry before doing any heavy brushing, combing, or styling.";
msg[23] = "Hair's primary purpose is to offer warmth and protection.";
msg[24] = "Hair grows about one half-inch (1.2 cm) per month. Normal healthy hair is as strong as copper wire of the same diameter.";

msg[26] = "Wearing braids that are too tight or too long may cause hair loss or baldness. Traction alopecia is a form of gradual hair loss, caused by hair being too tight with too much tension being applied.";
msg[27] = "Do not use petroleum based products such as Vaseline to oil your dry scalp. Petroleum jelly based products clog the scalp and suffocate the hair follicle, which slows down hair growth or stops growth completely.";
msg[28] = "When applying relaxer make sure you do not apply the relaxer directly to the scalp. Applying relaxer directly to the scalp may cause scalp irritation or burning.";
msg[29] = "Brushing thinning hair will not make it fall out faster. Although excessive brushing is discouraged, normal brushing will not increase the normal loss of hair from the scalp. If you are suffering from a hair loss condition such as alopecia daily brushing will only cause you to lose hair that was already ready to fall out.";
msg[30] = "The average non-damaged strand of hair is strong enough to suspend 3 1/2 oz (100 grams) in weight. ";
msg[31] = "When shampooing hair, concentrate on massaging the hairs near the scalp and allow shampoo to slide down the hair shaft as it is being rinsed out. Lathering the entire head creates tangles.";
