MORE than one-third of Canadian women have worked from home, skipped a party or worn a hat because of a bad hair day, a recent survey found.
The Angus-Reid poll was commissioned by hair-care company John Frieda and conducted in February.
The survey also found that more than half of Canadian women (58 per cent) colour their hair. More women in Quebec colour their hair than any other province (66 per cent) and British Columbia reported the least number of women who colour their hair (49 per cent). Of women who currently colour their hair, 51 per cent colour their hair regularly at home.
Almost half of Canadian women (45 per cent) reported having straight hair, 39 per cent said wavy and 15 per cent said curly. Nearly a third of women with curly hair said the biggest challenge they have with their hair is it gets frizzy. If women were able to choose their hair type, 30 per cent said they would prefer straight hair.
