<p>[QUOTE="Gus Tuason, post: 5494744, member: 10012"]I have read (Don't remember where) that many women had hair braiding tables and made hair rememberances of their loved ones, living and dead. A favorite was watch chains, made from their hair, for their husbands. Each time he checked the time he would be reminded of her. The same notion went for lockets hung from watch chains; a photo of her and a lock of hair. This practice is backed up by the action of lovers desiring and coveting a lock of a loved ones hair. This is a much more enjoyable way of viewing hair jewelry be it true or false.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
