Eyes playing tricks?

[1234]

Ok so we were on our boat today, and I was just holding our tube in the boat when I noticed, "holy crap there are like 10 or so long hairs on my legs!" And so ofcourse since I'm embarassed to be behind everyone else at my age, I was excited. Now im back home and it looks like I shorter hairs than before? :( This happened to anyone else before? Or does anyone have an explanation? Cause I know I saw them, but it's like they're only visible in sunlight or something...

were they wet? maybe when they were wet they appeared longer and darker then they really are. otherwise i haven't got a clue, a bit of a mystery!

[Look whos here!]

probably...

[Crazysam]

It could be the light from outside makes them look longer or maybe as trigger said they look longer when they are whet?

Oh yeah and Look whos here! how is that helping? please don't spam!

No they weren't wet, but the wind was blowing, and I think it might have been picking the hairs up or something, but still, I know they're there... :D

ye that happened to me coz ive got blond hair and ive got black hair everywhere else its just the sunlight

[1234]

Oh that's wierd, cause like...I saw them, I don't think the sun would just elongate the hairs...who knows.

[sassy boi]

dnt wory bout it they will come sometime or other mine just came in about 2 months not even that

[1234]

That fast? ...You grew hair on your legs in 2 months?! Wow that seems fast.

also, the sun breaches hair sometimes, to differnt colours, normaly lighterr, but my brothers hair (hair on his head) goes darker. :)

maybe if you have fine leg hair, like your blonde, then when the sun/water catches/gets on them it looks longer, fuller and darker
