As for pickup lines, "love your roots" would be a first (as far as I know). At least, no one has ever used it on me.
I really do appreciate you and help (both Bobs??) advising me! I soaked the roots, as well as misted them. I know now what you mean about
misting to remove the smaller pieces. You were right...I was amazed.
Thanks again,
Vicki

I agree with Help above - I'd try to remove as much of the old as possible. I've done the "just plop it in" and usually regret it. Another thing to try is to use a fine spray to rinse out the smaller chunks. Once you get an opening, by moving the spray around, it's amazing how much you can get out. Just don't use a really high pressure. If it feels gentle on my wrist, I use it. If it feels like needles, I turn it down.
