Day 3 of the Pavlok Journey.
02:52I've been following the 5 day course that is recommended to do whilst using the Pavlok and todays task was to write down the following answers to these questions: Pros of stopping the bad habit, Cons of stopping the bad habit, Pros of continuing the habit, Cons of Continuing the habit.
So I figured what a better place to record this than on here, I wont lose it and its here for my record.
1. Pros of stopping the bad habit-
- Save a load of money by not having to spend £300/£400 on a wig each time.
- Not worry about my appearance and people judging me on how my hair looks.
- Grow back my long luscious thick silky locks.
- Go swimming and do other activities with no fear of my wig coming off or getting damaged.
- Do stuff with my hair I can't do on lace front wigs.
- Get my hair styled and coloured at a salon.
- In the future when getting married, I can do so with all my own natural hair.
- Running my hands through my hair
- Other people touching my hair, without me tensing up and worrying about being judged.
2. Cons of stopping the bad habit-
- There are none its a disorder, except maybe missing the sensation of the hair being removed from my head but for me thats not a real con.
3. Pros of continuing the habit-
- There are none except feeling satisfaction from the sensation it gives to my head and the release it gives. Again not a real Pro.
4. Cons of Continuing the habit.-
- Feel ugly, low self-esteem.
- Low confidence.
- Hair may not eventually grow back
- Spending loads of money for the rest of my life.
- When living with someone having to wear a wig all the time.
- Missing out on more opportunities because of my anxiety.
- Never getting to experience going to a hair salon.
- Never getting to feel the wind blow through my hair.
Stay true, stay positive, stay realistic.

Hey! How's it going with the Pavlok? Is it helping you be more aware/resist pulling?
ReplyDeleteHi Maneesh,
DeleteI haven't pulled in 3 weeks today!! It’s going great, I actually haven't needed to use my Pavlok since, I am using it now for trying to cut out sugar.
