Does hair grow faster when your hair stylist is on vacation?

So you're going along fine, your hair may be needing some attention in the near future, and then wham! You decide to book an appointment with your hair stylist, and she's on vacation!

From that fateful moment on, your hair goes wild.

Your locks that were not too bad - a bit unruly but manageable with some effort - now become a lion's mane of tangles, and you roar like a lion when your brush gets stuck in a mass of hair that really needs to be brushed but is too long and unruly to tame.

Is it just a matter of perception? Has the decision to get your hair done biased you towards watching it grow, as your hair stylist sips fruity drinks on a beach somewhere? Does it become an obsession, making you think about it constantly, making it seem longer than it is? Or does the hair actually get stimulation from you thinking about it? Does this stimulation encourage more hair growth?

After many years of hair maintenance, and many hair stylists, I think hair does grow faster when your hair stylist is on vacation.
