In Topic: Giving Up Shampoo.....

One of the common things to do is to use conditioner instead of shampoo to wash your hair, as often as needed, even daily. This doesn't strip the oils from the hair like shampoo does, but it still cleans off things like smoke, smog, and dirt. This is particularly effective with curly hair, which is always in need of more conditioning. Fine hair, and wavy hair can use a weekly wash with real shampoo in addition to the daily wash with conditioner. I did this for months, and it works very well. The part I didn't like was the need to rinse my hair with water every day to get it to curl properly. It was LONG, and took the better part of the day to dry.

In Topic: Retirement (Non Imm O-A) Visa Covers A Non-Thai Wife?

Having lived in the Philippines for 4 years, and in Thailand for 3, I think the OP is deluded if he believes that living in Thailand is going to be different from living in the Philippines. I would suggest he consider Malaysia instead.

I also want to warn the OP that the dependent extension of stay for his wife based on his retirement extension of stay is an iffy thing. Shortly before I got mine it wasn't being issued at all, and a return to that policy is always possible. Immigration law in Thailand is whatever the local immigration officers say it is.

But why all this talk of flights to KL to get visas? We entered on tourist visas, and made a quick and inexpensive border run to Laos for our non-immigrant O visas.
