I think I will lead a happy life if I do not ever allow bleach or bleach solution to touch my skin. Seeing as how I do not plan to perform barehanded surgery in my living room, or other bizarre emergencies that might require the sudden application of cleaning products.
It's difficult to do this, as bleach is a vital part of my bathroom cleaning regimen and tends to get on me regardless of glove usage. But I can (thankfully) say that I've never applied it deliberately to skin as part of a grooming regimen.
I think the key to Lara Flynn Boyle's magic powers or lack of same WRT bleach is it was such an odd rumor, and concerned a subject sufficiently gross that people didn't want to spend time thinking about it. By contrast, getting drunk/high, naked, and overly chummy with an unwilling stranger on a transcontinental flight in front of multiple witnesses is the sort of thing that will have tabloid editors dancing in the streets like performers in a Busby Berkeley musical.

As far as I can tell, there's no place online you can buy a hair shirt.
This seems like an obvious gap. Where do holy hermits get their supplies?

I thought they made it with their own hair, ala the Manson Wives.

meamaximaculpa.com is for sale, if anyone's looking to fill an obvious niche....
I was going to say. If you care enough to wear a hair shirt, you care enough to grow your own materials to make a hair shirt.
I bet you do not even use a sewing machine when assembling it. (N.b. I have no idea how you actually make a hair shirt, but with a regular shirt, you would use a sewing machine, wouldn't you?)
Of course, I always wondered about "useful" things made out of hair, because anyone who has been to a barber shop knows hair is actually quite itchy and unpleasant. Which is the point, with a hair shirt (or anyway, suffering is the point), but what about horsehair couches? Do these people not believe in padded springs or goosedown or frelling cane chairs for crying out loud? You've got to make a couch out of horse hair??

Horsehair couches are smooth and shiny. The problem is sliding off the couch, not being prickled.
