Antennae are jointed, at least at the base, and generally extend forward from the head. They are sensory organs, although the exact nature of what they sense and how they sense it is not the same in all groups, nor always clear. Functions may variously include sensing touch, air motion, heat, vibration (sound), and especially olfaction (smell) or gustation (taste).
Eventually Samson tells Delilah that he will lose his strength with the loss of his hair.
So with the basis of my theory above, apply that to everything you see in life. You should see that we are swimming in a collection of these "mini-magnets", and we call it AIR. The air is to humans as the water is to fish. Both air and water are made of atoms. This means all humans are connected with the same transmission medium.
Your bones, your blood, your skin and your hair are all made of "mini-magnets" too. Actually your entire brain is made of magnets that interact with each other.
You can even think of your hair as being magnetic flux lines exiting your body.
While keeping this theory of hair acting as antenna in mind, I have noticed a few things with people. I have noticed that women with long hair are sometimes more sensitive emotionally then women with short hair. I also noticed that men with long hair are more feminine then men with short hair. This is not always true...
This also brings up questions about shampoo and conditioners, and their unknown effects. I believe that some shampoos and conditioners actually make the hair more weak. It could be negatively effecting our minds.

You just kind of went on about a bunch of anecdotal observations you made.

Hair length and color can influence personality (more the latter than the former) and hair length is probably a result of personality.

It's kind of wrong to call the brain a bunch of "magnets" because they interact electrically rather than magnetically or electromagnetically.
Every electron, on account of its spin, is a small magnet (see Electron magnetic dipole moment).

As for eating certain proteins to prevent baldness, that doesn't make immediate sense without any study because it's more of a hormone problem than not having enough protein to make more hair. Your body just decides to stop producing it.

We are not physically a part of the transmission medium, it exists separately from us. If you are inferring that all humans are connected because of this, it's incorrect. If not, my apologies.

I'm not sure what you're trying to imply here. The magnetic force that you keep referring is actually the Strong Magnetic Force. It's what keeps things on the atomic level together and does not serve as a means for communication.

I don't think that's an accurate assessment at all. Hair grows the way it does because of how the hair follicle is positioned. It can also stand on end because of our emotional state or physical condition, e.g. cold, scared, hot, etc. The only time hair changes from magnetics is when we pass an electric current through our body.
This is not always true...

None of these are really true, though.

Things that are sometimes true don't have any scientific basis. Hair doesn't sense emotions and feelings.

It's an outgrowth of dead protein that can be physically moved to send signals to the brain (hair inside the ear) or act as filters (hair inside the nose).

Emotions don't send any measurable disturbances through the air. Any sensing we do is from face recognition and how well we know the person.

Performing experiments on yourself can easily be self fulfilled. If you wanted to do a real experiment, you would bring in hundreds of people and let them observe others having intimate conversations, and record the results. That's actual evidence.

A persons natural hair colour and style doesn't say anything about them unless were talking about genetics. Artificial styling however definitely does say something.

You'll find that there are only a few active ingredients in things like shampoo, and they're practically the same as the ingredients in soap. It's all about removing dirt.

If a chemical effects our mind, it's because it was absorbed into the bloodstream and taken to the brain, not an easy task when washing hair.

As far as stories from The Bible go, they don't really have any place in science.

Actually you are incorrect. Separation is an illusion that fools you. Your skin, and hair, are electrons, protons, and neutrons with electromagnetic interactions. The air around you is the same thing. You are in constant electromagnetic interactions, and you breath air which is also inside of you causing electromagnetic interactions.
You must not think of things as separate "elements" because all "elements" are made of the same thing, electrons, protons, and neutrons. There are also a few reasons why we ARE directly connected tot he medium.
I believe that the human hair is capable of sensing weak electromagnetic signals, much like a real radio antenna does. Both hair, and radio antennas are made of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Actually I have proof that the human body as a whole could work as an antenna, I'm sure you have had to adjust a radio/tv antennae before, and got a better signal just by touching the metal.
Hair, is made out of electrons, protons, and neutrons, which all can pretty much be called mini-magnets. This itself is proof that hair is just a stream of magnetic force.
Hair is also widely known to give electrons away, and cause strong electrostatic forces. Electrostatics and magnetism can be linked together with equations of moving charges.
Actually with simple RESEARCH!!, you can find a lot of neat information.
Here is a patent for a "Bio-enhanced magnetic device for promoting hair growth". www.freepatentsonline.com...
Here is a system that claims to uses magnetic force to strengthen hair:
www.la-story.com...
Actually with a few simple searches you can find a lot about magnetism and hair. Keep in mind, this thread is not created around these devices or systems, I didn't know about them till now. But I know magnetism has always been known to be a body healer.
It doesn't?? Now you are pretending to "know" when you don't have a damn clue. You even said yourself there is not YET any "scientific basis" that is why I am trying to find one. Then you go and say something like it is a fact. That is pretty rude.
So this entire time you been skeptical about my information, but then right here and now you say "physically moved to send signals to the brain".
You just proved me correct. Of course, you are unaware of the other signals your hair can send to your brain, because you are ignoring micro effects of electromagnetic interactions and waves in the air. You are thinking wind, I am thinking electromagnetic waves. Get it?
There is actually "brain wave" measuring devices that can sense different emotions. These "brain waves" are being sent out into the medium we call "air" and CAN actually be sensed by many people.
I am not doing "experiments" on myself, however, I did realize my sensing abilities were different when I grew my facial hair. This led me to wonder about the electromagnetic waves/interactions that the hair could possibly sense.
Actually, in science, COLOR is based on light. Actually, when you have dark hair it collects more light. When you have blond hair, it reflects more light. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? I was wondering how this has an effect on brain waves, and what the brain sense. When someone has dark hair, and they are absorbing more light, it must have an effect on the brain. When you bleach your hair to be blond, that new color will reflect light, having a totally different effect. These things have never been studied which is why I am studying it. UNDERSTAND?
Really? You are completely wrong again. Actually a lot of hair products these days are aimed at "strengthening the hair", or "making the hair more shinny", or "making the hair thicker, fuller", also there are MANY different "fragrances/smells". Also there is medicated shampoo that help with dandruff, and other scalp problems.
WRONG again. Wow, you are on a record. I have another thread called "skin absorbs" and it shows how your skin absorbs! Much like nicotine patches, birth control patches, and other things you rub on your skin, your skin absorbs them, and gets into your blood stream.
Because of your lack of knowledge on this subject, I will go easy on you.
There are many ancient texts, including the Bible, and many others, that have a lot of scientific knowledge in them, that was lost. Hair being one of them.
I was wondering why a lot of religions don't allow males to cut their hair. Also, there is a lot of texts that have lots of information about hair that is not known anywhere else. This was another reason for the creation of this thread.
Do you know why some religions aren't supposed to cut their hair?? Most likely not..
